WikiCup 2010 January newsletter
We are half way through round one of the WikiCup. We've had some shakeups regarding late entries, flag changes and early dropouts, but the competition is now established- there will be no more flag changes or new competitors. Congratulations to, our current leader, who, at the time of writing, has more listed points than and   (second and third place respectively) combined. A special well done also goes to - his artcle Jewel Box (St. Louis, Missouri) was the first content to score points in the competition.

Around half of competitors are yet to score. Please remember to submit content soon after it is promoted, so that the judges are able to review entries. 64 of the 149 current competitors will advance to round 2- if you currently have no points, do not worry, as over half of the current top 64 have under 50 points. Everyone needs to get their entries in now to guarantee their places in round 2! If you are concerned that your nomination will not receive the necessary reviews, and you hope to get it promoted before the end of the round, please list it on WikiCup/Reviews. However, please remember to continue to offer reviews at GAC, FAC and all the other pages that require them to prevent any backlogs which could otherwise be caused by the Cup. As ever, questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup and the judges are reachable on their talk pages, by email or on IRC. Good luck!

still blocked
I don't pretend to know what you hope to accomplish by adding all these images to your talk page while you are blocked, but I'm afraid you are not permitted to remove block notices or declined unblock requests while the block still stands, so I am restoring them here. Beeblebrox (talk) 06:54, 3 March 2010 (UTC)

Blocked
You have been blocked from editing for violating Wikipedia policy. If you believe this block is unjustified you may contest this block by replying here on your |talk page by adding the text. You may also email the blocking administrator or any administrator from this list instead, or mail unblock-en-l@mail.wikimedia.org. As made clear by both and General sanctions/Obama article probation your actions are not currently in line with policy. Your email to me basically requested that I join you in a tag team, when you first came to me talk page this is what you were complaining about other editors about. I think you have the wrong idea of how we work, you seem to think that you should be challenging the other editors, and be "strong" against them. You should instead work with them. General sanctions makes it clear that you should assume good faith and remain civil, but you are constantly rude to the about the other editors at Barack Obama and claim they act in bad faith. Your continued posting in Chinese after being told to stop is also disruptive, apologising about posting in Chinese in Chinese isn't funny, and shows you aren't taking concerns seriously.

I hope that you understand the reasons behind this block, and when you return you change your behaviour, and the way you interact with others. - Kingpin13 (talk) 19:15, 2 March 2010 (UTC)

I am sorry.

I am also sorry that you completely misunderstood my email. I never asked Kingpin13 to tag team. Here is what I wrote:

Hi,

Those two who are complaining about me to the Obama sanctions board are too much. However, I am nice. How about a secret deal where you close the complaints against me as saying these things don't help in your moderating with JB50000? In return, I will limit editing to Obama pages to a maximum of (deleted) days per month for the next 2 months (March 3 to May 3). With such informal and secret restriction, I'll make each post very thoughtful. However, if there are formal restrictions, I'll fight because that this not fair, particularly against bullies. See, I am a weakling and not a fighter.

I do not think the multilingual sorry is disruptive but I will not do it again. I will also assume good faith in everyone - I will take this to the extreme from now on. I did not ask to tag team so I am completely innocent in this regard but I also promise never to start. Sorry.

A final request: Please be kind and not nasty when acting on the unblock request. A kind response will set the tone for a happy and productive reintroduction to WP for me, something that I pledge to continue what you start. JB50000 (talk) 03:49, 3 March 2010 (UTC)
 * A final note to you: We don't do "secret deals" and you shouldn't be viewing other users as your "enemies." Wikipedia is supposed to be about transparency and working together, not backroom dealing and a battleground mentality. Beeblebrox (talk) 04:16, 3 March 2010 (UTC)

Pictures
While you are correct you're allowed to have pictures (and other decorations) on your page, that's actually for your user page, not your talk page. Your talk page is for communication between you and other editors, your user page is for you to decorate with pictures, barnstars, etc. Just thought you might want to know. Dayewalker (talk) 04:53, 4 March 2010 (UTC)

Please do not touch my user page. If you wish to appeal to an administrator, I will accept unblock and not edit any article or article talk page for the duration of 7 days. This is my promise. Otherwise, please allow me solitude. JB50000 (talk) 05:00, 4 March 2010 (UTC)
 * No one requires you to check this page. If you want solitude, the answer is simple: just don't log in. r ʨ anaɢ talk/contribs 05:02, 4 March 2010 (UTC)
 * No one requires that others check this page. Others, please leave.  You may return in 7 days.  Thank you.  I will clean up this page to the usual Wikipedia look at that time. JB50000 (talk) 05:05, 4 March 2010 (UTC)

SPI case
I am informing you that I have filed a WP:SPI case involving you here. DD2K (talk) 22:11, 7 March 2010 (UTC)

On a related note, a special thank you goes to for his help behind the scenes once again. There is currently a problem with the poster, perhaps caused by the new skin- take a look at this discussion and see if you can help.

WikiCup 2010 June newsletter
We're half way through 2010, and the end of the WikiCup is in sight! Round 3 is over, and we're down to our final 16. Our pool winners were (A),  (B, and the round's overall leader),  (C)  and  (D, joint), but, with the scores reset, everything is to play for in our last pooled round. The pools will be up before midnight tonight, and have been selected randomly by J Milburn. This will be the toughest round yet, and so, as ever, anything you worry may not receive the necessary attention before the end of the round (such as outstanding GA or FA nominations) is welcome at WikiCup/Reviews, and please remember to continue offering reviews yourself where possible. As always, the judges are available to contact via email, IRC or their talk pages, and general discussion about the Cup is welcome on the WikiCup talk page.

Though unaffiliated with the WikiCup, July sees the third Great Wikipedia Dramaout- a project with not dissimilar goals to the WikiCup. Everyone is welcome to take part and do their bit to contribute to the encyclopedia itself.

If you're interested in the scores for the last round of the Cup, please take a look at WikiCup/History/2010/Round 3 and WikiCup/History/2010/Full/Round 3. Our thanks go to for compiling these. As was predicted, Group C ended up the "Group of Death", with 670 points required for second place, and, therefore, automatic promotion. This round will probably be even tougher- again, the top two from each of the two groups will make it through, while the twelve remaining participants will compete for four wildcard places- good luck everyone!
