WikiCup 2014 April newsletter

Round 3 of the 2014 WikiCup has just begun; 32 competitors remain. Pool G's Adam Cuerden (submissions) was Round 2's highest scorer, with a large number of featured picture credits. In March/April, he restored star charts from Urania's Mirror, lithographs of various warships (such as SMS Gefion) and assorted other historical media. Second overall was Pool E's Godot13 (submissions), whose featured list Silver certificate (United States) contains dozens of scans of banknotes recently promoted to featured picture status. Third was Pool G's ChrisGualtieri (submissions) who has produced a large number of good articles, many, including Falkner Island, on Connecticut-related topics. Other successful participants included Cliftonian (submissions), who saw three articles (including the top-importance Ian Smith) through featured article candidacies, and Caponer (submissions), who saw three lists (including the beautifully-illustrated list of plantations in West Virginia) through featured list candidacies. High-importance good articles promoted this round include narwhal from Reid,iain james (submissions), tiger from Cwmhiraeth (submissions) and The Lion King from Igordebraga (submissions). We also saw our first featured topic points of the competition, awarded to Czar (submissions) and Red Phoenix (submissions) for their work on the Sega Genesis topic. No points have been claimed so far for good topics or featured portals.

192 was our lowest qualifying score, again showing that this WikiCup is the most competitive ever. In previous years, 123 (2013), 65 (2012), 41 (2011) or 100 (2010) secured a place in Round 3. Pool H was the strongest performer, with all but one of its members advancing, while only the two highest scorers in Pools G and F advanced. At the end of June, 16 users will advance into the semi-finals. If you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is at good article candidates, a featured process, or anywhere else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews. If you want to help out with the WikiCup, please do your bit to help keep down the review backlogs! Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. Good luck!

Article requests for the Arabic Wikipedia

Hi, Mohamed! Do you do article requests for the Arabic Wikipedia? Thanks WhisperToMe (talk) 15:48, 5 June 2014 (UTC)

Hey. Unfortunately I don't. I actually barely have 10 edits there. Perhaps I can help you with something related? Mohamed CJ (talk) 16:03, 5 June 2014 (UTC)

If it's okay... Do you know what the Arabic is for the full title of Zaat (book)? It is an Egyptian novel. Do you know if the part of the name "The Tale of One Woman's Life in Egypt During the Last Fifty Years" has an equivalent in Arabic? Or is the novel only called "Zaat" in Arabic? WhisperToMe (talk) 00:48, 6 June 2014 (UTC)

It's only known as "Zaat" (Arabic: ذات) in Arabic. This is Google books link and this is Goodreads link. Hope that helps. If you need anything else don't feel shy. Mohamed CJ (talk) 09:02, 6 June 2014 (UTC)

Thank you for your help! I'll check back if I have questions WhisperToMe (talk) 15:40, 6 June 2014 (UTC)

WikiCup 2014 June newsletter

After an extremely close race, Round 3 is over. 244 points secured a place in Round 4, which is comparable to previous years- 321 was required in 2013, while 243 points were needed in 2012. Pool C's Godot13 (submissions) was the round's highest scorer, mostly due to a 32 featured pictures, including both scans and photographs. Also from Pool C, Casliber (submissions) finished second overall, claiming three featured articles, including the high-importance Grus (constellation). Third place was Pool B's , whose contributions included featured articles Russian battleship Poltava (1894) and Russian battleship Peresvet. Pool C saw the highest number of participants advance, with six out of eight making it to the next round.

The round saw this year's first featured portal, with Sven Manguard (submissions) taking Portal:Literature to featured status. The round also saw the first good topic points, thanks to 12george1 (submissions) and the 2013 Atlantic hurricane season. This means that all content types have been claimed this year. Other contributions of note this round include a featured topic on Maya Angelou's autobiographies from Figureskatingfan (submissions), a good article on the noted Czech footballer Tomáš Rosický from Cloudz679 (submissions) and a now-featured video game screenshot, freely released due to the efforts of Sven Manguard (submissions).

The judges would like to remind participants to update submission pages promptly. This means that content can be checked, and allows those following the competition (including those participating) to keep track of scores effectively. This round has seen discussion about various aspects of the WikiCup's rules and procedures. Those interested in the competition can be assured that formal discussions about how next year's competition will work will be opened shortly, and all are welcome to voice their views then. If you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is at good article candidates, a featured process, or anywhere else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews.

WikiCup 2014 August newsletter

The final of the 2014 WikiCup begins in a few short minutes! Our eight finalists are listed below, along with their placement in Round 4:

1. Godot13 (submissions), a WikiCup newcomer, finished top of Pool A and was the round's highest scorer. Godot is a featured picture specialist, claiming large numbers of points due to high-quality scans of historical documents, especially banknotes.
2. Casliber (submissions) is a WikiCup veteran, having been a finalist every year since 2010. In the semi-final, he was Pool B's highest scorer. Cas's points primarily come from articles on the natural sciences.
3. Czar (submissions) was Pool A's runner-up. Czar's points come mostly from content related to independent video games, including both articles and topics.
4. Adam Cuerden (submissions) was Pool B's runner-up. Another featured picture specialist, many of Adam's points come from the restoration of historical media. He has been a WikiCup finalist twice before.
5. Cwmhiraeth (submissions) won the WikiCup in 2012 and 2013, and enters this final as the first wildcard. She focuses on biology-related articles, and has worked on several high-importance articles.
6. 12george1 (submissions) is the second wildcard. George's points come primarily from meteorology-related articles. This year and last year, George was the first person in the competition to score.
7. Sturmvogel 66 (submissions), the third wildcard, was the 2010 champion and a finalist last year. His writes mostly on military history, especially naval history.
8. Bloom6132 (submissions), the fourth and final wildcard, has participated in previous WikiCups, but not reached any finals. Bloom's points are mostly thanks to did you knows, featured lists and good articles related to sport and national symbols.

