Ole Ole[edit]

Hey..yes i'm loving that snippet of Follow The Leader...the video looks so interesting too :)..i see some have been giving a bit of trouble on the DA page, lol. Also sorry for adding lots to critical reception, i realize how psycho i was being LOL u know how i am just too damn excited. −Arrekea(Talk) 06:27, 1 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I know you're excited, but there's no need to go crazy like that. ;) As I said, reviews will be coming in shortly. — Status (talk) 13:13, 1 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
lol yea i know i just said sorry ;-) Yep i know haha i'm so excited about the video....ahhhhh it's gonna be great! :) −Arrekea(Talk) 13:42, 1 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Did you see the video screenshot? Reminds me of JoJo's "In the Dark". — Status (talk) 13:43, 1 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I really like the beginning of the extended remix... yes hhaha i saw that she looks so cute in that ;-) −Arrekea(Talk) 00:28, 2 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Did u hide that sentence about DA being her first release under EPIC in 3 years?..why?.. −Arrekea(Talk) 01:37, 2 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, because it sounds weird. — Statυs (talk) 01:45, 2 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
LOL. Umm can you help me source the stuff which is from General References, (using page numbers) That person won't give up lol. −Arrekea(Talk) 01:54, 2 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Actually nm. −Arrekea(Talk) 01:56, 2 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hey[edit]

Would you mind commenting on Wikipedia:Featured list candidates/List of songs recorded by Leona Lewis/archive1 please? Aaron You Da One 12:19, 1 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

 Done — Status (talk) 12:46, 1 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I wish I hadn't even asked. Aaron You Da One 12:55, 1 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Her album articles aren't in very bad shape at all. It shouldn't be hard to take some info from there about the music, themes, etc of her albums and put it in the lead. Right now it's blah. I know how leads can be. They're a bitch. It takes FOREVER to perfect it. Reason why I still haven't nominated JLo's songs article. — Status (talk) 12:58, 1 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I have used the info from her album articles, but that wasn't really what I was getting at. Aaron You Da One 13:00, 1 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
If you don't want to do my suggestion, you don't have it; it's just that - a suggestion. I just think it would be a much more accurate portrayal of her recordings. I'm not saying you can't include those random facts, but if it's random fact after random fact, it doesn't add much. — Status (talk) 13:04, 1 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
It's not really any different to List of songs recorded by Rihanna, which I promoted to FL. Leona's follows the exact same structure. Aaron You Da One 13:06, 1 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Well, yeah, it kind of is. You worked longer at it, so in result it has a better flow. Just work at it. I'm sure there's more you can add. Talk about how most (if not all) of her songs are ballads, etc. — Status (talk) 13:12, 1 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Leona's is shorter as she has two released studio albums, Rihanna has six. Aaron You Da One 13:17, 1 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you[edit]

Hi there, I just wanted to stop by and thank you for your compliments on all the Y&R character pages we created. It was a long process that included finding sources so your thank you goes a long way :) Creativity97 13:59, 1 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

It's no problem at all! I hope both you and Soap plan on getting the articles to good article status! If y'all ever need help with that; I'm here. Cheers, — Statυs (talk) 14:02, 1 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
It would be great for that to happen! I'm still working on bettering them; I'm not really sure how to approach getting them to good article status. PS - No need to post a talkback, I'll check back here. Creativity97 14:05, 1 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, it will definitely take some work. I'm not sure on how a list of characters would go over, but you should probably look for some examples, since all articles are required to have a good lead. But I'm sure that wouldn't be too hard to do, to basically summarize all the characters. Gotcha. — Statυs (talk) 14:10, 1 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Picture of Carey on a song by Lopez[edit]

