Gracias por tu bienvenida

Hi Magiciandude, what a good reception at the Latin Music Project!! qué buena onda!! I am slowly creating articles that have been requested or that I find interesting about Latin music. I've added a couple of record labels about Cuban music and I've found a great source about Cuban music that I'll leave with you in case it's useful. Florida International University The Díaz Ayala Cuban and Latin American Popular Music Encyclopedic Discography of Cuban Music, Saludos --Miskito89 (talk) 12:35, 18 January 2021 (UTC)

@Miskito89: ¡Que bien! I noticed you also edit articles to music from Spain. The Latin music project also covers music in Spanish from Spain as we use the Latin Recording Academy's definition of "Latin music" for the project scope. Just thought you might wanted to know as well! And thanks for the links! Most of my articles I work are Spanish-language pop and tropical/salsa from the 1990s and onwards. I am currently working on songs that topped the Billboard Latin Pop Airplay and Tropical Airplay charts. Erick (talk) 15:10, 18 January 2021 (UTC)

K.O. (album)

Hello there! I saw your edits on Talk:K.O. (album) as you marked that the article was nominated for deletion on September 13, 2014. However, the article nominated for deletion in 2014 must had been an article for an album with the same title. The article K.O. (album) makes reference to an album released this year and belongs to the singer Danna Paola. Should we rename the article "K.O. (Danna Paola album)" to avoid future misunderstandings like this? Have a nice day! --Swe97 (talk) 12:48, 27 January 2021 (UTC) @Swe97: I didn't even notice the tag since I was just tagging WikiProjects. I think that's a good idea since the article used to be about another album. Erick (talk) 14:01, 27 January 2021 (UTC)

Good job on this so far, but do you think you will be able to go over the rest in the coming days? --K. Peake 18:49, 8 February 2021 (UTC)
Nice to see you've been at it again recently; when will the changes probably be fully implemented by? --K. Peake 13:14, 14 February 2021 (UTC)
@Kyle Peake: Looks like I'm in track finish within next week hopefully. The prose, for the most part, is done so now it's just the technical stuff. Erick (talk) 18:23, 16 February 2021 (UTC)
It has been on hold for quite a while by now, but that is acceptable with such a large article. --K. Peake 18:39, 16 February 2021 (UTC)
Would you be fine with me reviewing your songs GAN in the meantime, as that is quite a small article especially compared to this one? --K. Peake 21:52, 18 February 2021 (UTC)

WikiCup 2021 March newsletter

Round 1 of the competition has finished; it was a high-scoring round with 21 contestants scoring more than 100 points. Everyone with a positive score moves on to Round 2, with 55 contestants qualifying. You will need to finish among the top thirty-two contestants in Round 2 if you are to qualify for Round 3. Our top scorers in Round 1 were:

  • New York (state) Epicgenius led the field with a featured article, nine good articles and an assortment of other submissions, specialising on buildings and locations in New York, for a total of 945 points.
  • Republic of Venice Bloom6132 was close behind with 896 points, largely gained from 71 "In the news" items, mostly recent deaths.
  • Scotland ImaginesTigers, who has been editing Wikipedia for less than a year, was in third place with 711 points, much helped by bringing League of Legends to featured article status, exemplifying how bonus points can boost a contestant's score.
  • Rwanda Amakuru came next with 708 points, Kigali being another featured article that scored maximum bonus points.
  • Ktin, new to the WikiCup, was in fifth place with 523 points, garnered from 15 DYKs and 34 "In the news" items.
  • Botswana The Rambling Man scored 511 points, many from featured article candidate reviews and from football related DYKs.
  • Gog the Mild, last year's runner-up, came next with 498 points, from a featured article and numerous featured article candidate reviews.
  • Hog Farm, at 452, scored for a featured article, four good articles and a number of reviews.
  • United States Le Panini, another newcomer to the WikiCup, scored 438 for a featured article and three good articles.
  • England Lee Vilenski, last year's champion, scored 332 points, from a featured article and various other sport-related topics.

These contestants, like all the others, now have to start again from scratch. In Round 1, contestants achieved eight featured articles, three featured lists and one featured picture, as well as around two hundred DYKs and twenty-seven ITNs. They completed 97 good article reviews, nearly double the 52 good articles they claimed. Contestants also claimed for 135 featured article and featured list candidate reviews. There is no longer a requirement to mention your WikiCup participation when undertaking these reviews.

Remember that any content promoted after the end of Round 1 but before the start of Round 2 can be claimed in Round 2. 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 a good article candidate, a featured process, or something else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews.

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! If you wish to start or stop receiving this newsletter, please feel free to add or remove yourself from Wikipedia:WikiCup/Newsletter/Send. Sturmvogel 66 (talk) and Cwmhiraeth (talk).

WikiCup 2021 May newsletter

The second round of the 2021 WikiCup has now finished; it was a high-scoring round and contestants needed 61 points to advance to Round 3. There were some impressive efforts in the round, with the top eight contestants all scoring more than 400 points. A large number of the points came from the 12 featured articles and the 110 good articles achieved in total by contestants, as well as the 216 good article reviews they performed; the GAN backlog drive and the stay-at-home imperative during the COVID-19 pandemic may have been partially responsible for these impressive figures.

