WikiCup 2015 launch newsletter

Round one of the 2015 WikiCup has begun! So far we've had around 80 signups, which close on February 5. If you have not already signed up and want to do so, then you can add your name here. There have been changes to to several of the points scores for various categories, and the addition of Peer Reviews for the first time. These will work in the same manner as Good Article Reviews, and all of the changes are summarised here.

Remember that only the top 64 scoring competitors will make it through to the second round, and one of the new changes this year is that all scores must be claimed within two weeks of an article's promotion or appearance, so don't forget to add them to your submissions pages! If you are concerned that your nomination will not receive the necessary reviews, and you hope to get it promoted before the end of the round, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews. However, please remember to continue to offer reviews at GAN, FAC and all the other pages that require them to prevent any backlogs which could otherwise be caused by the Cup. As ever, questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup and the judges are reachable on their talk pages. Good luck!

WikiCup 2015 March newsletter

That's it, the first round is done, sign-ups are closed and we're into round 2. 64 competitors made it into this round, and are now broken into eight groups of eight. The top two of each group will go through to round 3, and then the top scoring 16 "wildcards" across all groups. Round 1 saw some interesting work on some very important articles, with the round leader Freikorp (submissions) owing most of his 622 points scored to a Featured Article on the 2001 film Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within which qualified for a times-two multiplier. This is a higher score than in previous years, as Godot13 (submissions) had 500 points in 2014 at the end of round 1, and our very own judge, Sturmvogel_66 (submissions) led round 1 with 601 points in 2013.

In addition to Freikorp's work, some other important articles and pictures were improved during round one, here's a snapshot of a few of them:

Cwmhiraeth (submissions) took Bumblebee, a level-4 vital article, to Good Article;
AHeneen (submissions) worked-up the Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 article, also to Good Article status;
Rodw (submissions) developed an extremely timely article to Good Article, taking Magna Carta there some 800 years after it was first sealed;
And last but not least, Godot13 (submissions) (FP bonus points) worked up a number of Featured Pictures during round 1, including the 1948 one Deutsche Mark (pictured right), receiving the maximum bonus due to the number of Wikis that the related article appears in.

You may also wish to know that The Core Contest is running through the month of March. Head there for further details - they even have actual prizes!

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. Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. Good luck!

Possible attempt to circumvent AfD process

Please be aware: shortly after you closed the Andrew McMillen AfD as Keep, User:E.M.Gregory made 14 consecutive edits within the span of 29 minutes that cumulatively reduced file size by 17,885 bytes (80.5% of article). As much as I revere the core principle of Wikipedia:Assume good faith, I'm concerned that this aggressive editing may have in effect nullified your decision. JohnValeron (talk) 18:19, 13 March 2015 (UTC)

I'd say there was a consensus that it would need to be trimmed if kept. Much of the current material is not coming from good sourcing and a bad practice for BLPs. I don't agree with the close rationale, but a keep/no consensus outcome was certainly well within the closer's discretion.--Milowent • ^hasspoken 18:35, 13 March 2015 (UTC)

Trimmed? If I go to a barber and ask for a trim, and she shears away 80.5% of my hair, I'd call that more than a trim. JohnValeron (talk) 19:00, 13 March 2015 (UTC)

Yes, I did. The article/AFD had piqued my interest. I several times weighed in with comments. I had had read both the article and comments carefully, and searched the web for sources, before indicating that in my opinion that the article should be kept but pared down to bare bones, an opinion with which several editors had agreed. All of this was so recent, that upon noticing the article closed as keep, I felt entirely confident in immediately excising large chunks of material that the subject of the article and many, many editors had characterized as inadequately sourced hype. I am not aware of a rule that editors who participated in an AFD are barred form ammending the article afterwards, (indeed, I did so this week in a parallel case Kenneth G. Eade), have I violated such a rule?E.M.Gregory (talk) 18:37, 13 March 2015 (UTC)

This is really just a content dispute and there is no bad faith from anyone, so it could just be discussed at the talk page of the article from now on.--Milowent • ^hasspoken 19:19, 13 March 2015 (UTC)