Are you even going to explain why a picture of Mariah Carey is placed prominently on a song by Jennifer Lopez? Or does the reader have to work that out? Currently this article shows more of Carey, who had absolutely nothing to do with it, than Lopez. Can you also explain why we even need this picture? Why L.A. Reid and not Pitbull, or Redone, or Casper Smart, or even Ryan Seacrest? Reid is just a suit, no-one cares what he looks like, especially not with Carey. --Escape Orbit (Talk) 14:07, 1 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, that L.A. picture is the only one that is uploaded on Wikipedia; it is used on his own article. Mariah has nothing to do with it. It says specifically in the caption: "(right)", meaning he is the one on the right. The background info is—or will be when completely expanded—mostly focused on the whole L.A. signs J.Lo to Island then leaves 6 months later to join her former label, in which she then rejoins. It is an important part of the song's background. There are no available pictures of RedOne or Casper on Wikipedia; and more than one more picture can be placed in the article, for Pitbull. Cheers, — Statυs (talk) 14:16, 1 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
How about cropping it? Right now I imagine most people's reaction on viewing the page is "What's Carey doing there? I thought J.Lo sang this?" Right now she is the elephant in the room that the article doesn't even mention. I don't feel my understanding of the article subject is added to by this photo, if anything it confuses it. Reid's significance to the song is not explained by having a picture of him standing next to another singer, who had nothing to do with it. I also think his significance to the song overall is being over-played. Do we know he played any part in it, or has his involvement simply changed which label it appears on? He may be playing a key role Lopez's career, that should be mentioned in Jennifer Lopez's article, but is he really that important to this particular song? --Escape Orbit (Talk) 14:33, 1 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I suppose you're right; he doesn't have anything exactly to do with the song itself, at least not that we know of yet. Feel free to remove it from the article. — Statυs (talk) 14:37, 1 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Well do you think it could be transfered to Jennifer Lopez? There's may be something notable there. Or is it too speculative at the moment? --Escape Orbit (Talk) 14:40, 1 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Well, the information itself relates to the background of the song (what label it would be released under); it's just not enough to warrant the image. I believe the content is already present in her main article, just not into as much detail. — Statυs (talk) 14:42, 1 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Capping in FLC[edit]

I would have done that myself but for the life of me I couldn't find the easy template for it, which did you use, or did you copy hidden/FC etc. from another one? --Golbez (talk) 17:03, 1 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I just copied it from another one. xD — Statυs (talk) 17:20, 1 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks a lot for the praise. You just made my day! This song is one of the iconic songs of the last decade, so I just thought that it deserves a clean-up. :)My December (talk) 21:59, 1 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

My pleasure. I hope that you will be at work on her other song and album articles while you're at it. — Statυs (talk) 22:32, 1 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I will, one step at a time. Thanks again. My December (talk) 00:44, 2 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

HEY[edit]

WOW Dance Again has already charted on the Pop Songs Chart :-D And it keeps moving up on the US iTunes charts ;) So happy... −Arrekea(Talk) 00:45, 3 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I'm a little confused as to why. It was just released digitally today, and is being sent to radio tomorrow. Yeah, it's doing pretty good here in Canada too. :D Imagine tomorrow when there's a banner! And then after the Idol promo. — Statυs (talk) 02:18, 3 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Ikr? It's amazing...it could peak at #1 on that chart ;-) wow #11 on iTunes omg this is EXCITING yesss Canada has got Jen's back!!! OMG Yes i saw the banner, and i can't believe in a few minutes/hours it will be in the top 10 of iTunes, PLUS Idol!!! YIKES. Its gone blow up.... −Arrekea(Talk) 10:43, 4 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
LOL at the people who said it was gonna flop. It's even almost touching top ten on iTunes without any of the Idol promo to bump it. Straight to number one, here we come! — Statυs (talk) 10:44, 4 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Hahaa exactly..It actually did enter the top 10. Jenny is giving us a preview today on Idol, with the video 2moro ;) like she promised. Damn Kelly Clarkson needs to move lol, its back at 11 for now. The downloads are good but not that strong (but good without any promo, which proves she is still marketable as an artist without Idol) but damn the radios are behind her 100%, the airplay is so strong...YIKES i just saw, its down to 12 :-( Damn! −Arrekea(Talk) 00:50, 5 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Did you hear the leaked JLo song? I think she's making a new album. And because Marc isn't over her back, it will have lots of sexual themes...see lol "You Know You Really Wanna (HEY) Wanna Taste My (woohoo) You Know You Wanna Get a Peak Wanna See My (woohoo) You Know You Wanna Put Your Lips Where My Hips Are (woohoo) Kiss On My (woohoo) All Over My (woohoo) All The Boys Think Its Cake When They Taste My (woohoo) You Dont Even need A Plate, just Your face Ha ! (woohoo) Licky Licky Yum Yum What a Great Guy (woohoo)" omg if she is doing that i can't wait!! SHe can be free lol. −Arrekea(Talk) 00:59, 5 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