We say goodbye to this year's semi-finalists. Matty.007 (submissions), ThaddeusB (submissions), WikiRedactor (submissions), Figureskatingfan (submissions), Yellow Evan (submissions), Prism (submissions) and Cloudz679 (submissions) have all performed well to reach this stage of the competition, and we hope they will all be joining us again next year.

There are two upcoming competitions unrelated to the WikiCup which may be of interest to those who receive this newsletter. The Stub Contest will run through September, and revolves around expanding stub articles, especially high-importance or old stubs. In addition, a proposal has been made for a new competition, the GA Cup, which the organisers plan to run next year. This competition is based on the WikiCup and aims to reduce the good article review backlog.

There is now a thread for brainstorming on how next year's WikiCup competition should work. Please come along and share your thoughts- What works? What doesn't work? What needs changing? Signups for next year's competition will be open soon; we will be in touch. If, at this stage of the competition, you are keen to help the with the WikiCup, please do what you can to participate in review processes. Our finalists will find things much easier if the backlogs at good article candidates, featured article candidates, featured picture candidates and the rest are kept at a minimum. As ever, questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. Good luck!

Long time no see

Salam ale3kum bro. How are you doing? Looks like we haven't meet each other for more than a year lol Myronbeg (talk) 06:58, 6 August 2014 (UTC)

W.S. I'm very good, thank you for asking. I hope you are doing fine as well. I have much going on currently :) Mohamed CJ (talk) 04:03, 7 August 2014 (UTC)

You are welcome. I'm doing well fine. I was wondering what happen to your country lately since the conflicts happens in Syria-Iraq and Gaza. In fact, after all these sh*t that goes on, I kind of miss those early years of Arab Spring. I hope the Bahraini people don't pelt out their low-level rebellion against the monarchy, although I'm quite worried it will happen.

Also, recently I read this story that while Bahrain is revoking the opposition citizenship, at the same time they complaint about complaining about Qatar trying to naturalize the Bahrainis. I wonder why are they butthurt about it lol

PS: Nice photo avatar in your Twitter account. Myronbeg (talk) 04:14, 8 August 2014 (UTC)

Qatar naturalizing of Sunni Bahraini families goes against the political naturalizing plan of the Government of Bahrain. The GoB wants to increase the percentage of Sunnis in Bahrain by mass naturalizing of Sunnis from other countries, and then comes this Qatar and lures out the (original) Bahraini Sunnis? If Qatar had been naturalizing Shia Bahrainis, the GoB would have no problem. In fact, they might welcome/encourage it in secret. Sadly, we live in an era where sectarian thinking and strategies are the norm. Mohamed CJ (talk) 06:24, 9 August 2014 (UTC)

Sorry for my late reply, ya akh. Being busy preparing for my final exam for some period. :/

Now regarding the Bahrain-Qatar feud over naturalization of native Bahraini Sunnis. I think it is no doubt the Al Khalifa regime have good reasons to concern about this matter. If I am not mistaken these Sunnis are the ones forming the loyal base support for your country's regime for over 200 years, isn't it? So if these Sunnis are going to leave Bahrain then it would be hard trouble for the regime to find any guaranteed support from Bahraini natives (if don't include the Sunni immigrants).

As for the Qatari side, why do you think they are trying to naturalize these Bahraini Sunnis? Are they trying to take revenge against the coalition of Arab moderate axis (Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, UAE) over their foreign policy feud? I just found out this interesting article but I'm not too sure if what the author said is true. So I would prefer to hear an opinion from a native Bahraini.

By the way, I heard stories that the famous human rights defender Abdulhadi al-Khawaja begin his hunger strike and something wrong with his daughter Maryam. What really happened? Timing seems coincidental when my Masri friend told me many Egyptian activists in his country also announced their hunger strike lol Myronbeg (talk) 16:58, 5 September 2014 (UTC)

ArbCom elections are now open!

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Editor of the Week : nominations needed!

The Editor of the Week initiative has been recognizing editors since 2013 for their hard work and dedication. Editing Wikipedia can be disheartening and tedious at times; the weekly Editor of the Week award lets its recipients know that their positive behaviour and collaborative spirit is appreciated. The response from the honorees has been enthusiastic and thankful.

The list of nominees is running short, and so new nominations are needed for consideration. Have you come across someone in your editing circle who deserves a pat on the back for improving article prose regularly, making it easier to understand? Or perhaps someone has stepped in to mediate a contentious dispute, and did an excellent job. Do you know someone who hasn't received many accolades and is deserving of greater renown? Is there an editor who does lots of little tasks well, such as cleaning up citations?

Please help us thank editors who display sustained patterns of excellence, working tirelessly in the background out of the spotlight, by submitting your nomination for Editor of the Week today!
