RE: Wiki Cup
Erm, I don't quite understand what you're saying but I'll try to answer anyway. You can sign up for next year at the end of this year (possibly October time). There are four rounds; layout for the rounds is listed at the top of the WikiCup page. GARDEN 12:19, 6 April 2009 (UTC)

RE: 10 Wiki Cup Newsletters!
Hi,

You're welcome! I think the problem was caused with a mixture of Wikipedia Servers being slow, and my internet speed also being slow, as I was doing other things at the same time as running the bot task. Hopefully it won't happen again! :)

Thanks,

This is just a quick reminder that the round ends this Friday, May 29, 2009. I wanted to let you guys know the current standings. If you are very close, but not close enough, work as hard as possible these next two days. Pool leaders are listed as usual, and under the 10 wildcards, are competitors that are still fighting for a spot. Also, if you currently have any un-reviewed GAN's up and you'd like them to be reviewed and counted for this round, you must place them on the appropriate thread of the WikiCup talk page.

RE: Wiki Cup Country
I don't know yet. I'll get in touch with the other judges and be back to you later - maybe post the question at WT:CUP for a wider opinion more quickly. Thanks,  weburiedoursecretsinthe garden  09:33, 6 July 2009 (UTC)

WikiCup participates in the The Great Wikipedia Dramaout
Hello all, iMatthew here. I just wanted to let you know about "The Great Wikipedia Dramaout" which starts this Saturday. The goal of the Dramaout is to spend five days working on improving articles and abstaining from any of Wikipedia's drama. I don't think that any of you will have a problem focusing on articles for five days, because of course, any work you get done during the Dramaout will count towards your score in the WikiCup. Details are on the page; hope to see you all signing up! :)  iMatthew  talk   at 00:27, 17 July 2009 (UTC)

Please update your status with WP:VG
Dear WikiProject Video games member,

You are receiving this message because you have either Category:WikiProject Video games members or User WPVG somewhere in your userspace and you have edited Wikipedia in the recent months.

The Video games project has created a member list to provide a clearer picture of its active membership.

All members have currently been placed in the "Inactive" section by default. Please remove your username from the "Inactive" listing and place it under the "Active" listing if you plan on regularly:
 * Editing video game-related pages in the Article namespace
 * Participating in video game-related discussions in the Project namespace (WT:VG, WP:AfD, WP:GAN, etc.)

Ideally, members are encouraged to do both, but either one meets our criteria of inclusion. Members still listed inactive at the beginning of November 2009 may be removed. You may re-add yourself to the active list at any time. Thank you for your help, and we look forward to working with you.

On 24 September 2009 you appeared to move me from active to inactive list immediately after I did the opposite. I assume this was due to an edit conflict. I have only just discovered the error, and I may not have discovered it at all. Please be careful and when getting an edit conflict and try not to overwrite others edits. Thanks. Camaron · Christopher · talk 20:06, 8 October 2009 (UTC)

In fact you moved my name back and added yours to the active list in two separate edits leaving me even more confused. If this was intentional I would appreciate a note and reason for it on my talk page next time, plus an edit summary so I can find who did what in the edit history more easily.

2010 WikiCup Signups Reconfirmation!
To ensure that everyone who signed up is still committed to participating in the 2010 WikiCup, it is required that you remove your name from this list! By removing your name, you are not removing yourself from the WikiCup. This is simply a way for the judges to take note of who has not yet reconfirmed their participation. If you have not removed your name from that list by December 30th, 2009 (by 23:59 (UTC)) then your name will be removed from the WikiCup.

It's worth noting the rules have changed, likely after you signed up. The changes made thus far are:
 * Mainspace and/or portal edits will not be awarded points at all.
 * Did you know? articles (which were worth 5 points last year) will now be worth 10 points.
 * Good articles (which were worth 30 points last year) will now be worth 40 points.
 * Valued pictures will be now awarded points, however the amount (5 or 10 points) is still being discussed.
 * Featured lists (which were worth 30 points last year) will now be worth 40 points.
 * Featured portals (which were worth 25 points last year) will now be worth 35 points.
 * Featured articles (which were worth 50 points last year) will now be worth 100 points.
 * Featured topics (which were worth 10 points per article last year) will now be worth 15 points per any article in the topic that you were a major contributor to.
 * Good topics (which were worth 5 points per article last year) will now be worth 10 points per any article in the topic that you were a major contributor to.
 * In the news will still be awarded points, however the amount (5 or 10 points) is still being discussed.

If you have any final concerns about the WikiCup's rules and regulations, please ask them now, before the Cup begins to avoid last minute problems. You may come to the WikiCup's talk page, or any of the judge's user talk pages. We're looking forwards to a great 2010 WikiCup!

WikiCup flag
Hi ! The flag you chose for the 2010 WikiCup was removed either because it was already taken by another editor, or it didn't meet the criteria. Please select a new flag before this Friday, that is "under a free license that is of a (current or historical) continent, country, state, county or city and has NOT already been chosen by another contestant." Thank you,  iMatthew  talk   at 13:09, 29 December 2009 (UTC)
 * OK, you may re-add it. If you didn't remove your name from that list yet, do it now. If you did, you're fine. PLEASE ARCHIVE THIS PAGE! It's a terrible mess! It took 5 minutes for my usually very-fast computer to load.  iMatthew  talk   at 16:46, 29 December 2009 (UTC)

The 2010 WikiCup begins tomorrow!
Welcome to the biggest WikiCup Wikipedia has yet seen! Round one will take place over two months, and finish on February 26. There is only one pool, and the top 64 will progress. The competition will be tough, as more than half of the current competitors will not make it to round 2. Details about scoring have been finalized and are explained at WikiCup/Scoring. Please make sure you're familiar with the scoring rules, because any submissions made that violate these rules will be removed. Like always, the judges can be reached through the WikiCup talk pages, on their talk page, or over IRC with any issues concerning anything tied to the Cup. We will keep in contact with you via weekly newsletters; if you do not want to receive them, please remove yourself from the list here. Conversely, if a non-WikiCup participant wishes to receive the newsletters, they may add themselves to that list. Well, enough talk- get writing! Your submission's page is located here. Details on how to submit your content is located here, so be sure to check that out! Once content has been recognized, it can be added to your submissions page, from which our bot will update the main score table. Remember that only articles worked on and nominated during the competition are eligible for points. Have fun, and good luck! Garden, iMatthew, J Milburn, and The ed17 19:17, 31 December 2009 (UTC)