What are you talking about? That's a Christina Aguilera song. — Statυs (talk) 01:31, 5 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
WHAAA? Why did it leak with JLos vocals? Really? LOL idk i dont care about Christina or her music, is her song called Miami Taste? OMG facebook we must chat about something LOL −Arrekea(Talk) 07:52, 5 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hey[edit]

Are you sure about the writing & recording part? Also, wouldn't this statement:

During an interview with Ryan Seacrest, speaking on the concept behind the song, Lopez said "I love being able to collaborate with the producer RedOne again, and working with Pitbull again. We had a great chemistry the last time, and it was like ‘We’re going to have to do something again.’ And this was the perfect song. I love the message of the song. That when something bad happens, your life is not over. You have to get up. You’re gonna live. You’re gonna to be okay. You’re gonna dance again.”

be under writing & recording? Or is that more of a concept[tion] (Background) thing? Hm...Also, i want to write a small recap of the video, do i need a source for that? :) Hope u are online.. −Arrekea(Talk) 08:25, 6 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Background and conception aren't really the same. Background is the information about what happened before the song was formed. Yes, it would. When the CD single/album comes out, we can get who recorded it and when, etc. to add to the section as well. LOL IKR about the copying. "Waiting for Tonight" anybody? — Statυs (talk) 18:05, 6 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Hmm well okay, but i don't think we need the recording/writing section just yet... yesss lol those Beyonce & Rihanna fans need to get a life. They think she is copying UMbrella..um wth? LOL −Arrekea(Talk) 00:32, 8 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

How do you add Pictures?[edit]

I'm sorry if I'm wasting your time, but, how do you add pictures? I'm the guy that gave you the brownie for fixing the Gaga template. There are some pictures that need fixing and i need to know how. Thanks! Plmnji (talk) 23:09, 7 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. Sorry for the late response. I've been busy with Easter weekend and all. Add pictures to what? — Statυs (talk) 02:53, 9 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
What i mean, is how do you add pictures from another site on to a site that has never had pictures before? I couldn't find it on the help pages. Oh, and no need for the sorry, It's a busy week for me, too! Plmnji (talk) 02:59, 9 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not exactly sure what you mean. You want to upload a photo onto Wikipedia for use in a article? — Statυs (talk) 03:00, 9 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, and how do you upload it from another site? And if you still don't get it, we can just set it aside for tomorrow. Thank you! Plmnji (talk) 03:05, 9 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
What kind of image are you looking to upload? (Wikipedia:File Upload Wizard is where you go to upload it.) — Statυs (talk) 03:06, 9 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I always upload my pictures from Google Images. Does this have any significance? Plmnji (talk) 03:13, 9 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
It must be cited accordingly. And if it's of a celebrity, you have to make sure you know who the photographer was, and if s/he allows the image to be used. — Statυs (talk) 03:14, 9 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Accolades[edit]

Hi. I'm not sure about this "accolades" thing.. if see you go here an accolade is only something that she has won, and nominations don't count as accolades. It doesn't really matter if its shorter. Sorry, i'm not a bit..hm i don't agree with the title. Notice e.g. here Janet (album) when they list accolades, they only list the awards won. Please get back to me. I just wanna make the meaning of the word clear :) As in her being named "world's most beautiful women" in a accolade (honor) but Grammy nomination isn't because she didn't win anything.. And rankings are accolades. Get back to me.. −Arrekea(Talk) 07:07, 10 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

