Your GA nomination of Johan Ruijsink
The article Johan Ruijsink you nominated as a good article has passed ; see Talk:Johan Ruijsink for comments about the article, and Talk:Johan Ruijsink/GA1 for the nomination. Well done! If the article has not already appeared on the main page as a "Did you know" item, or as a bold link under "In the News" or in the "On This Day" prose section, you can nominate it within the next seven days to appear in DYK. Bolded names with dates listed at the bottom of the "On This Day" column do not affect DYK eligibility.

WikiCup 2023 May newsletter
The second round of the 2023 WikiCup has now finished. Contestants needed to have scored 60 points to advance into round 3. Our top five scorers in round 2 all included a featured article among their submissions and each scored over 500 points. They were:


 * Iazyges (1040) with three FAs on Byzantine emperors, and lots of bonus points.
 * Unlimitedlead (847), with three FAs on ancient history, one GA and nine reviews.
 * Epicgenius (636), a WikiCup veteran, with one FA on the New Amsterdam Theatre, four GAs and eleven DYKs
 * BennyOnTheLoose (553), a seasoned competitor, with one FA on snooker, six GAs and seven reviews.
 * 🇩🇪 FrB.TG (525), with one FA, a Lady Gaga song and a mass of bonus points.

Other notable performances were put in by Sammi Brie,  Thebiguglyalien,  MyCatIsAChonk,  PCN02WPS, and  AirshipJungleman29.

So far contestants have achieved thirteen featured articles between them, one being a joint effort, and forty-nine good articles. The judges are pleased with the thorough reviews that are being performed, and have hardly had to reject any. 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.

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. Sturmvogel 66 and Cwmhiraeth.

DYK for 2023 Tour Championship

Replied at Articles for deletion/Tommy Sheehan (Survivor contestant)
Hey there. I replied to you at Articles for deletion/Tommy Sheehan (Survivor contestant). George Ho (talk) 05:31, 14 May 2023 (UTC)


 * If I'm honest, I didn't really understand your reply. 1E is an exemption for GNG. The way I've always interpreted this, is that if an article meets GNG, but all of the items are discussing one thing that they did, then they aren't notable, the thing is potentially notable (and in this case, the thing is Survivor, so it should be redirected). However, in my eyes, there's a few sources talking about Sheehan doing other things (even if they undoubtedly mention Survivor), which to me gets around it being a 1E situation. There was someone else who suggested that for a BLP you should have to discount all items referring to that single event and see if they still meet GNG (or any N), which might be a valid understanding, but not the one I have.

 * I made more replies there. Hopefully, I'm clearer this time. If not, perhaps I failed again. George Ho (talk) 19:00, 17 May 2023 (UTC)