Our top scorers in Round 2 were:

  • Botswana The Rambling Man, with 2963 points from three featured articles, 20 featured article reviews, 37 good articles, 73 good article reviews, as well as 22 DYKs.
  • New York (state) Epicgenius, with 1718 points from one featured article, 29 good articles, 16 DYKs and plenty of bonus points.
  • Republic of Venice Bloom6132, with 990 points from 13 DYKs and 64 "In the news" items, mostly recent deaths.
  • Hog Farm, with 834 points from two featured articles, five good articles, 14 featured article reviews and 15 good article reviews.
  • England Gog the Mild, with 524 points from two featured articles and four featured article reviews.
  • England Lee Vilenski, with 501 points from one featured article, three good articles, six featured article reviews and 25 good article reviews.
  • Sammi Brie, with 485 points from four good articles, eight good article reviews and 27 DYKs, on US radio and television stations.
  • Ktin, with 436 points from four good articles, seven DYKs and 11 "In the news" items.

Please remember that DYKs cannot be claimed until they have appeared on the main page. As we enter the third round, any content promoted after the end of Round 2 but before the start of Round 3 can be claimed now, and anything you forgot to claim in Round 2 cannot! Remember too, that you must claim your points within 14 days of "earning" them (except for at the end of each round, when you must claim them before the cut-off date/time). 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.

The proper way to request articles at WP:RX

@آرمین هویدایی: and @FanDePopLatino:, I saw both of you requesting articles on WP:RX and would like to show the both of you how to properly request articles. They cannot handle large requests due to limited time and resources, so it's better to just focus on one album/song at a time, there is no limit on how many times you may request articles. For instance, [I requested https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Resource_Exchange/Resource_Request/Archive_106#Reviews_for_"Loco_de_Amor"_by_Jerry_Rivera_and_"Enamorado_Por_Primera_Vez"_and_"Miente"_by_Enrique_Iglesias] a few articles to help me work on Enamorado Por Primera Vez which I found on Newsbank. Usually the best way to find sources about a song is by finding reviews from the album it came from, but sometimes they may not mention the song at all. Also, when you obtain the sources, use {{cite news}} not {{cite web}}, you do not need an url as Offline sources are equally accepted on Wikipedia, but please be sure to include the page number if it is included. For sources from Newspaper.com only include link the page that is not accessible non subscribers, same thing with ProQuest as they only intended to be freely accessible for Wikipedia editors like us, use the subscription required tag for online news database that is paywalled. Newsbank tends to have to more offline sources, but they want you to sign up to even search for it which requires a subscription. Browse through the website on private mode and search on basic only, not advanced and then submit the articles you want to access on Newsbank to WP:RX. Again, you may use my Enamorado Por Primera Vez as a reference if you are not sure. Speaking of Newspaper.com, I have access to it, so I can lend both of you articles from it by e-mailing them to you. Erick (talk) 17:34, 4 May 2021 (UTC)

Oh, thank you so much for explaining this. آرمین هویدایی (talk) 19:52, 4 May 2021 (UTC)

Thanks Erick. I was wondering what I was doing wrong. I will try it again now. Also if you can lend me articles from Newspapers.com I would appreciate it. I have access to Newspapers.Archives.com and it has been a bit helpful. Thanks again! FanDePopLatino (talk) 03:53, 5 May 2021 (UTC)

Kyle Peake, Tbhotch my internet has been cut off so I won't be able to edit Wikipedia for 2 weeks. Erick (talk) 15:05, 3 July 2021 (UTC)
That is fine; Wikibreaks while reviews are placed on hold are acceptable as long as they don't last months, in which case the article would be almost destined to fail. --K. Peake 08:54, 4 July 2021 (UTC)

WikiCup 2021 September newsletter

The fourth round of the competition has finished with over 500 points being required to qualify for the final round. It was a hotly competitive round with two contestants, Botswana The Rambling Man and New York (state) Epicgenius, each scoring over 3000 points, and six contestants scoring over 1000. All but one of the finalists achieved one or more FAs during the round, the exception being Republic of Venice Bloom6132 who demonstrated that 61 "in the news" items produces an impressive number of points. Other contestants who made it to the final are Gog the Mild, England Lee Vilenski, Zulu (International Code of Signals) BennyOnTheLoose, Rwanda Amakuru and Hog Farm. However, all their points are now swept away and everyone starts afresh in the final round.

Round 4 saw the achievement of 18 featured articles and 157 good articles. George Floyd mural Bilorv scored for a 25-article good topic on Black Mirror but narrowly missed out on qualifying for the final round. There was enthusiasm for FARs, with 89 being performed, and there were 63 GARs and around 100 DYKs during the round. As we start round 5, we say goodbye to the eight competitors who didn't quite make it to the final round; thank you for the useful contributions you have made to the Cup and Wikipedia, and we hope you will join us again next year. For other contestants, remember that any content promoted after the end of round 4 but before the start of round 5 can be claimed in round 5. Remember too that you must claim your points within 14 days of "earning" them.

If you are concerned that your nomination, whether it be for a good article, 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).

"La Noche"

Thanks for restoring my mistake, I apologise for that... I was trying to add ratings for all of Cbl62's recent additions and accidentally overwrote that one. I'm wondering whether to upgrade the importance of some of the other songs as well, like "Cali Pachanguero" – it's almost impossible to go to any salsa party in Colombia and not hear this song. Richard3120 (talk) 14:12, 15 September 2021 (UTC)

Richard3120, It's cool and I trust your judgement. Even though I'm the creator of the project, whenever I reassessed a Latin music article's importance, I usually explain its justification on the edit summary so other editors can know why. So if "Cali Panchaguero" should at least be mid-importance because of the reason you mentioned, that's good enough for me. I'm honestly not all that picky about the importance scale anyway lol.

