Closed nomination of He-Man as a gay icon
Hi there. Having a nomination archived always smarts. (I know from experience.) But venting frustration on reviewers who point out flaws is not appropriate. They, like you, are trying to improve the article - whether or not you agree with their specific points. The article was and is not yet ready for FAC. Take on board the points made by the reviewers who recommended withdrawal. Take it to PR. Reach out to any editors who have shown a critical interest in it - they are the people who just might help get the article into shape for FAC. Foul-mouthed sniping at volunteers giving their honest opinions is not appropriate, and from a purely pragmatic view may mean that as and when the article is in an FACable state it is archived for lack of interest as reviewers chose to put their efforts into nominations where critical comments are less, umm, robustly received. I have seen this happen and it is unfortunate. Gog the Mild (talk) 23:28, 28 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Why on earth would I listen to someone's comments when they chose to "take the bold" step and fail the entire GAN? I would have had no problem with following GhostRiver's instructions on how to improve the article. In fact, if you look at the GAN, you'll see that I very much did follow through with some of her comments, such as how to improve the prose. But what pissed me off is that she just gave up. If she wasn't up for the task, then maybe she shouldn't have taken up the task of reviewing the article. Or given me a chance to actually follow through with her comments and improve the article. Like, what was the point of starting the review only to just give up halfway through? Maybe rather than taking a bold step, she could have just put the review on hold until I fixed the sources, and then carried on with the review. Her actions were anything but constructive and showed that she cared more about finishing the review as quickly as possible rather than helping. --PanagiotisZois (talk) 10:06, 1 March 2022 (UTC)

WikiCup 2022 March newsletter
And so ends the first round of the WikiCup. Last year anyone who scored more than zero points moved on to Round 2, but this was not the case this year, and a score of 13 or more was required to proceed. The top scorers in Round 1 were:


 * Epicgenius, a finalist last year, who led the field with 1906 points, gained from 32 GAs and 19 DYKs, all on the topic of New York buildings.
 * 🇨🇽 AryKun, new to the contest, was second with 1588 points, having achieved 2 FAs, 11 GAs and various other submissions, mostly on the subject of birds.
 * Bloom6132, a WikiCup veteran, was in third place with 682 points, garnered from 51 In the news items and several DYKs.
 * GhostRiver was close behind with 679 points, gained from achieving 12 GAs, mostly on ice hockey players, and 35 GARs.
 * 🇺🇳 Kavyansh.Singh was in fifth place with 551 points, with an FA, a FL, and many reviews.
 * Flag of Provo, Utah (1989–2015).svg SounderBruce was next with 454 points, gained from an FA and various other submissions, mostly on United States highways.
 * 🇺🇳 Ktin, another WikiCup veteran, was in seventh place with 412 points, mostly gained from In the news items.

These contestants, like all the others who qualified for Round 2, now have to start scoring points again from scratch. Between them, contestants completed reviews of a large number of good articles as the contest ran concurrently with a GAN backlog drive. Well done all! To qualify for Round 3, contestants will need to finish Round 2 among the top thirty-two participants.

Remember that any content promoted after the end of Round 1 but before the start of Round 2 can be claimed in Round 2. Anything that should have been claimed for in Round 1 is no longer eligible for points. Invitations for collaborative writing efforts or any other discussion of potentially interesting work is always welcome on the WikiCup talk page. Remember, if two or more WikiCup competitors have done significant work on an article, all can claim points. If you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is at good article candidates, a featured process, or anywhere else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on WikiCup/Reviews Needed.

Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. Good luck!

GLAAD Media Award for Outstanding Comic Book
Hi PanagiotisZois - I see you reverted my edit to GLAAD Media Award for Outstanding Comic Book with the edit summary "That's actually how the tweet is written." Wikipedia's rules on quotations (Please see MOS:QUOTATIONS) may not be exactly what you would usually do, or what you might think they are. MOS:PMC gives us two options: - "If there is a significant error in the original, follow it with [sic] (producing [sic]) to show that the error was not made by Wikipedia. However, insignificant spelling and typographic errors should simply be silently corrected" I chose to follow the second option, and "silently correct" the "insignificant" typographic error, as, in that specific case, I think that is an better than adding [sic]. I don't mind which you do, but please follow MOS:PMC and either remove the duplication, as I did, or add [sic] after it - many thanks - Arjayay (talk) 20:44, 15 March 2022 (UTC)


 * Thank you for the message . After reverting your edit, I did consider adding a [sic] in there, given the grammatical error. But the fact that it's a tweet is what caused me confusion. If I was quoting the tweet within the article itself, I'd just add [sic], but the issue here isn't that simple. In a way, it's the equivalent to having an article where the title itself is grammatically incorrect. What does one do in that scenario? Do we keep the title as is in the citation, or do we correct it? I too would be fine with either scenario; whichever you prefer. PanagiotisZois (talk) 20:51, 15 March 2022 (UTC)
 * I agree these decisions are not simple, and some editors have very strong views on the guideline. Obviously, having previously corrected it, that is my personal preference, as I think [sic] is unnecessarily jarring, and can be seen as a negative comment on the writers competence - we all make mistakes, let's not emphasise them. - Arjayay (talk) 21:02, 15 March 2022 (UTC)
 * Lol, I didn't think it that way. You're right, there's no need to emphasize someone's mistakes. At least when alternatives exist. I'll change it to your version. Thank you for your help . PanagiotisZois (talk) 21:45, 15 March 2022 (UTC)

Copying licensed material requires attribution
Hi. I see in a recent addition to Draft:Harue you included material from a webpage that is available under a compatible Creative Commons Licence. That's okay, but you have to give attribution so that our readers are made aware that you copied the prose rather than wrote it yourself. It's also required under the terms of the license.

WikiCup 2022 May newsletter
The second round of the 2022 WikiCup has now finished. It was a high-scoring round and contestants needed 115 points to advance to round 3. There were some very impressive efforts in round 2, with the top seven contestants all scoring more than 500 points. A large number of the points came from the 11 featured articles and the 79 good articles achieved in total by contestants.

Our top scorers in round 2 were:


 * 1) Epicgenius, with 1264 points from 2 featured article, 4 good articles and 18 DYKs. Epicgenius was a finalist last year but has now withdrawn from the contest as he pursues a new career path.
 * 2) 🇨🇽 AryKun, with 1172 points from two featured articles, one good article and a substantial number of featured article and good article reviews.
 * 3) Bloom6132, with 605 points from 44 in the news items and 4 DYKs.
 * 4) Transgender Pride flag.svg Sammi Brie, with 573 points from 8 GAs and 21 DYKs.
 * 5) Vexilloid of the Roman Empire.svg Ealdgyth, with 567 points from 11 GAs and 34 good and featured article reviews.
 * 6) Panini!, with 549 points from 1 FA, 4 GAs and several other sources.
 * 7) 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 Lee Vilenski, with 545 points from 1 FA, 4 GAs and a number of reviews.

The rules for featured and good article reviews require the review to be of sufficient length; brief quick fails and very short reviews will generally not be awarded points. Remember also that DYKs cannot be claimed until they have appeared on the main page. As we enter the third round, any content promoted after the end of round 2 but before the start of round 3 can be claimed now, and anything you forgot to claim in round 2 cannot! Remember too, 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.

If you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is at good article nominations, a featured process, or anything 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!
