WikiCup 2013 January newsletter

Signups are now closed; we have our final 127 contestants for this year's competition. 64 contestants will make it to the next round at the end of February, but we're already seeing strong scoring compared to previous years. Colorado Sturmvogel_66 (submissions) currently leads, with 358 points. At this stage in 2012, the leader (Irish Citizen Army Grapple X (submissions)) had 342 points, while in 2011, the leader had 228 points. We also have a large number of scorers when compared with this stage in previous years. Florida 12george1 (submissions) was the first competitor to score this year, as he was last year, with a detailed good article review. Some other firsts:

Featured articles, portals and topics, as well as good topics, are yet to feature in the competition.

This year, the bonus points system has been reworked, with bonus points on offer for old articles prepared for did you know, and "multiplier" points reworked to become more linear. For details, please see Wikipedia:WikiCup/Scoring. There have been some teething problems as the bot has worked its way around the new system, but issues should mostly be ironed out- please report any problems to the WikiCup talk page. Here are some participants worthy of note with regards to the bonus points:

  • United States Ed! (submissions) was the first to score bonus points, with Portland-class cruiser, a good article.
  • Australia Hawkeye7 (submissions) has the highest overall bonus points, as well as the highest scoring article, thanks to his work on Enrico Fermi, now a good article. The biography of such a significant figure to the history of science warrants nearly five times the normal score.
  • Chicago HueSatLum (submissions) claimed bonus points for René Vautier and Nicolas de Fer, articles that did not exist on the English Wikipedia at the start of the year; a first for the WikiCup. The articles were eligible for bonus points because of fact they were both covered on a number of other Wikipedias.

Also, a quick mention of British Empire The C of E (submissions), who may well have already written the oddest article of the WikiCup this year: did you know that the Fucking mayor objected to Fucking Hell on the grounds that there was no Fucking brewery? The gauntlet has been thrown down; can anyone beat it?

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. 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.

Fine=. first I wanna tell you, please sign after leaving a message. Your article is not fully ready to be re-submitted. But you can try. First you watch how to put a title on a reference. For help you can see some WP article. pages. But don't get sad. Honestly at first I also couldn't put them. But I don't understand about your last question. I can't understand what're you asking. Please now watch the article and tell me what're you really asking for.--Pratyya (Hello!) 16:11, 5 February 2013 (UTC)

Laurie Beebe Lewis

Hi Pratyya Ghosh, This was my first Wikipedia article. So, I'm here to learn and hopefully get it published. Can you tell me what I can do to get it published? I see here that it says she's not noteworthy enough. However, Laurie Beebe Lewis a big part of the group and there are minor singers after her who have Wikipedia articles published.

Lisa Brescia, for example, does not have the professional accomplishments and recordings as Laurie Beebe Lewis. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lisa_Brescia

Deb Lyons also does not have the professional accomplishments of Laurie Beebe Lewis. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deb_Lyons

Was it declined because of the lack of references? I can add easily add those.

Kindly let me know. I thank you for your time.

Downloading CanIT

I want to download CanIT. What'll I do?--Pratyya (Hello!) 15:39, 7 February 2013 (UTC)

It is not up for download - its a closed source app that was never designed to run onto any other system (It utterly lacks any form of exception handling for example, and i went with an "If i can code a section in five minutes that is preferable over spending another 10 thinking everything trough" approach. If your just looking for a code example, huggle is open source and has a more solid programming basis. Excirial (Contact me,Contribs) 19:10, 8 February 2013 (UTC)

Re:Hi

You're welcome to email me. If you do, leave a note on my talk page so I know to look for it. J Milburn (talk) 16:51, 9 February 2013 (UTC)

Hi. I got your email. If the rules are going to be changed, it has to be discussed on-Wikipedia, but we certainly won't be changing the rules in any significant way now that the competition has started. We have discussions towards the end of the year about rules changes, and things are normally tweaked a little bit every competition. Your idea is a sensible one, and it's certainly something that can be discussed later in the year. Keep your eye on the newsletter; I'll send out a message when new ideas are being discussed. In the mean time, reviewing and cleaning up articles at AfC may be a good way to earn DYK points. J Milburn (talk) 14:13, 10 February 2013 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Johnston, Northern Territory, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Darwin (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

I am somewhat concerned that a ghost town that existed for probably 5 years at the most requires a map of australia locator and template as large as that.... Darwin, Tasmania... is there any reason why a place of that context requires a template that cannot ever be adequately utilised? sats 23:29, 10 February 2013 (UTC)

Re: WP:WWF

Hi! If you wish to have the awards system changed i think it's best to bring it up on the project talkpage, so as to get input from more members of the project. My personal opinion is that the awards for "ranking" should be left as is. Instead I had a though, maybe additional awards could be created, say "platinum" and "diamond" for 150 and 200 articles wikified?

All the best, and thanks for your contributions to WikiProject Wikify and Wikipedia :) benzband (talk) 19:46, 11 February 2013 (UTC)

I'm afraid I have removed your good article reviews. Very short reviews and quickfails are normally not eligible for WikiCup points (see Wikipedia:WikiCup/Scoring), and all of your reviews were too short. I'm not saying that they were bad reviews- I have no opinion on that. If you have any questions, please contact me on my talk page. J Milburn (talk) 18:56, 13 February 2013 (UTC)

TAFI

Hello,
In the past few days, Today's Articles for Improvement has gone through many changes.

  • We have modified the process for adding Nominations, which now uses a template/table format and requires only 3 supports for an article to be selected.
  • There is now a Holding Area, where articles are kept for discussion before being selected for a particular date.
  • The TAFI schedule now involves adding 10 articles weekly, chosen from a variety of topics.
  • We now have an Accomplishments page where we will be highlighting our older TAFI articles which have now become quality articles on the Wikipedia.

The Project is almost ready to hit the Main Page, where it will be occupying a section just below "Did you Know" section. Three article from the weekly batch of 7 will be displayed randomly at the main page, the format of which can be seen at the Main Page sandbox. There is also an ongoing discussion at the Main page talk over the final details before we can go forward with the Main Page.

If you have any ideas to discuss with everyone else, please visit the TAFI Talk Page and join in on the ongoing discussions there. You are also invited to add new nominations, and comment and suport on the current ones at the Nominations page. You can also help by helping in the discussions at the Holding Area.

Above all, please do not forget to improve our current Today's Articles for Improvement

Thank you and hoping to have some productive work from you at the Project,
TheOriginalSoni (talk) 11:52, 18 February 2013 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Bangladesh and Zimbabwe in Twenty20 Internationals

The article Bangladesh and Zimbabwe in Twenty20 Internationals has been proposed for deletion. The proposed deletion notice added to the article should explain why.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