I had a look at the article and it is far from being ready. Other than dozens of broken references, the subject of unsourced genres was not handled. I think moving it back to main is premature and goes against the AfD decision. --Muhandes (talk) 13:33, 11 October 2021 (UTC)

@Muhandes: Fair enough, I'll admit I was in a bit of rush to get it out the way so I could focus on other articles and was going to source the genres eventually. I don't mind it being put back to the draft space as I'm personally done with the article and let others take care of it.. Erick (talk) 13:36, 11 October 2021 (UTC)

WikiCup & the Good Article Nomination Backlog Drive

Hi there, you're receiving this note because you're currently signed up for the 2022 WikiCup and don't yet have any points in the competition. As you may know, scoring any points in the first round is traditionally sufficient to advance to the second, and a fast way to get 5 points is to complete a good article review. Given that the January 2022 Good Article Nomination Backlog Drive is active for another 10 days, you might be interested in pitching in. Complete one review, and you'll be on to the next round in WikiCup; complete two or three, and you'll also be eligible to win some barnstars. As always, quality reviews with attention to detail are expected. Cheers, --Usernameunique (talk) 19:38, 22 January 2022 (UTC)

List of best-selling Latin albums translation request to Portuguese

@Alvoradaking:, @Nyvak:, since you both worked on translating my article List of best-selling Latin albums in the United States to Portuguese, I was wondering if either of you would like to translate List of best-selling Latin albums as well? The best-selling Latin albums includes Brazilian albums unlike the Latin albums in the US article. Erick (talk) 23:12, 1 March 2022 (UTC)

WikiCup 2022 March newsletter

And so ends the first round of the WikiCup. Last year anyone who scored more than zero points moved on to Round 2, but this was not the case this year, and a score of 13 or more was required to proceed. The top scorers in Round 1 were:

  • New York (state) Epicgenius, a finalist last year, who led the field with 1906 points, gained from 32 GAs and 19 DYKs, all on the topic of New York buildings.
  • Christmas Island AryKun, new to the contest, was second with 1588 points, having achieved 2 FAs, 11 GAs and various other submissions, mostly on the subject of birds.
  • Kingdom of Scotland Bloom6132, a WikiCup veteran, was in third place with 682 points, garnered from 51 In the news items and several DYKs.
  • Philadelphia GhostRiver was close behind with 679 points, gained from achieving 12 GAs, mostly on ice hockey players, and 35 GARs.
  • United Nations Kavyansh.Singh was in fifth place with 551 points, with an FA, a FL, and many reviews.
  • SounderBruce was next with 454 points, gained from an FA and various other submissions, mostly on United States highways.
  • United Nations Ktin, another WikiCup veteran, was in seventh place with 412 points, mostly gained from In the news items.

These contestants, like all the others who qualified for Round 2, now have to start scoring points again from scratch. Between them, contestants completed reviews of a large number of good articles as the contest ran concurrently with a GAN backlog drive. Well done all! To qualify for Round 3, contestants will need to finish Round 2 among the top thirty-two participants.

Remember that any content promoted after the end of Round 1 but before the start of Round 2 can be claimed in Round 2. Anything that should have been claimed for in Round 1 is no longer eligible for points. 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.

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

Women in Red

Hi there, Erick, and welcome to Women in Red. It's great to have such an accomplished contributor to Latin music as a member of our project. We look forward to lots of new biographies, perhaps initially in connection with our upcoming translation contest. Please let me know if you run into any difficulties or need assistance. Happy editing!--Ipigott (talk) 10:21, 27 March 2022 (UTC)

Thank you! I took the time to populate the category Women in Latin music. While I won't be participating in the translation contest, I will ask WiR from time to time for articles related to Women in Latin music, maybe make an incentive. BTW, I don't know if you already knew this, but every year, from September 15 to October 15, is Hispanic Heritage Month here in the US. Erick (talk) 21:17, 29 March 2022 (UTC)

WikiCup 2022 May newsletter

The second round of the 2022 WikiCup has now finished. It was a high-scoring round and contestants needed 115 points to advance to round 3. There were some very impressive efforts in round 2, with the top seven contestants all scoring more than 500 points. A large number of the points came from the 11 featured articles and the 79 good articles achieved in total by contestants.

Our top scorers in round 2 were:

  1. New York (state) Epicgenius, with 1264 points from 2 featured article, 4 good articles and 18 DYKs. Epicgenius was a finalist last year but has now withdrawn from the contest as he pursues a new career path.
  2. Christmas Island AryKun, with 1172 points from two featured articles, one good article and a substantial number of featured article and good article reviews.
  3. Kingdom of Scotland Bloom6132, with 605 points from 44 in the news items and 4 DYKs.
  4. Sammi Brie, with 573 points from 8 GAs and 21 DYKs.
  5. Ealdgyth, with 567 points from 11 GAs and 34 good and featured article reviews.
  6. United States Panini!, with 549 points from 1 FA, 4 GAs and several other sources.
  7. England Lee Vilenski, with 545 points from 1 FA, 4 GAs and a number of reviews.

The rules for featured and good article reviews require the review to be of sufficient length; brief quick fails and very short reviews will generally not be awarded points. Remember also that DYKs cannot be claimed until they have appeared on the main page. As we enter the third round, any content promoted after the end of round 2 but before the start of round 3 can be claimed now, and anything you forgot to claim in round 2 cannot! Remember too, that you must claim your points within 14 days of "earning" them. 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. Good luck! If you wish to start or stop receiving this newsletter, please feel free to add or remove your name from Wikipedia:WikiCup/Newsletter/Send.

