Script

Hi Coemgenus, I added the readable prose size script to my js file, and saved it, but can't seem to find how it's used. I am using Firefox version 56.0.2 -- I tried using it without installing, with no luck. Assuming you go to the page in question, what should be done next after it's added to the JS file? Any help would be greatly appreciated. -- Gwillhickers (talk) 21:56, 31 January 2018 (UTC)

@Gwillhickers: there should be a link entitled "Page size" on the bottom of your tools menu on the left sidebar. --Coemgenus (talk) 22:27, 31 January 2018 (UTC)

Yes, right under my nose. Thanks. Works great! It seems everything that is counted as readable prose is highlighted in yellow. However, I noticed that the citation numbers in brackets are also highlighted. Are these being counted as RP? -- Gwillhickers (talk) 22:34, 31 January 2018 (UTC)

I don't think so, but I couldn't say for sure. Maybe test it on a smaller article and compare the word count to an actual count? --Coemgenus (talk) 22:46, 31 January 2018 (UTC)

Request Mentor Assistance or should I say Fire, Help!MikeWilkins (talk) 12:09, 27 February 2018 (UTC)

Dear Sir, Coemgenus, or should I call you Kevin, as my Latin is somewhat underdeveloped.

The purpose of this contact is to request assistance, in the form of mentorship by yourself towards my attempt to edit, update and correlate my study notes of the past thirty years, into the accepted formate which Wikipedia requires. Over the years I have noticed inconsistencies, which with your help we may be able to rectify. My research and study primarily involve's American history in the burnt-over location of Pennsylvania U.S.A. With your help, we may be able to upgrade Wikipedia information pages into bronze star feature articles. I have started to correlate factual information with all the original reference details: I should have a few words written in a few weeks.

I hope that you will give my request due consideration, and I look forward to your response. If for any reason you are unable or unwilling to guide me as a mentor, due to prior arrangements or work commitments, may I say that I understand your position. Very best regards Mike Wilkins. -MikeWilkins (talk) 12:09, 27 February 2018 (UTC)

WikiCup 2018 March newsletter

And so ends the first round of the competition, with 4 points required to qualify for round 2. With 53 contestants qualifying, the groups for round 2 are slightly smaller than usual, with the two leaders from each group due to qualify for round 3 as well as the top sixteen remaining users.

Our top scorers in round 1 were:

• Aoba47 led the field with a featured article, 8 good articles and 42 GARs, giving a total of 666 points.
• FrB.TG , a WikiCup newcomer, came next with 600 points, gained from a featured article and masses of bonus points.
• Ssven2, another WikiCup newcomer, was in third place with 403 points, garnered from a featured article, a featured list, a good article and twelve GARs.
• Ceranthor, Numerounovedant, Carbrera, Farang Rak Tham and Cartoon network freak all had over 200 points, but like all the other contestants, now have to start again from scratch. A good achievement was the 193 GARs performed by WikiCup contestants, comparing very favourably with the 54 GAs they achieved.

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 at good article candidates, a featured process, or anywhere 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 help 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!

Ford Piquette Avenue Plant FAC

I nominated the Ford Piquette Avenue Plant article for FA status here: Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/Ford Piquette Avenue Plant/archive1. I saw on the Wikipedia:Mentoring for FAC page that you have an interest in history, so I believe the subject of this article may interest you. This building played a huge yet mostly unknown role in the early years of the automotive industry in the United States. Any input that you would be willing to provide on its review page would be helpful, but what will help the most is confirming whether it meets the FA criteria. Thanks in advance.

WikiCup 2018 May newsletter

The second round of the 2018 WikiCup has now finished. Most contestants who advanced to the next round scored upwards of 100 points, but two with just 10 points managed to scrape through into round 3. Our top scorers in the last round were:

• Cas Liber, our winner in 2016, with three featured articles
• Iazyges, with nine good articles and lots of bonus points
• Yashthepunisher, a first time contestant, with two featured lists
• SounderBruce, a finalist last year, with seventeen good topic articles
• Usernameunique, a first time contestant, with fourteen DYKs
• Muboshgu, a seasoned competitor, with three ITNs and
• Courcelles, another first time contestant, with twenty-seven GARs

So far contestants have achieved twelve featured articles between them and a splendid 124 good articles. Commendably, 326 GARs have been completed during the course of the 2018 WikiCup, so the backlog of articles awaiting GA review has been reduced as a result of contestants' activities. 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. When doing GARs, please make sure that you check that all the GA criteria are fully met; most of the GARs are fine, but a few have been a bit skimpy.

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!

FA Question

Hi Coemgenus - I got your name off the list at Wikipedia:Mentoring for FAC. If you have a moment, I was hoping you might answer a question for me. I had hoped to see Herman Ames promoted to FA, however, it has not first gone through GA review. I nominated it to GAR, however, even considering the GAR backlog I suspect it may never see a review given it is in the least popular GAR section (Law). How inappropriate would it be to nominate it to FA without it first undergoing a GA review? Many thanks, in advance. Chetsford (talk) 18:43, 22 May 2018 (UTC)

Chetsford, it would not be inappropriate. It actually happens all the time. The FA and GA processes are unrelated. GA is not a bad way to make sure your article is ready for FA, but it's by no means required. --Coemgenus (talk) 17:53, 23 May 2018 (UTC)

Fantastic, thanks for the advice! Chetsford (talk) 20:34, 24 May 2018 (UTC)

WikiCup 2018 July newsletter

The third round of the 2018 WikiCup has now come to an end. The 16 users who made it to the fourth round had at least 227 points. Our top scorers in round 3 were:

• Courcelles, a first time contestant, with 1756 points, a tally built largely on 27 GAs related to the Olympics
• Cas Liber, our winner in 2016, with two featured articles and three GAs on natural history and astronomy topics
• SounderBruce, a finalist last year, with a variety of submissions related to transport in the state of Washington

Contestants managed 7 featured articles, 4 featured lists, 120 good articles, 1 good topic, 124 DYK entries, 15 ITN entries, and 132 good article reviews. Over the course of the competition, contestants have completed 458 GA reviews, in comparison to 244 good articles submitted for review and promoted. 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; several submissions, particularly in abstruse or technical areas, have needed additional work to make them completely verifiable.

