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.

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 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 WikiCup/Newsletter/Send.

Faisal of Saudi Arabia
I am not sure if the article of King Faisal is ready for good article status. There are several citation needed tags throughout the page. Векочел (talk) 03:36, 12 June 2018 (UTC)
 * Oh. I've just finished my first pass and added those tags. From the page's history, looks like you nominated it for GA review. I agree it needs substantial work before achieving GA. Do you think you'll be able to do it now, or do you want to withdraw, and then work and renominate later? If you plan to do the former, I'll continue working on the review. HaEr48 (talk) 04:06, 12 June 2018 (UTC)
 * I will try to find sources for unsourced statements or otherwise remove them. Векочел (talk) 04:10, 12 June 2018 (UTC)
 * The nomination may need to be postponed. Векочел (talk) 14:30, 12 June 2018 (UTC)
 * I see. No pressure. I've put the article on hold. You're welcome to improve the article in the next ~7 days and then we'll reevaluate. If it's still a long way from GA, I can mark the review as "failed" so that you may renominate at a later time. HaEr48 (talk) 00:11, 13 June 2018 (UTC)
 * I've begun updating the article according to your suggestions. Векочел (talk) 01:25, 13 June 2018 (UTC)
 * Feel free to review my edits. Векочел (talk) 16:00, 15 June 2018 (UTC)
 * Hi, sorry I'm traveling with very limited internet, please give me about 2 weeks before I get back to the review, I hope that's okay. HaEr48 (talk) 04:20, 17 June 2018 (UTC)
 * No problem. Векочел (talk) 04:55, 17 June 2018 (UTC)
 * Please reply under each bullet point in my GA review to summarize what you've done for that particular point. HaEr48 (talk) 04:48, 25 June 2018 (UTC)
 * Don't forget about the review. Векочел (talk) 15:03, 3 July 2018 (UTC)

Your GA nomination of Averroes
The article Averroes you nominated as a good article has passed ; see Talk:Averroes for comments about the article. Well done! If the article has not already been on the main page as an "In the news" or "Did you know" item, you can nominate it to appear in Did you know.