I'm never quite sure what information to include in song chart featured lists, as generally the leads are a little too long to just include all of them, but choosing what to include is often better left to a subject expert. If you could look at Wikipedia:Wikipedia_Signpost/Next_issue/Featured_content#Featured_lists and edit the summary however you like (as long as it's not ridiculously longer than the other list's summary, it's fine), I'd appreciate it. Congrats, by the way: This has been a very slow month for featured lists (at time of writing, only two), and you got one anyway. (And I'd argue your lead was somewhat better written than the other, which I had to copyedit a bit.) Adam Cuerden (talk)Has about 7.9% of all FPs 12:17, 29 June 2022 (UTC)

WikiCup 2022 July newsletter

The third round of the 2022 WikiCup has now come to an end. Each of the sixteen contestants who made it into the fourth round had at least 180 points, which is a lower figure than last year when 294 points were needed to progress to round 4. Our top scorers in round 3 were:

  • Zulu (International Code of Signals) BennyOnTheLoose, with 746 points, a tally built both on snooker and other sports topics, and on more general subjects.
  • Kingdom of Scotland Bloom6132, with 683 points, garnered mostly from "In the news" items and related DYKs.
  • Sammi Brie, with 527, from a variety of submissions related to radio and television stations.

Between them contestants achieved 5 featured articles, 4 featured lists, 51 good articles, 149 DYK entries, 68 ITN entries, and 109 good article reviews. As we enter the fourth round, remember that 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. When doing GARs, please make sure that you check that all the GA criteria are fully met. Please also remember that all submissions must meet core Wikipedia policies, regardless of the review process.

If you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is a good article nomination, 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. Good luck!

"Te Felicito" Mexican certification

Hi Erick, quick question - an IP keeps adding a reference to this song being certified as Platinum + Gold in Mexico, but I keep checking the AMPROFON database and I can't see this song mentioned anywhere in the database. Am I just being blind and can't see the certification, or is this editor being disruptive? Thanks. Richard3120 (talk) 19:10, 6 August 2022 (UTC)

@Richard3120 No, you're not going crazy. I couldn't verify it either and removed it. If it continues, either report the IP or request a semi-protection for the page. Erick (talk) 13:46, 8 August 2022 (UTC)
Thanks, I just wanted to check it wasn't my mistake. I've left warnings on their talk page but they don't respond and continue re-adding the certification, so reporting them seems to be the only option left. Richard3120 (talk) 14:20, 8 August 2022 (UTC)

The fourth round of the WikiCup has now finished. 383 points were required to reach the final, and the new round has got off to a flying start with all finalists already scoring. In round 4, Bloom6132 with 939 points was the highest points-scorer, with a combination of DYKs and In the news items, followed by BennyOnTheLoose, Sammi Brie and Lee Vilenski.

Víctor Manuelle discography

Hi Erick, I've given the album section of this discography a complete revamp.. it was out of date, badly structured and unsourced. It's far from complete (no labels or release formats) and I suspect I'm missing several compilation albums... I'm not sure where the Gilberto Santa Rosa joint album Frente a Frente fits in, and I don't know whether Muy Personal was considered a studio album or a compilation, I may have put it in the wrong section. But I think it's now at least in the correct format and in a position where it can be added to and altered as necessary. Richard3120 (talk) 21:52, 7 October 2022 (UTC)

@Richard3120 Nice job man! I thhink Frente a Frente is a compilation album, as isMuy Personal. The latter is just a compilation of his ballads with a few new recordings. BTW, I don't remember if I mentioned this before, but have you seen List of best-selling Latin albums? I worked on that article a few years ago with several editors and currently on a best-selling Latin artists with other editors. I'm also working a "1970s in Latin music" article one of my sandboxes. And this is on top of me working on Latin pop and tropical songs that either #1 on their respective charts and/or won a Latin Grammy in their field. So much work to do here. And in another side project. I am trying to reach out to educational systems that might be interested in partnering with the Latin music project. Erick (talk) 02:19, 8 October 2022 (UTC)

Album Recommendation

I recently created this album page. I don't know if you've heard it before, but it's worth listening to if you enjoy the Calderon's ballads. Big production, similar to Luis Miguel's albums with Calderón, the keyboards sounds almost identical to Segundo Romance. It's a shame it was a commercial failure.

That's it 😁 have a nice one! Franlm14 (talk) 18:15, 17 October 2022 (UTC)

@Franlm14 Ah yes, I recognize him with the songs "Para Reconquistarte" and "Vida". I'll give it a listen when I have the chance. Good work on the article, are you planning to make that album GA? BTW, I found an image of JC Calderon and added it to his page. I myself already started working Draft:1990s in Latin music. Erick (talk) 14:32, 18 October 2022 (UTC)

Hello Magiciandude I recently created Draft:Darwin Del Fabro, about a queer Brazilian singer/actor and was hoping that you or another member of WP:BRA would be kind enough to take a look and let me know how it could be improved. Or, if it looks ok, to move it to the mainspace. Thank you in advance for your help and consideration Volcom95 (talk) 21:43, 11 October 2022 (UTC)

The 2022 WikiCup has drawn to a close with the final round going down to the wire. The 2022 champion is

  • England Lee Vilenski (1752 points), who won in 2020 and was runner up in both 2019 and last year. In the final round he achieved 3 FAs and 15 GAs, mostly on cue sports. He was closely followed by
  • Kingdom of Scotland Bloom6132 (1732), who specialised in "In the news" items and DYKs, and who has reached the final round of the Cup for the past three years. Next was
  • Zulu (International Code of Signals) BennyOnTheLoose (1238), another cue sports enthusiast, also interested in songs, followed by
  • New York City Muboshgu (1082), an "In the news" contributor, a seasoned contestant who first took part in the Cup ten years ago. Other finalists were
  • Sammi Brie (930), who scored with a featured article, good articles and DYKs on TV and radio stations,
  • United Nations Kavyansh.Singh (370), who created various articles on famous Americans, including an FA on Louis H. Bean, famed for his prediction of election outcomes. Next was

During the WikiCup, contestants achieved 37 featured articles, 349 good articles, 360 featured article reviews, 683 good article reviews and 480 In the news items, so Wikipedia has benefited greatly from the activities of WikiCup competitors. Well done everyone! All those who reached the final round will receive awards and the following special awards will be made, based on high performance in particular areas of content creation and review. So that the finalists do not have an undue advantage, these prizes are awarded to the competitor who scored the highest in any particular field in a single round, or the overall leader in this field.