See Category:Lists of accolades by film and List of accolades received by David Lynch; most of which are FL. An accolade is, by definition:
A. An expression of approval; praise.
b. A special acknowledgment; an award.
Which applies to both an award (special acknowledgment) and a nomination (expression of approval). — Statυs (talk) 10:41, 10 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Dude, by the way, "Follow the Leader" is now out. And we don't have the page ready. — Statυs (talk) 11:07, 10 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
ahhh okay thanks :) I get it now. Hey, if you do this "film awards/music awards" where do we put the rest?!! AH.... Also i know its not good quality but can we use the pic from 2008? Its either the 1 from 2004/2009 always :\ Anyway, imma count up all of acting/singing awards individually, add that in, but for total awards, can i just do an overall thingy? :-) −Arrekea(Talk) 13:28, 10 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
^Ignore my top comment, i see what you mean...by Title do you mean Grammy for music/MTV Movie Award (just these two as examples)?? Sort of like that. Okay :) Imma do that now. Tbh i don't really care about Follow the Leader..ask me if you want anything for the page, but otherwise i won't work on that out of want lol. −Arrekea(Talk) 13:34, 10 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
actually forget this LOL im such a flop at tryna add stuff into this new table for the awards page 0_0. You can do that... btw what do you think of the DA music clip synopsis? It was SO HARD to add things because there is just too damn much happening in the video so i didn't know what to put where. −Arrekea(Talk) 13:46, 10 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
LOL, yes. I was going to tell you about the infobox thing, but I was doing it as I was getting ready for school, so I didn't have time. Let me focus on that. Right now it's lunch break and I'm home for lunch. If you can, can you separate the film and music awards again? Have "film awards" and "music awards" as the second headings, and the award shows as third headings? Also, about the infobox, I did it like that (just in case you were wondering) because I noticed there are two separate infoboxes for musicians and actors. Seeing as how Jenny is both, we need to show both. It will be more work, of course, but it looks better. And we can have the correct title. Yeah, it looks good. LOL, IKR? So much going on. We'll get it eventually. — Statυs (talk) 15:08, 10 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Well hm i just found out synopsis for video clips don't need to be sourced. Damn my life and all the time i waste lmfao. Some ppl are really getting me mad, they are saying DA is going for a #45 debut/peak on the Hot 100, like WTF?! -.- true Jenny is just an exception for everything haha, she needs her own info-box for her main page, maybe a different color other then yellow/clear because she is both equally urgh. I think she has wayyy more music awards then film stuff. Okay. DA could go #1 on the Hot 100 at the start of May; she is going on Ellen, singing on Idol, and performing on heaps of shows! ;-) −Arrekea(Talk) 15:38, 10 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
btw i hope you actually are gonna help me find more awards :\ im positively certain she has more then 200+ we just need to work really hard to find them ;) −Arrekea(Talk) 04:35, 11 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

XD[edit]

LOL calm down hehe ;) I'm not actually going to make this into a page if thats what you were thinking, not after what happened to that List of Endorsements page you made. I was just bored and saw the Britney Spears products page so i wanted to see if i could make something like that for Jen but not a complete mess...lmaoo its my sandbox only, i'm allowed to do anything :\\... Anyway i'm gonna continue to work with it to see where it gets me. −Arrekea(Talk) 02:06, 12 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