Thank you for " Thomas F. Bayard: 19th-century American legislator and diplomat. A Democratic senator from Delaware, he spent most of his legislative career opposing things: civil rights, Reconstruction, tariffs, silver coinage, and pretty much anything the Republicans were for. As a diplomat, he pursued closer relations with Britain, along with trade and peace with the rest of the world. He was thoroughly reactionary, even by the standards of his time."! --Gerda Arendt (talk) 05:43, 16 September 2018 (UTC)

Thanks! --Coemgenus (talk) 15:48, 16 September 2018 (UTC)

Today, thank you for Philadelphia municipal election, 1951, "which was a landmark in the city's history. After 67 years of Republican dominance, the Democrats joined with independent advocates of good government to forge a winning coalition for mayor, city council, and other city offices."! --Gerda Arendt (talk) 06:46, 6 November 2018 (UTC)

Thank you! --Coemgenus (talk) 13:39, 6 November 2018 (UTC)

Today, thank you for Henry W. Sawyer, primarily "known for his work as a civil rights attorney, Sawyer successfully argued two landmark religious establishment cases before the U.S. Supreme Court. He was also involved in the Civil Rights movement in the 1960s and served four years on Philadelphia's City Council."! --Gerda Arendt (talk) 05:16, 31 July 2019 (UTC)

You're welcome! --Coemgenus (talk) 12:19, 31 July 2019 (UTC)

Today, thank you for William Hayden English, "an Indiana politician of the middle nineteenth century who made two brief appearances in the national scene: in the 1850s, during the Kansas-Nebraska debates, and in 1880, as the Democrats' nominee for Vice President"! - I have a peer review open, DYK? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 06:02, 27 August 2019 (UTC)

Seven years now! --Gerda Arendt (talk) 06:56, 15 September 2019 (UTC)

Today, thank you for Henry Conwell, "the second Catholic bishop of Philadelphia. He began his episcopate at an advanced age and spent much of his tenure fighting with lay trustees of one of his parishes. He was recalled to Rome, stripped of most of his powers, and lived out his days as bishop in name only."! --Gerda Arendt (talk) 06:03, 22 April 2020 (UTC)

You're welcome! --Coemgenus (talk) 12:54, 22 April 2020 (UTC)

And today, for Samuel J. Randall, about a "Speaker of the United States House of Representatives, half-hearted presidential candidate, and a long-serving politician from my hometown, Philadelphia. The last biography in my long-running 1880 series, it contains a lot of tariff and monetary disputes that no longer fascinate the nation as they once did, but should (I hope) be an enjoyable read."! - Yes ;) - Would you look at a featured list nom for me? I need a source review for a FAC, but that's probably asking too much. All in memory of Brian. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 07:54, 10 June 2020 (UTC)

WikiCup 2018 September newsletter

The fourth round of the 2018 WikiCup has now come to an end. The eight users who made it to the final round had to score a minimum of 422 points to qualify, with the top score in the round being 4869 points. The leaders in round 4 were:

• Courcelles scored a magnificent 4869 points, with 92 good articles on Olympics-related themes. Courcelles' bonus points alone exceeded the total score of any of the other contestants!
• Kees08 was second with 1155 points, including a high-scoring featured article for Neil Armstrong, two good topics and some Olympics-related good articles.
• Cas Liber, with 1066 points, was in third place this round, with two featured articles and a good article, all on natural history topics.
• Other contestants who qualified for the final round were Nova Crystallis, Iazyges, SounderBruce, Kosack and Ceranthor.

During round four, 6 featured articles and 164 good articles were promoted by WikiCup contestants, 13 articles were included in good topics and 143 good article reviews were performed. There were also 10 "in the news" contributions on the main page and 53 "did you knows". Congratulations to all who participated! It was a generally high-scoring and productive round and I think we can expect a highly competitive finish to the competition.

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 10 days of "earning" them.

Hi, I'm RonBot, a script that checks new non-free file uploads. I have found that the subject image that you recently uploaded was more than 5% in excess of the Non-free content guideline size of 100,000 pixels. I have tagged the image for a standard reduction, which (for jpg/gif/png/svg files) normally happens within a day. Please check the reduced image, and make sure that the image is not excessively corrupted. Other files will be added to Category:Wikipedia non-free file size reduction requests for manual processing. There is a full seven-day period before the original oversized image will be hidden; during that time you might want to consider editing the original image yourself (perhaps an initial crop to allow a smaller reduction or none at all). A formula for calculation the desired size can be found at WP:Image resolution, along with instructions on how to tag the image in the rare cases that it requires an oversized image (typically about 0.2% of non-free uploads are tagged as necessarily oversized). Please contact the bot owner if you have any questions, or you can ask them at Wikipedia talk:Non-free content. See User:RonBot for info on how to not get these messages.