  • England Lee Vilenski wins the featured article prize, for a total of 6 FAs during the course of the competition and 3 in the final round.
  • United Nations Kavyansh.Singh wins the featured list prize, for 3 FLs in round 2.
  • Adam Cuerden wins the featured picture prize, for 39 FPs during the competition.
  • Toronto Z1720 wins the featured article reviewer prize, for 35 FARs in round 4.
  • New York (state) Epicgenius wins the good article prize, for 32 GAs in round 1.
  • SounderBruce wins the featured topic prize, for 4 FT articles in round 1.
  • England Lee Vilenski wins the good topic prize, for 34 GT articles in round 5.
  • Sammi Brie wins the good article reviewer prize, for 71 GARs overall.
  • Sammi Brie wins the Did you know prize, for 30 DYKs in round 3 and 106 overall.
  • Kingdom of Scotland Bloom6132 wins the In the news prize, for 106 ITNs in round 5 and 289 overall.

File:IreneCara1983disco.png

Hi, please note the file https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:IreneCara1983disco.png (and https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Irene_Cara.png), uploaded by the participant Oscar Antonio (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irene_Cara). The image on the file does not look like the source he cited (https://www.discogs.com/es/release/8980783-Irene-Cara-What-A-Feelin-Qué-Sensación). On the file the singer is holding one hand forward, but on the source both hands are pointing down. And on all the covers and versions (=69) of this album both hands of the singer are down (https://www.discogs.com/es/master/42083-Irene-Cara-What-A-Feelin). So the source is wrong and where is the real source and what license is there is unknown. Is this a fake source and shouldn't this file be removed for violating the rules. Lasius (talk) 21:56, 2 December 2022 (UTC)

Please ask colleague @Bagumba (talk) to somehow respond to this problem with the unclear source of the image. Lasius (talk) 14:42, 3 December 2022 (UTC)

@Lasius: That file is hosted at https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Main_Page, not Wikipedia. Followup with any concerns over there. Regards. —Bagumba (talk) 14:53, 3 December 2022 (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!

Can the National Recording Registry be considered an accolade?

Hello. I wanted to ask you if an induction into the National Recording Registry can be considered an accolade for an awards list. This week, Daddy Yankee's "Gasolina" was inducted there, but I've read "awards and nominations" lists for other artists and there's no mention of the National Recording Registry, so I guess it doesn't count as a separate accolade. What do you think? Brankestein (talk) 16:05, 14 April 2023 (UTC)

@Brankestein Personally, I'd say go ahead and do it. I don't see the harm in including it. BTW, since you're here, I've been meaning to ask you if you'd be interested in working with me on the 2000s in Latin music article. It's not for GA or anything like that, I just thought it'd be fun. At the very least, maybe you could contribute to the reggaeton section? If you are interested, the sandbox is located at User:Magiciandude/Latindecades. Thanks Brankestein! Erick (talk) 13:59, 16 April 2023 (UTC)
Thanks for your reply. Sure, I would be glad to contribute to the reggaeton section of your article. I'm not that active on Wikipedia lately but I'm going to contribute when I have the time. Brankestein (talk) 17:34, 16 April 2023 (UTC)

WikiCup 2023 May newsletter

The second round of the 2023 WikiCup has now finished. Contestants needed to have scored 60 points to advance into round 3. Our top five scorers in round 2 all included a featured article among their submissions and each scored over 500 points. They were:

Other notable performances were put in by Sammi Brie, Thebiguglyalien, MyCatIsAChonk, Chicago PCN02WPS, and London AirshipJungleman29.

So far contestants have achieved thirteen featured articles between them, one being a joint effort, and forty-nine good articles. The judges are pleased with the thorough reviews that are being performed, and have hardly had to reject any. As we enter the third round, remember that any content promoted after the end of round 2 but before the start of round 3 can be claimed in round 3. Remember too that you must claim your points within 14 days of "earning" them.

If you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is at good article nominations, a featured process, or anywhere 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. Good luck!

Archiving sources for Wikipedia articles

Hey there, thank you so much for the tip on speeding up the archiving archiving process for Wikipedia articles. Out of curiosity, do you know how long it take for a bot to archive the sources? Is it instantaneous or does it usually take a bit of time? Also what about references that are cited twice in an article? I.e. references that have "a b c" etc., next to them? FrozenIcicle (talk) 15:40, 7 May 2023 (UTC)

Archiving large articles

Hey again! I have a quick question. So I've been using that tool you suggested I use for archiving articles and it's helped so so so much. Seriously can't thank you enough. However I noticed that it doesn't seem to work for large articles (those with more than 300 references) such as the article for Brazilian singer Anitta. I was wondering, do you know if there is another archiving system for large Wikipedia articles? Because I'm very worried about Anitta's Wikipedia page as there are many sources needing to be archived and it will take forever to archive each source individually. Feel free to respond on my talk page and thanks so much once again! (Edit: I realize that you can submit a bot job for large Wikipedia articles, but it doesn't seem to work very fast and when it does, it only archives like 3 or 4 sources. Not the whole article) FrozenIcicle (talk) 12:18, 12 May 2023 (UTC)

