2022 or 2023?

Are you sure about this edit? It concerns a date in July 2022, but we are in 2023.Paradise Chronicle (talk) 04:40, 1 March 2023 (UTC)

@Paradise Chronicle: I always forget what year it is -- In actu (Guerillero) Parlez Moi 13:31, 2 March 2023 (UTC)
Don't worry, I also wrote the wrong year sometimes, specially in the first months of a new year.Paradise Chronicle (talk) 15:30, 2 March 2023 (UTC)

WikiCup 2023 March newsletter

So ends the first round of the 2023 WikiCup. Everyone with a positive score moved on to Round 2, with 54 contestants qualifying. The top scorers in Round 1 were:

  • Unlimitedlead with 1205 points, a WikiCup newcomer, led the field with two featured articles on historical figures and several featured article candidate reviews.
  • New York (state) Epicgenius was in second place with 789 points; a seasoned WikiCup competitor he specialises in buildings and locations in New York.
  • Germany FrB.TG was in third place with 625 points, garnered from a featured article on a filmmaker which qualified for an impressive number of bonus points.
  • United States TheJoebro64, another WikiCup newcomer, came next with 600 points gained from two featured articles on video games.
  • Byzantine Empire Iazyges was in fifth place with 532 points, from two featured articles on classical history.

The top sixteen contestants at the end of Round 1 had all scored over 300 points; these included Berkelland LunaEatsTuna, Thebiguglyalien, Sammi Brie, New England Trainsandotherthings, England Lee Vilenski, Indonesia Juxlos, Unexpectedlydian, Washington (state) SounderBruce, Wales Kosack, BennyOnTheLoose and Chicago PCN02WPS. It was a high-scoring start to the competition.

These contestants, like all the others, now have to start again from scratch. The first round finished on February 26. Remember that any content promoted after that date but before the start of Round 2 can be claimed in Round 2. Some contestants made claims before the new submissions pages were set up, and they will need to resubmit them. Invitations for collaborative writing efforts or any other discussion of potentially interesting work is always welcome on the WikiCup talk page. Remember, if two or more WikiCup competitors have done significant work on an article, all can claim points. 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 Needed.

If you want to help out with the WikiCup, please do your bit to 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!

Four Award

Four Award
Congratulations! You have been awarded the Four Award for your work from beginning to end on Marriage License. — Bilorv (talk) 19:21, 20 March 2023 (UTC)

Would you mind undeleting this for a spell (and its redirects)? I'll convert it to a category like Category:International Digital Organization for Scientific Information academic journals so WP:CITEWATCH doesn't get borked. Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 19:49, 23 March 2023 (UTC)

@Headbomb: The article doesn't contain a list of journals and I only deleted 1 redirect 10.26420. -- Guerillero Parlez Moi 20:16, 23 March 2023 (UTC)
Weird, I thought there were more redirects to it. I'll create thing from scratch then. Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 20:48, 23 March 2023 (UTC)

In my opinion, the page should have been moved without leaving a redirect. An article on Pictochat only is not a list of messaging applications, so the redirect would be misleading. If you could delete the redirect as WP:G6 cleanup that would be great, to avoid having to bring it to WP:RFD. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ () 07:58, 24 March 2023 (UTC)

Relist

Hi. You left no explanation in your relist here, so I will ask, how is there a lack of consensus? In my view POLCON leaves no ambiguity, and a manual of style guideline has no bearing on the issue of inclusion of content. Avilich (talk) 22:31, 23 March 2023 (UTC)

@Avilich: I felt that the discussion could use more input seeing that it is fairly evenly split. -- In actu (Guerillero) Parlez Moi 09:04, 24 March 2023 (UTC)

Triple Crown

I'm very pleased to present the Imperial Napoelonic Triple Crown Jewels to Guerillero, for your work on "Did you know?" and the good and featured article processes! — Bilorv (talk) 11:41, 25 March 2023 (UTC)
