The third round of the 2021 WikiCup has now come to an end. Each of the sixteen contestants who made it into the fourth round had at least 294 points, and our top six scorers all had over 600 points. They were:

  • Botswana The Rambling Man, with 1825 points from 3 featured articles, 44 featured article reviews, 14 good articles, 30 good article reviews and 10 DYKs. In addition, he completed a 34-article good topic on the EFL Championship play-offs.

In round three, contestants achieved 19 featured articles, 7 featured lists, 106 featured article reviews, 72 good articles, 1 good topic, 62 good article reviews, 165 DYKs and 96 ITN items. We enter the fourth round with scores reset to zero; any content promoted after the end of round 3 but before the start of round 4 can be claimed in round 4. Please also remember that you must claim your points within 14 days of "earning" them (one contestant in round 3 lost out because of this). When doing GARs, please make sure that you check that all the GA criteria are fully met.

If you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is at good article nominations, a featured process, or anything else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews Needed (remember to remove your listing when no longer required). Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. If you wish to start or stop receiving this newsletter, please feel free to add or remove yourself from Wikipedia:WikiCup/Newsletter/Send.

Updating Baptist Health Infobox

Hello Andrew nyr, I noticed you are part of WP:Hospitals. Baptist Health recently had a leadership transition and the article doesn't reflect it. I do have a COI with Baptist Health so I will not edit the article. Would you be open to review the reference and help to update the Infobox with the new CEO?

  • Infobox: Michael A. Mayo (CEO)[1]

Please let me know if you have any questions! Best --Chefmikesf (talk) 19:37, 15 July 2021 (UTC)

I will work on it to reflect updated information asap :) should happen in the next few days around my busy work schedule. Thanks, 2601:81:4000:1264:CEF:BC2C:AA26:BBBA (talk) 01:35, 16 July 2021 (UTC) 2601:81:4000:1264:CEF:BC2C:AA26:BBBA (talk) 01:35, 16 July 2021 (UTC)

Thanks, Andrew nyr! --Chefmikesf (talk) 17:01, 19 July 2021 (UTC)
