Welcome to the 2020 WikiCup!

Happy New Year, Happy New Decade and Happy New WikiCup! The competition begins today and all article creators, expanders and improvers are welcome to take part. If you have already signed up, your submissions page can be found here. If you have not yet signed up, you can add your name here and the judges will set up your submissions page. We are relaxing the rule that only content on which you have completed significant work during 2020 will count; now to be eligible for points in the competition, you must have completed significant work on the content at some time! Any questions on the rules or on anything else connected to the Cup should be directed to one of the judges, or posted to the WikiCup talk page. Signups will close at the end of January, and the first round will end on 26 February; the 64 highest scorers at that time will move on to round 2. Good luck! The judges for the WikiCup are Sturmvogel 66 (talk · contribs · email), Godot13 (talk · contribs · email), Vanamonde93 (talk · contribs · email) and Cwmhiraeth (talk) 11:43, 1 January 2020 (UTC)

In view of your recent interest [1], would you consider submitting a review at Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/INTERFET logistics/archive1. Hawkeye7 (discuss) 01:08, 27 January 2020 (UTC)

@Hawkeye7: It is interesting indeed, thank you for working on it! I plan to write a review, right now I'm just reading it slowly. Meanwhile I'll edit here and there if I feel it's obvious, feel free to change them if my edits are not appropriate. HaEr48 (talk) 03:58, 27 January 2020 (UTC)

Thank you today for Muhammad II of Granada, about "the second monarch of Nasrid Granada (the last Muslim state in Spain). He had a rather long life and managed to ensure the survival of his small kingdom by defending and often manouvring against its larger neighbors."! --Gerda Arendt (talk) 06:51, 22 January 2020 (UTC)

@Gerda Arendt: You're welcome, I hope it is an enjoyable read. HaEr48 (talk) 03:59, 27 January 2020 (UTC)
