WikiCup 2011 June newsletter
We are half way through 2011, and entering the penultimate round of this year's WikiCup; the semi-finals are upon us! Points scored in the interim (29/30 June) may be counted towards next round, but please do not update your submissions' pages until the next round has begun. 16 contestants remain, and all have shown dedication to the project to reach this far. Our round leader was who, among other things, successfully passed three articles through featured article candidates and claimed an impressive 29 articles at Did You Know, scoring 555 points. Casliber led pool D. Pool A was led by, claiming points for a featured article, a featured list and seven good article reviews, while pool C was led by , who claimed for two good articles, ten articles at Did You Know and four good article reviews. They scored 154 and 118 respectively. Pool B was by far our most competitive pool; six of the eight competitors made it through to round 4, with all of them scoring over 100 points. The pool was led by, who claimed for, among other things, three featured articles and five good articles. In addition to the four pool leaders, 12 others (the four second places, and the 8 next highest overall) make up our final 16. The lowest scorer who reached round 4 scored 76 points; a significant increase on the 41 needed to reach round 3. Eight of our semi-finalists scored at least twice as much as this.

No points were awarded this round for featured pictures, good topics or In the News, and no points have been awarded in the whole competition for featured topics, featured portals or featured sounds. Instead, the highest percentage of points has come from good articles. Featured articles, despite their high point cost, are low in number, and so, overall, share a comparable number of points with Did You Know, which are high in number but low in cost. A comparatively small but still considerable number of points come from featured lists and good article reviews, rounding out this round's overall scores.

We would again like to thank and  for invaluable background work, as well as all of those helping to provide reviews for the articles listed on WikiCup/Reviews. Please do keep using it, and please do help by providing reviews for the articles listed there. However, please remember to continue to offer reviews generally at GAC, FAC and all the other pages that require them to prevent any backlogs which could otherwise be caused by the Cup.

Two final notes: Firstly, please remember to state your participation in the WikiCup when nominating articles at FAC. Finally, some WikiCup-related statistics can be seen here and here, for those interested, though it appears that neither are completely accurate at this time. As ever, questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup and the judges are reachable on their talk pages, or by email. Good luck!

Over There (Fringe) FAC
Hi there! Love all your dog articles! :) Anyways, waaaay back in late March, you reviewed one of my articles, Over There (Fringe). It is now on its second run at FAC, and I was wondering if you wouldn't mind looking it over and possibly supporting it (of course if you feel it merited). Its last candidacy failed due to a lack of reviewers, and I'm worried the same thing might happen again. Thanks very much! :)  R uby2010   comment!  22:10, 8 July 2011 (UTC)

Smalandstovare + thread on Reliable Sources Noticeboard
Hi Miyagawa, I apologize for not getting back to you about the article and Bruce Fogle book sooner. I had it checked out from the library but someone had reserved it before I could renew it and it's still out. However, I do have a very similar book (same layout, images, publisher) that I purchased years ago and will look for tomorrow -- it has lots of info about many rare breeds.

Also, I've started a thread on the Reliable Sources Noticeboard that you may be interested in at Reliable sources/Noticeboard. Best wishes, Anna  talk 23:32, 9 July 2011 (UTC)


 * Thanks for understanding. I'll be attempting to remove the sources I identified in the thread (except for the magazine and vet-overseen ones) from breed articles over the next few days. Tedious but worth it in the long run, hopefully! FYI, while I'm here, I've taken a PROD you contested -- Mountain View Cur -- to AfD, in case you want to comment: Articles for deletion/Mountain View Cur Anna  talk 14:10, 11 July 2011 (UTC)

 * Thanks for the note on my talk page. I'm replying here, to point out that I've left comments at Talk:The Cenotaph, Whitehall. I did mention this above, but only in a note I added later so you might have missed it. Would you be able to have a look at those comments, as I think one of the statements in the article is wrong? The talk page comments include one of the books I have, so you can look that up if you want. It might be simpler, though, for me to add to the article myself using the books I have. There are some thing I don't have access to, so I'll need to look some things up at the library as well. The library I tend to use for really obscure stuff is the British Library as well, funnily enough. But I'm trying to save up several things for one trip and organise myself properly, rather than do piecemeal stuff (which is what I did on the first few visits).