Gloria Estefan

Hello! My last edit posted before I could finish my comment. I wouldn't be surprised if Estefan had fewer sales than Shakira, but CBS is still a valid source, and it does say claimed sales. Regardless, another Billboard article lists 100 million sales as well. Breaktheicees (talk) 23:53, 13 August 2023 (UTC)

@Breaktheicees I understand. However, if Gloria sold over 75 million copies in 1998, where is the extra 25 million copies coming from? None of her albums released after gloria! achieved multi-million sellers. Also, I think this was unintentional on your part, but the article you listed is the one I posted on the edit summary. Is this the article you were trying to reference? I'm personally indifferent, I just find it weird on Billboard's part that they are inconsistent. Erick (talk) 00:00, 14 August 2023 (UTC) EDIT: I found some sources around that state Estefan has sold 90 million copies (Source 1), Source 2, Source 3. I think these sales are more reasonable and it's consistent with Shakira being with the best-selling female Latin artist of all-time. Is this a fine compromise?
It certainly is weird that Billboard is inconsistent. I can't entirely explain her sales discrepancies, but all of her pre-1991 releases were prior to Nielsen SoundScan sales tracking, so I'm sure she lost some sales there. I also wouldn't be surprised if some of her more recent compilations (Essential in particular) are eligible for certification but have not been yet. And then there's countries where she's probably sold records that haven't been reported/certified. Does all this add up to 25 million records? Perhaps not, but my issue with those sources are that they are all significantly older than those currently in the article, which are both sources from this year. It's a given that she would have had fewer sales at an earlier period in time. (Also, I realized I added the wrong link right after posting and changed it before you responded. Current link is the one I meant to add.) Breaktheicees (talk) 01:03, 14 August 2023 (UTC)
@Breaktheicees Right, I was thinking myself plus her singles being sold. What do you think of the 90 million sales figures then? I think it's a fair compromise and it's consistent with Shakira being recognized as the best-selling female Latin artist and the sources are somewhat more recent. Otherwise, we'd be in a paradox where Shakira is best-selling female Latin artist while also being outsold by Gloria Estefan and both statements cannot be true. Either Shakira has sold more than 95 million copies or Estefan's sales are somewhat inflated. Erick (talk) 01:08, 14 August 2023 (UTC)
I would compromise if those articles were newer, but they are not. I'm of the opinion that when sourcing things, we should always go with the most recent, valid source. Clearly one of the articles is incorrect, but the Estefan ones are the most recent, even more so than the Shakira one. Breaktheicees (talk) 01:35, 14 August 2023 (UTC)
@Breaktheicees I'll e-mail Billboard and see what they have to say. Wish me luck. Erick (talk) 01:40, 14 August 2023 (UTC)
That'd be great. I hope they get back to you and that they publish whatever the right answer is! Breaktheicees (talk) 01:47, 14 August 2023 (UTC)

@Breaktheicees: Surprise, surprise, they actually replied to me! 😲 I contacted the authors of both Billboard articles and they have updated their articles accordingly. Shakira's article no longer states that she is the best-selling female Latin artist and Gloria's article states that the sales are coming from her record label just like with Shakira's. If need be, I can forward the e-mails to you. Erick (talk) 18:36, 14 August 2023 (UTC)

Hey, that's awesome! I'm surprised that they got back to you so quickly! I just saw the articles so no need to send the emails, but thank you. Guess we can leave things as they are for now. Breaktheicees (talk) 21:55, 14 August 2023 (UTC)

Hello. It's been a long time since I reviewed the article No Sé Tú for GA nomination as part of the backlog event. I am still awaiting a response, and would be glad to give the article GA status since it's a considerably good one (especially by Latin music standards).

Sincerely, Dontuseurrealname (talk) 15:09, 8 October 2023 (UTC)

Congratulations to everyone who participated in this year's WikiCup, whether they made it to the final round or not, and particular congratulations to the newcomers to the competition, some of whom did very well. Wikipedia has benefitted greatly from the quality creations, expansions and improvements made, and the numerous reviews performed. All those who reached the final round will win awards. The following special awards will be made based on high performance in particular areas of content creation and review. Awards will be handed out in the next few days.

You are invited to sign up to participate in the contest; the WikiCup is open to all Wikipedians, both novices and experienced editors.

Finishing GA review

Hi, did you see my last comment at Talk:Abriendo Puertas (song)/GA1? I am fine with either wording. My concern with that sentence was that it uses quotation marks but seems to paraphrase the material, when one or the other would make sense. If you could (a) just paraphrase, (b) use a more direct translation as a quote, or (c) explain where I'm mistaken, I'll go ahead and pass the article. Everything else checks out. And thanks again for the patience, Rjjiii (talk) 02:38, 8 November 2023 (UTC)

Hi, I am Don Ienner's son helping my dad out with his Wikipedia article. Recently I posted a few suggestions to update the page. I saw that you have an interest in music and thought you might like to help with editing this page, since my understanding is that because of my conflict of interest I should not make any edits myself. Here is a link to my suggestions. Thanks so much. GarrettEye (talk) 12:40, 27 November 2023 (UTC)

WikiCup 2024 February newsletter

The 2024 WikiCup is off to a flying start, with 135 participants. This is the largest number of participants we have seen since 2017.

Our current leader is newcomer Generalissima (submissions), who has one FA on John Littlejohn (preacher) and 10 GAs and 12 DYKs mostly on New Zealand coinage and Inuit figures. Here are some more noteworthy scorers:

As a reminder, competitors may submit work for the first round until 23:59 (UTC) on 27 February, and the second round starts 1 March. Remember that only the top 64 scoring competitors will make it through to the second round; currently, competitors need at least 15 points to progress. 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 (Cwmhiraeth (talk · contribs), Epicgenius (talk · contribs), and Frostly (talk · contribs)) are reachable on their talk pages.