Restoration of Article

Hi J04n, I was just starting the article on this subject Shekhar Chatterjee when I found that it was already been deleted quite recently!!!! After reading through the Article for Deletion there is no doubt that article was written in a promotional manner in the past and that too by a person in close relation with the subject!!! (hiatus) However, before proceeding for Article creation, I would like to know any objections from your side because you were the closing administrator!!! It's always better to write an article in a more neutral way and more importantly if it's of a living person then it should definitely abide WP:BLP and WP:GNG. Urbantown (talk) 09:50, 18 April 2015 (UTC)

Hello, I suggest that you work on the article here User:Urbantown/Shekhar Chatterjee and when you believe it meets notability guidelines let me know and I'll take a peek at it. J04n(talk page) 13:39, 18 April 2015 (UTC)

Hello Thanks I think that's fine. It's always better to make a draft before moving a disputed article to main space.!!!!! Urbantown (talk) 15:58, 18 April 2015 (UTC)

Baten Kaitos soundtracks

File:Baten Kaitos Origins Original Soundtrack.jpg, which you uploaded, is actually the cover art for the soundtrack of Baten Kaitos: Eternal Wings and the Lost Ocean. Note that the amazon.com page you linked to says its Original Release Date was November 16, 2004. Baten Kaitos Origins wasn't published until 2006. Baten Kaitos: Origins Original Soundtrack § External links has a link to the cover art for the Origins CD, under its alternate title Baten Kaitos 2. – Wbm1058 (talk) 15:12, 2 May 2015 (UTC)

See Talk:Baten Kaitos: Origins Original Soundtrack. Maybe you can restore File:BKO Soundtrack.jpg if you can provide the correct use rationale. I'm assuming that file has the correct cover art for Origins. Regards, Wbm1058 (talk) 15:19, 2 May 2015 (UTC)

WikiCup 2015 May newsletter

The second round one has all wrapped up, and round three has now begun! Congratulations to the 34 contestants who have made it through, but well done and thank you to all contestants who took part in our second round. Leading the way overall was Cas Liber (submissions) in Group B with a total of 777 points for a variety of contributions including Good Articles on Corona Borealis and Microscopium - both of which received the maximum bonus.

Special credit must be given to a number of high importance articles improved during the second round.

Coemgenus (submissions) was one of several users who worked on improving Ulysses S. Grant. Remember, you do not need to work on an article on your own - as long as each person has completed significant work on the article during 2015, multiple competitors can claim the same article.
Cwmhiraeth (submissions) took Dragonfly to Good Article for a 3x bonus - and if that wasn't enough, they also took Damselfly there as well for a 2x bonus.
LeftAire (submissions) worked up Alexander Hamilton to Good Article for the maximum bonus. Hamilton was one of the founding fathers of the United States and is a level 4 vital article.

The points varied across groups, with the lowest score required to gain automatic qualification was 68 in Group A - meanwhile the second place score in Group H was 404, which would have been high enough to win all but one of the other Groups! As well as the top two of each group automatically going through to the third round, a minimum score of 55 was required for a wildcard competitor to go through. We had a three-way tie at 55 points and all three have qualified for the next round, in the spirit of fairness. The third round ends on June 28, with the top two in each group progressing automatically while the remaining 16 highest scorers across all four groups go through as wildcards. Good luck to all competitors for the third round! Figureskatingfan (talk · contribs · email), Miyagawa (talk · contribs · email) and Sturmvogel 66 (talk · contribs · email) 16:35, 4 May 2015 (UTC)

Joseph Reagle

Hey, just letting you know that I'm re-creating the page for Joseph Reagle. Since the article's deletion in March he's received additional coverage for a book he wrote (which would merit its own article) and for a chapter he wrote in a book that was released last year. It's enough to where he'd easily pass notability guidelines now because his work has received quite a few reviews and coverage - his chapter in the 2014 book has received specific mention in various reviews, plus I'm finding where his work is somewhat regularly being used as a reference. I say somewhat regularly since I don't see where he's peppered the academic world with as many journal articles as others have. In any case, I wanted to give you a head's up about this. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 04:37, 11 July 2015 (UTC)

Initially I was going to wait until I'd talked to you before full out re-creating the article, but I kept finding sources for his book chapter which kind of pushed the whole thing. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 04:38, 11 July 2015 (UTC)

Looks great, strong work. J04n(talk page) 13:44, 11 July 2015 (UTC)

Thanks! I was sort of afraid that I was really stepping on your toes by un-redirecting it before asking you despite adding the sources, so I'm glad to see you say that! Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 03:29, 12 July 2015 (UTC)

WikiCup 2015 September newsletter

The finals for the 2015 Wikicup has now begun! Congrats to the 8 contestants who have survived to the finals, and well done and thanks to everyone who took part in rounds 3 and 4.