LOL. I'm just saying. That page should be deleted, anyways (The Britney one). It's repetitive too. — Statυs (talk) 02:08, 12 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Yes but its just in my sandbox. I was also thinking of starting a sandbox for a page called Jennifer Lopez Business Ventures or sth similar to that—about Fashion lines, Nuyorican Products & Endorsements, and expand all of those subjects alot, and go in depth like it isn't done in her main page; then maybe if your okay with that being a page, i can just sum everything up in her life & career section, then once that is done, we can just re-title the heading to Biography...do you feel me? Or not...sort of how they make pages for ppl who are Gay Icons like Janet; but just about business. haha/ What do you think of 118k? −Arrekea(Talk) 02:19, 12 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Hmm... I don't know. I think it works much better as a stand-alone in the article. If it's all together; nobody can keep it straight. What do you mean by 118k? — Statυs (talk) 02:44, 12 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, i'm gonna do that in a sandbox (don't worry i won't publish anything). 118,000;what DA sold in first week...was it better or worse then you thought it would do?:( No top ten. −Arrekea(Talk) 03:11, 12 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Damn, 27 in the US; 13 in Canada. They shouldn't have released the video so soon. — Statυs (talk) 10:37, 12 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Yea im a bit disappointed, but hey, the most crucial week of sales (Idol finale, she'll also be on Ellen that week and i THINK DWTS) is at the beginning of May. It peaked similarly to Do It Well :( I hope it moves up next week. Its steady on iTunes. I hope it gets SOME Top 10 positions worldwide -.- Btw whats w/ that sandbox/person/one love thing LMAO ? −Arrekea(Talk) 12:24, 12 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
On the bright side, 1 week and it's already got a higher peak then Run The World (Girls) and Beyonce promoted that song like a fever and Jen has done...basically nothing lol. 13:08, 12 April 2012 (UTC)
Don't worry. I am pretty sure that the song will hit the Top 5 in the US. Since I am a Rihanna fan I can tell you some examples, "What's My Name? debuted at number 83, and after three weeks hit #1 :) ... "Only Girl (In the World)" was released even before "What's My Name?" but reached the top spot after it. — Tomica (talk) 13:19, 12 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, regarding the accolades page, i really don't like the awards info-box present its bulky and i think the old one is better (sorry) like List of awards and nominations received by Madonna - Madonna's one includes acting/singing awards. :| −Arrekea(Talk) 06:12, 16 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Im gonna change the accolades infobox, if you don't like it you can change it back ;). Hey, niceeee work done on her main info-box, love the signature, etc. You are right she needs a human info-box i wish we had a triple-threat info-box lmaooo. −Arrekea(Talk) 06:22, 16 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The Signpost: 16 April 2012[edit]

April 2012[edit]

Deliberately removed sourced material in favor of unsourced material, multiple times does constitute as disruptive editing, per Wikipedia policy. If the template chooses to use the word "vandalize", that is up to the decision of the policymakers on Wikipedia, take grievances up with them. The user has been warned three times for the same actions and I am acting accordingly. You may want to take the time to research certain situations before you abruptly interject your "opinion". Itsbydesign (talk) 02:59, 17 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

You could have simply left the user a simple message on their page. I get that you're upset with the user's disruptive edits (believe me, I've had disputes with him in the past), but what he's doing really isn't vandalism. {{Uw-nor1}} could work perfectly fine in this case, and if he passes four levels you can report him for it. All I'm saying is that what he was doing wasn't to purposely vandalism Wikipedia. — Statυs (talk) 03:06, 17 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
This has nothing to do with original research. The problem is the user is taking information that is properly sourced and replacing it information from vague or non-reliable sources. Once or twice is understandable but reverting edits due to lack of knowledge is not original research multiple times, is disruptive editing. As Wikipedia states, "Disruptive editing is a pattern of editing that may extend over a long time or many articles, and disrupts progress towards improving an article or building the encyclopedia. Disruptive editing is not usually considered vandalism, but vandalism can be disruptive". Thus, I used the appropriate template. If you have an issue with how it is worded, you can discuss the matter [2]. Itsbydesign (talk) 04:18, 17 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
"Disruptive editing is not always intentional. An editor may be accidentally disruptive because they don't understand how to correctly edit." I say that would apply here. I have no issue with the template; I have an issue with your use of it, as I've already told you. — Statυs (talk) 04:25, 17 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hi...[edit]

Hey, thanks for your comment here. I'm sorry for our conflict in the past :) By the way, what do you think about this? I notice that the song is played on radios all over Britain. I think it must be a promotional single there (radio-only release). Do we need to change the infobox of "Masterpiece"? Bluesatellite (talk) 11:43, 17 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

No problem at all! Do you have a source for said image? Looks like it's an official single to me. It charted the week of its radio release in the UK. Denoting a single release. — Statυs (talk) 02:09, 18 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I got that image from forums, maybe it's like a press release from the label. I think the song is hardly an official single. It's not qualified to be a "single", as there's no commercial release (separate digital download/CD single). British people can only download it from MDNA tracklist. Interscope and Madonna's management also seems unclear whether it is a single. Bluesatellite (talk) 10:55, 18 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

removal of sales update on Love?[edit]