Hello there, it has been a while since I've been very busy working but I've recently nominated Kanye West's acclaimed 2010 album My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy for FA status after running through it again and as someone who did leave comments for my first ever FA Kids See Ghosts, I thought you may be interested in leaving some comments at the FAC.

WikiCup 2024 March newsletter

The first round of the 2024 WikiCup ended at 23:59 (UTC) on 27 February. Everyone with at least 30 points moved on to Round 2, the highest number of points required to advance to the second round since 2014. Due to a six-way tie for the 64th-place spot, 67 contestants have qualified for Round 2.

The following scorers in Round 1 all scored more than 300 points:

In this newsletter, the judges would like to pay a special tribute to Vami_IV (submissions), who unfortunately passed away this February. At the time of his death, he was the second-highest-scoring competitor. Outside the WikiCup, he had eight other featured articles, five A-class articles, eight other good articles, and two Four Awards. Vami also wrote an essay on completionism, a philosophy in which he deeply believed. If you can, please join us in honoring his memory by improving one of the articles on his to-do list.

Remember that any content promoted after 27 February but before the start of Round 2 can be claimed in Round 2. 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, feel free to review one of the nominations listed on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews Needed. Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages. Good luck!

Wanna try to get a DYK?

Hi Erick, way to go man. We managed to make Entre el Mar y una Estrella a good article. Would you like to try to get a DYK for it as well? I was thinking that we could use this information: "In a fan poll published by Billboard, "Entre el Mar y una Estrella" was selected as the best song to reach number one in 2000." We could quote it like "Entre el Mar y una Estrella by Thalía was crowned as the best number one latin hit of the last 20 years in a survey by Billboard?" What do you think? Should we nominate this quote fir a DYK or should we reword it? FanDePopLatino (talk) 04:26, 13 March 2024 (UTC)

@FanDePopLatino Yes that would be great! You can go ahead with the DYK. The next Thalía song I want to work is No me enseñaste but that's when I get to songs that hit #1 in 2002. Right now, I'm doing songs that reached #1 in 2001. Congrats on your first GA btw! =). Erick (talk) 15:55, 13 March 2024 (UTC)
@Erick I went ahead with the DYK. You can see it here. Hopefully we get it. Thanks! Looking forward to working on No Me Enseñaste with you when the time comes! FanDePopLatino (talk) 03:56, 14 March 2024 (UTC)

DYK for Entre el Mar y una Estrella

On 11 April 2024, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Entre el Mar y una Estrella, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that "Entre el Mar y una Estrella" by Thalía was crowned the best number-one Latin hit of the last 20 years in a survey conducted by Billboard? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Entre el Mar y una Estrella. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Entre el Mar y una Estrella), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

YAY! We got it! Thanks my friend. Look forward to working with you on "No Me Enseñaste"! FanDePopLatino (talk) 20:07, 11 April 2024 (UTC)
@FanDePopLatino Awesome! Sorry about the delayed response, been working. If you need any help with any other Thalía's older songs, let me know and I'll search up sources. I'm still in 2001 so it'll be a while before I get two "No Me Enseñanste" (which is my favorite Thalia song if I didn't already mentioned that lol). Erick (talk) 17:49, 14 April 2024 (UTC)
@Erick thanks man. You hadn't mentioned it lol. There is something I could use some help with though. Remember how before we could search for older articles in El Siglo De Torreón like this but now that their website updated, we can only search in the last 20 years. I've seen some users that are still finding articles published in the 80s and 90s but I don't know if there's a new link for that or if they're just using articles that were already linked on wikipedia. Do you know if there's a way to still search El Siglo De Torreón for articles from the 90s? FanDePopLatino (talk) 18:30, 14 April 2024 (UTC)
@FanDePopLatino Yes, try here. Let me know if that works. Erick (talk) 20:24, 14 April 2024 (UTC)
@Erick I've tried that link before but now it only allows me to go back to 2001. Do you know any other way? FanDePopLatino (talk) 20:40, 14 April 2024 (UTC)
@FanDePopLatino What about this? Erick (talk) 21:49, 14 April 2024 (UTC)
@Erick Same thing. It looks like it doesn't go back to the 90s at all. FanDePopLatino (talk) 23:32, 14 April 2024 (UTC)
@FanDePopLatino that is so weird. I can access articles for you to help Erick (talk) 03:52, 16 April 2024 (UTC)
@Erick I see one part that says "Archivo histórico 1922-2000 XML" but it's not a link to search up anything. Do you by any chance have an account with the newspaper? FanDePopLatino (talk) 01:39, 17 April 2024 (UTC)
@FanDePopLatino I do have an account with them. Erick (talk) 18:10, 20 April 2024 (UTC)
Erick Ah that's probably why. Maybe I'll get an account with them too. Does it cost money? FanDePopLatino (talk) 00:17, 21 April 2024 (UTC)
I took the cheapest amount which was like $15. Since then, they haven't asked me about any payments. Erick (talk) 01:01, 21 April 2024 (UTC)
Alright good to know. Thanks man! FanDePopLatino (talk) 04:48, 21 April 2024 (UTC)
@FanDePopLatino No problem! BTW, have you been using El Informador's Hemeroteca as well? Erick (talk) 18:20, 21 April 2024 (UTC)
@Erick sometimes but usually when I see links to it on other articles and I find something I can use for articles that interest me. FanDePopLatino (talk) 21:16, 21 April 2024 (UTC)

Searching for mentors

Hi, @Magiciandude.

