Your WikiCup submission: Template:Did you know nominations/Example

Hi [USERNAME], thanks for participating in the WikiCup. You recently submitted Template:Did you know nominations/Example for DYK points, but unfortunately it is not eligible for DYK points because it was nominated to DYK as a newly promoted GA. I know this can be disappointing, but Wikipedia:WikiCup/Scoring#Did you know? states that only newly created or expanded DYKs are eligible for DYK points. The rules specifically exclude DYK submissions from receiving points if their appearance on DYK is solely because the article was a newly promoted GA. ~~~~

Your WikiCup submission: Example ITN

Hi [USERNAME], thanks for participating in the WikiCup. You recently submitted Example ITN for ITN points in the WikiCup, but you do not seem to have been a major contributor to the article (in fact, your name does not appear on the list of 10 top contributors to that page). Unfortunately, this is not eligible for points as a result. ~~~~

Your WikiCup submission: Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/Example

Hi [USERNAME], thanks for participating in the WikiCup.

For GAN reviews, you may claim your points when the review is passed, failed, or closed. ~~~~
