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:


 * 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.
 * 🇨🇽 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.
 * Bloom6132, a WikiCup veteran, was in third place with 682 points, garnered from 51 In the news items and several DYKs.
 * GhostRiver was close behind with 679 points, gained from achieving 12 GAs, mostly on ice hockey players, and 35 GARs.
 * 🇺🇳 Kavyansh.Singh was in fifth place with 551 points, with an FA, a FL, and many reviews.
 * Flag of Provo, Utah (1989–2015).svg SounderBruce was next with 454 points, gained from an FA and various other submissions, mostly on United States highways.
 * 🇺🇳 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 WikiCup/Reviews Needed.

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

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) 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) 🇨🇽 AryKun, with 1172 points from two featured articles, one good article and a substantial number of featured article and good article reviews.
 * 3) Bloom6132, with 605 points from 44 in the news items and 4 DYKs.
 * 4) Transgender Pride flag.svg Sammi Brie, with 573 points from 8 GAs and 21 DYKs.
 * 5) Vexilloid of the Roman Empire.svg Ealdgyth, with 567 points from 11 GAs and 34 good and featured article reviews.
 * 6) Panini!, with 549 points from 1 FA, 4 GAs and several other sources.
 * 7) 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 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 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!

Proposed deletion of Alaskan Women Looking for Love


The article Alaskan Women Looking for Love has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern: "All hits on ProQuest are just passing name-drops or boilerplate directory listings. Newspapers.com gave only TV Guide and nothing else."

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

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

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing 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.

Top Holiday Albums number ones of the 2010s
I apologize if I made inappropriate unauthorized changes to your article. I have only recently gotten more involved in updating and creating pages. Does your immediate deletion of the information indicate opposition to the merge, or would it be worth bring up a discussion to the talk page about adding Digital Song Sales data to your page. Djaymiller (talk) 19:33, 16 January 2023 (UTC)
 * No apologies necessary. It's not my article, but since this particular list underwent significant critiques and commenting (please see this prior discussion) to meet the guidelines set for a Featured List, I found the action of tripling the list's content to be inappropriate. The content in this list should focus on albums per its title, and not songs. If a list of the top Holiday Digital Songs in the US is notable enough for inclusion on Wikipedia, it should be titled something like List of Billboard Holiday Digital Songs Sales number ones of the 2010s or of the sort.


 * Your addition of new columns broke some of the sortable parameters that were set in place, which allows the reader to sort a table by title or surname. When making these edits, please take special care to ensure that the information you enter is able to be sorted properly. Familiarizing yourself with MOS:TABLES may prove helpful. Also, of the citations you added in your edits, I would consider many of them to be lacking and missing information that is necessary for a FL-quality list. For example, there is no way to distinguish the numerous 'Holiday Digital Songs Sales' citations you added, so adding publishing dates and access dates to them would be highly beneficial to the reader. The information you added is preserved in the page's edit history (see ).


 * Am I opposed to merging this particular albums list with information regarding song statistics? Yes. I do not find it particularly relevant to the subject's content. Is the Holiday Digital Songs Sales chart notable enough for its own article? I'm not sure. In my research, I find the Holiday 100 to be more of the typical "standard" for labeling number one holiday hits in the United States. I, personally, have not found widespread coverage of HDSS in independent sourcing, which indicates to me that the topic might not be notable enough. I do, however, find it worthwhile to bring this up at WP Talk:RECORDCHARTS if you disagree. Carbrera (talk) 17:51, 17 January 2023 (UTC).

Elizabeth Gillies
Hi, I just wanted to know what was your reasoning for keeping Elizabeth Gillies discography page. Discography pages are for charting histories and her songs are all unsuccessful soundtrack songs. Why would she need a discography page? Friendlyhelper9949 (talk) 01:03, 20 August 2023 (UTC)
 * the list is decently sourced and comprehensive, and discography pages are not for charting histories but rather for cataloging an artist's works. Just because she only has 4 or 5 or however many charted releases does not make her discography invalid. Carbrera (talk) 01:16, 20 August 2023 (UTC).
 * That’s fair. I was moreso focused on how the promotional singles and charted songs are with everything is her being featured or on a soundtrack besides a few duets. Her credits on her specific soundtrack release pages seem like enough overall listing to me. But that’s just my main take-away. Friendlyhelper9949 (talk) 01:21, 20 August 2023 (UTC)