These days I was waiting for a mentor for FA. Since you were the one who invited me to WikiProject Latin music (a group I never joined), I think it would be a good idea for you to guide me through the process, mainly with this article. Although I don't want to bother you if you don't want to, because, as I can see, you are very busy, more than me. Thank you for reading. Santi (talk) 19:21, 23 June 2024 (UTC)

@Pollosito Hi there! I would be more than to help you and I totally think you should join the Latin music project since you've contributed to several Latin music articles. You can use the FAs that I did on my accomplishments pages as references. Erick (talk) 16:12, 25 June 2024 (UTC)

Wikimedian in Residence intro!

Hola Magiciandude!

I hope this message finds you well! My name is Oscar, and for the next six months, I’ll be the Wikimedian in Residence for Latin Culture and Community at Equis. I came across your name on the list of participants for the Hispanic and Latino Americans task force and would love to connect with you!

I’m really excited to boost interest in these projects, and I believe that we can achieve more together than alone. If you have any questions or ideas for collaboration, please feel free to reach out. Looking forward to working with you!

Supporting my suggestion about Selena's birthplace

I would like to thank you for supporting my suggestion about Selena's birthplace. Can you make sure no one reverts my edits of Selena's birthplace being Freeport? If they do, I will tell you so would remind them. I'll get started on providing a source that says she's from Freeport, not Lake Jackson. Chidie345 (talk) 02:27, 12 August 2024 (UTC)

@Chidie345 I never said that I supported your suggestion about Selena's birthplace. I said you needed a reliable source to show that she was born there, because otherwise it's original research. Erick (talk) 02:30, 12 August 2024 (UTC)
The only reason I said you supported my suggestion it's because you told me to show proof by gaining a reliable source. Don't reiterate that you didn't say you supported my claim because:
  1. I don't need to hear it again.
  2. I never misread the message you sent me on the talk page of the Selena page.
  3. I didn't say I thought you said something about my claim. I just believed what I thought you did based on what you told me that I need to do (providing a source).
I'm just making a clarification that I never misunderstood what you told me. I correctly read your message. In fact, I did find several of them before or after I sent a message on the Selena talk page. I'm going to use one of them now. Chidie345 (talk) 03:06, 12 August 2024 (UTC)

Okay I just provided a reliable source for Selena's real birthplace on her biography and murder pages. I also put out Invisible comments of the same description on those pages to warn users, who see my edits, not to change the birthplace back to Lake Jackson.

A Request

I put some genres in the template for Lusophone countries music, but some of them don't have pages in English. Fortunately, several of them have references. Could you create English pages for the genres? 2600:6C5A:417F:528F:692B:4946:7A90:A055 (talk) 18:22, 29 September 2024 (UTC)

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on No Me Digas Que No (disambiguation) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G14 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a disambiguation page which either

  • disambiguates only one extant Wikipedia page and whose title ends in "(disambiguation)" (i.e., there is a primary topic);
  • disambiguates zero extant Wikipedia pages, regardless of its title; or
  • is an orphaned redirect with a title ending in "(disambiguation)" that does not target a disambiguation page or page that has a disambiguation-like function.

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such pages may be deleted at any time. Please see the disambiguation page guidelines for more information.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and removing the speedy deletion tag. jlwoodwa (talk) 23:42, 22 October 2024 (UTC)

Invitation to participate in a research

Hello,

The Wikimedia Foundation is conducting a survey of Wikipedians to better understand what draws administrators to contribute to Wikipedia, and what affects administrator retention. We will use this research to improve experiences for Wikipedians, and address common problems and needs. We have identified you as a good candidate for this research, and would greatly appreciate your participation in this anonymous survey.

You do not have to be an Administrator to participate.

The survey should take around 10-15 minutes to complete. You may read more about the study on its Meta page and view its privacy statement .

Please find our contact on the project Meta page if you have any questions or concerns.

Kind Regards,

WMF Research Team

WikiCup 2024 November newsletter

The 2024 WikiCup has come to an end, with the final round being a very tight race. Our new champion is AirshipJungleman29 (submissions), who scored 2,283 points mainly through 3 high-multiplier FAs and 3 GAs on military history topics. By a 1% margin, Airship beat out last year's champion, Delaware BeanieFan11 (submissions), who scored second with 2,264 points, mainly from an impressive 58 GAs about athletes. In third place, Generalissima (submissions) scored 1,528 points, primarily from two FAs on U.S. Librarians of Congress and 20 GAs about various historical topics. Our other finalists are: Sammi Brie (submissions) with 879 points, Canada Hey man im josh (submissions) with 533 points, BennyOnTheLoose (submissions) with 432 points, Arconning (submissions) with 244 points, and Christmas Island AryKun (submissions) with 15 points. Congratulations to our finalists and all who participated!

The final round was very productive, and contestants had 7 FAs, 9 FLs, 94 GAs, 73 FAC reviews, and 79 GAN reviews and peer reviews. Altogether, Wikipedia has benefited greatly from the activities of WikiCup competitors all through the contest. Well done everyone!

All those who reached the final will receive awards and the following special awards will be made, based on high performance in particular areas of content creation. So that the finalists do not have an undue advantage, these prizes are awarded to the competitor who scored the highest in any particular field in a single round, or in the event of a tie, to the overall leader in this field.

Next year's competition will begin on 1 January. You are invited to sign up to participate; the WikiCup is open to all Wikipedians, both novices and experienced editors, and we hope to see you all in the 2025 competition. Until then, it only remains to once again congratulate our worthy winners, and thank all participants for their involvement!