In round 3, we had a three-way tie for qualification among the wildcard contestants, so we had 34 competitors. The leader was by far Casliber (submissions) in Group B, who earned 1496 points. Although 913 of these points were bonus points, he submitted 15 articles in the DYK category. Second place overall was Coemgenus (submissions) at 864 points, who although submitted just 2 FAs for 400 points, earned double that amount for those articles in bonus points. Everyone who moved forward to Round 4 earned at least 100 points.

The scores required to move onto the semifinals were impressive; the lowest scorer to move onto the finals was 407, making this year's Wikicup as competitive as it's always been. Our finalists, ordered by round 4 score, are:

Cas Liber (submissions), who is competing in his sixth consecutive Wikicup final, again finished the round in first place, with an impressive 1666 points in Pool B. Casliber writes about the natural sciences, including ornithology, botany and astronomy. A large bulk of his points this round were bonus points.
Godot13 (submissions) (FP bonus points), second place both in Pool B and overall, earned the bulk of his points with FPs, mostly depicting currency.
Cwmhiraeth (submissions), first in Pool A, came in third. His specialty is natural science articles; in Round 4, he mostly submitted articles about insects and botany. Five out of the six of the GAs he submitted were level-4 vital articles.
Harrias (submissions), second in Pool A, took fourth overall. He tends to focus on articles about cricket and military history, specifically the 1640s First English Civil War.
West Virginian (submissions), from Pool A, was our highest-scoring wildcard. West Virginia tends to focus on articles about the history of (what for it!) the U.S. state of West Virginia.
Rodw (submissions), from Pool A, likes to work on articles about British geography and places. Most of his points this round were earned from two impressive accomplishments: a GT about Scheduled monuments in Somerset and a FT about English Heritage properties in Somerset.
Rationalobserver (submissions), from Pool B, came in seventh overall. RO earned the majority of her points from GARs and PRs, many of which were earned in the final hours of the round.
Calvin999 (submissions), also from Pool B, who was competing with RO for the final two spots in the final hours, takes the race for most GARs and PRs—48.

The intense competition between RO and Calvin999 will continue into the finals. They're both eligible for the Newcomers Trophy, given for the first time in the Wikicup; whoever makes the most points will win it.

Good luck to the finalists; the judges are sure that the competition will be fierce!

I've removed the WP:BLPPROD from Lim Yee Ko on a technicality: to be valid, the article must have been created after 18 March 2010, and this article dates from 2007.

WikiCup 2016 is just around the corner...

Hello everyone, and we would like to wish you all a happy holiday season. As you will probably already know, the 2016 WikiCup begins in the new year; there is still time to sign up. There are some changes we'd like to announce before the competition begins.

After two years of serving as WikiCup judge, User:Miyagawa has stepped down as judge. He deserves great thanks and recognition for his dedication and hard work, and for providing necessary transition for a new group of judges in last year's Cup. Joining Christine (User:Figureskatingfan) and Jason (User:Sturmvogel 66) is Andrew (User:Godot13), a very successful WikiCup competitor and expert in Featured Pictures; he won the two previous competitions. This is a strong judging team, and we anticipate lots of enjoyment and good work coming from our 2016 competitors.

We would also like to announce one change in how this year's WikiCup will be run. In the spirit of sportsmanship, Godot13 and Cwmhiraeth have chosen to limit their participation. See here for the announcement and a complete explanation of why. They and the judges feel that it will make for a more exciting, enjoyable, and productive competition.

The discussions/polls concerning the next competition's rules will be closed soon, and rules changes will be made clear on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Scoring and talk pages. The judges are committed to not repeating the confusion that occurred last year and to ensuring that the new rules are both fair and in the best interests of the competition, which is, first and foremost, about improving Wikipedia.

If you have any questions or concerns, the judges can be reached on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, on their talk pages, or by email. We hope you will all join us in trying to make the 2015 WikiCup the most productive and enjoyable yet. You are receiving this message because you are listed on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Newsletter/Send.