GA assessment of Meat dress of Lady Gaga
It has come to the attention of several Ambassadors and mentors that some students that lack knowledge and experience editing on Wikipedia have been attempting to participate in official review and assessment of articles, primarily for Good Article status. Others are offering second opinions to an official review being performed by other editors. Unfortunately, the review of the above referenced article was performed by a new student editor. For that reason, I recommend a new review, disregarding the initial attempt by the student. I realize that for some editors, this may be quite frustrating. Please accept my apologies for any disruption this may have caused. If you have questions, please don't hesitate to contact me either on my talk page or through email. Best regards, Cind.   amuse  (Cindy) 19:14, 31 July 2011 (UTC)

WikiCup 2011 July newsletter
We are half way through the penultimate round of this year's WikiCup; there is less than a month to go before we have our final 8. Our pool leaders are (Pool A, 189 points) and  (Pool B, 165 points). The number of points required to reach the next round is not clear at this time; there are some users who still do not have any recorded points. Please remember to update your submissions' pages promptly. In addition, congratulations to PresN, who scored the first featured topic points in the competition for his work on Thatgamecompany related articles. Most points this round generally have, so far, come from good articles, with only one featured article (White-bellied Sea Eagle, from ) and two featured lists (Hugo Award for Best Graphic Story, from PresN and Grammy Award for Best Native American Music Album, from ). Points for Did You Know and good article reviews round out the scoring. No points have been awarded for In the News, good topics or featured pictures this round, and no points for featured sounds or portals have been awarded in the entire competition. On an unrelated note, preparation will be beginning soon for next year's WikiCup- watch this space!

There is little else to be said beyond the usual. Please list anything you need reviewing on WikiCup/Reviews, so others following the WikiCup can help, and please do help if you can by providing reviews for the articles listed there. However, please remember to continue to offer reviews generally at GAC, FAC and all the other pages that require them to prevent any backlogs which could otherwise be caused by the Cup- points are, of course, offered for reviews at GAC. Two final notes: Firstly, please remember to state your participation in the WikiCup when nominating articles at FAC. Finally, some WikiCup-related statistics can be seen here and here.

Proposed merger of American Akita and Akita Inu
Hi Miya, It is proposed that American Akita and Akita Inu be merged into Akita (dog), which currently is a redirect to Akita Inu. I had American Akita up for GA, which has been on hold for a while until we can get this merger resolved. I've made a proposal merged article, if the consensus decides that a merger would be better.

WikiCup 2011 July newsletter
The finals are upon us; we're down to the last few. One of the eight remaining contestants will be this year's WikiCup champion! 150 was the score needed to progress to the final; just under double the 76 required to reach round 4, and more than triple the 41 required to reach round 3. Our eight finalists are:


 * , Pool A's winner. Casliber has the highest total score in the competition, with 1528, the bulk of which is made up of 8 featured articles. He has the highest number of total featured articles (8, 1 of which was eligible for double points) and total did you knows (72) of any finalist. Casliber writes mostly on biology, including ornithology, botany and mycology.
 * , Pool B's winner and the highest scorer this round. PresN is the only finalist who has scored featured topic points, and he has gathered an impressive 330, but most of his points come from his 4 featured articles, one of which scored double. PresN writes mostly on video games and the Hugo Awards.
 * , Pool A's runner-up. Hurricanehink's points are mostly from his 30 good articles, more than any other finalist, and he is also the only finalist to score good topic points. Hurricanehink, as his name suggests, writes mostly on meteorology.
 * , Pool B's runner-up. Wizardman has completed 86 good article reviews, more than any other finalist, but most of his points come from his 2 featured articles. Wizardman writes mostly on American sport, especially baseball.
 * , the "fastest loser" (Pool A). Miyagawa has written 3 featured lists, one of which was awarded double points, more than any other finalist, but he was awarded points mostly for his 68 did you knows. Miyagawa writes on a variety of topics, including dogs, military history and sport.
 * , the second "fastest loser" (Pool B). Most of Resolute's points come from his 9 good articles. He writes mostly on Canadian topics, including ice hockey.
 * , who was joint third "fastest loser" (Pool A). Most of Evan's points come from his 10 good articles, and he writes mostly on meteorology.
 * , who was joint third "fastest loser" (Pool B). Most of Phil's points come from his 9 good articles, 4 of which (more than any other finalist) were eligible for double points. He writes mostly on aeronautics.

We say goodbye to our seven other semi-finalists,, , , , , and. Everyone still in the competition at this stage has done fantastically well, and contributed greatly to Wikipedia. We're on the home straight now, and we will know our winner in two months.

In other news, preparations for next year's competition have begun with a brainstorming thread. Please, feel free to drop by and share any thoughts you have about how the competition should work next year. Sign ups are not yet open, but will be opened in due course. Watch this space. Further, there has been a discussion about the rule whereby those in the WikiCup must delcare their participation when nominating articles at featured article candidates. This has resulted in a bot being created by new featured article delegate. The bot will leave a message on FAC pages if the nominator is a participant in the WikiCup.

A reminder of the rules: any points scored after August 29 may be claimed for the final round, and please remember to update submission pages promptly.