Hey...why would you remove that on her discography page? When DA was released, Billboard reported that it had sold 316k and i updated it to 318 as Billboard reported a few days ago. If that source isn't reliable then neither is the one that says it sold 316k. −Arrekea(Talk) 01:31, 20 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I was reverting the vandalism to the singles my dear. You got caught in the cross fires. — Statυs (talk) 01:38, 20 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah i know, but still. Also, is this a bad source for ww sales of Love? [3] i thought it was a good one. And i didn't know notes were required [4], its kinda pointless. −Arrekea(Talk) 01:52, 20 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, it's under WP:BADCHART. Not really, it gives a number, but not what it means. The idea was born in Jenny's discography, and then moved onto to be a standard for all discographies. — Statυs (talk) 02:09, 20 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Wow I've never seen that wiki page, thanks there are some good guidelines there for charts and stuff ;) Also you still didn't say if that source was bad? −Arrekea(Talk) 02:41, 20 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
That's where it says it. — Statυs (talk) 02:58, 20 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Performance? Performance can mean voice, acting, stage performance, choreagraphy and other things. I think Music videos & choreography is more accurate for this section i created because it talks about her dancing genres etc and music videos....but whatever :\\ also we need to chat on FB lol tell me if you are free this weekend. −Arrekea(Talk) 07:45, 23 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

WikiCup 2012 April newsletter[edit]

Round 2 of this year's WikiCup is over, and so we are down to our final 32, in what could be called our quarter-finals. The two highest scorers from each pool, as well as the next 16 highest scorers overall, have entered round 3, while 30 participants have been eliminated. Pool B's Conradh na Gaeilge Grapple X (submissions) remains our top scorer with over 700 points; he continues to gain high numbers of points for his good articles on The X-Files, but also Millennium and other subjects. He has also gained points for a good topic, a featured list, multiple good article reviews and several did you knows. Pool E's Scotland Casliber (submissions) was second, thanks primarily to his biology articles, with Pool H's New York City Muboshgu (submissions) coming in third, with an impressive 46 did you knows, mostly on the subject of baseball. Casliber and Cwmhiraeth both scored over 600 points. Pools E and H proved our most successful, with each seeing 5 members qualify for round 3, while Pools C and D were the least, with each seeing only 3 reach round 3. However, it was Pool G which saw the lowest scoring, with a little under 400 points combined; Pool H, the highest scoring group, saw over triple that score.

65 points was the lowest qualifying score for round 3; significantly higher than the 11 required to enter round 2, and also higher than the 41 required to reach round 3 last year. However, in 2010, 100 points were needed to secure a place in round 3. 16 will progress to round 4. In round 3, 150 points was the 16th highest score, though, statistically, people tend to up their game a little in later rounds. Last year, 76 points secured a place, while in 2010, a massive 250 points were needed. Guessing how many points will be required is not easy. We still have not seen any featured portals or topics this year, but, on the subject of less common content types, a small correction needs to be made to the previous newsletter: File:Wacht am Rhein map (Opaque).svg, our first featured picture, was the work of both Vanuatu Matthewedwards (submissions) and United Kingdom Grandiose (submissions), the latter of whom has also gone on to score with File:Map of the Battle of Guam, 1944.svg. Bonus points also continue to roll in; this round, England Ealdgyth (submissions) earned triple points for her good articles on William the Conqueror and the Middle Ages, Casliber and Cwmhiraeth both earned triple points for their work on Western Jackdaw, now a good article, Michigan Dana Boomer (submissions) earned triple points for her work on lettuce and work by Bavaria Stone (submissions) to ready antimony for good article status earned him triple points. United Kingdom Jarry1250 (submissions) managed to expand Vitus Bering far enough for a did you know, which was also worth triple points. All of these highly important topics featured on 50 or more Wikipedias at the start of the year.

An article on the WikiCup in the Wikimedia Blog, "Improving Wikipedia with friendly competition", was posted at the end of April. This may be of interest to those who are signed up to this newsletter, as well as serving as another way to draw attention to our project. Also, we would again like to thank United Kingdom Jarry1250 (submissions) and Bavaria Stone (submissions), for continued help behind the scenes. As ever, if you are concerned that your nomination, be it at good article candidates, a featured process or anywhere else, will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews. Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. Good luck! If you wish to start receiving or stop receiving this newsletter, please feel free to add or remove yourself from Wikipedia:WikiCup/Newsletter/Send.
