Thanks for this edit. I thought I had done that, but apparently the edit in which I tried to do it never completed and I neglected to confirm that it had. My error, and thanks for fixing it. Wtmitchell (talk) (earlier Boracay Bill) 19:53, 31 March 2021 (UTC)


 * No problem, and thank you, Wtmitchell, for protecting the page from vandalism! --Riley1012 (talk) 13:43, 1 April 2021 (UTC)

Autopatrolled
Hi Riley1012, I just wanted to let you know that I have [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3ALog&type=rights&page=User%3ARiley1012 added] the "autopatrolled" permission to your account, as you have created numerous, valid articles. This feature will have no effect on your editing, and is simply intended to reduce the workload on new page patrollers. For more information on the autopatrolled right, see Autopatrolled. However, you should consider adding relevant wikiproject talk-page templates, stub-tags and categories to new articles that you create if you aren't already in the habit of doing so, since your articles will no longer be systematically checked by other editors (User:Evad37/rater and User:SD0001/StubSorter.js are useful scripts which can help). Feel free to leave me a message if you have any questions. Happy editing! Cwmhiraeth (talk) 16:04, 23 April 2021 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited European Artistic Gymnastics Championships – Men's pommel horse, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page 2020 European Artistic Gymnastics Championships. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Your GA nomination of Larisa Iordache
Hi there, I'm pleased to inform you that I've begun reviewing the article Larisa Iordache you nominated for GA-status according to the criteria. This process may take up to 7 days. Feel free to contact me with any questions or comments you might have during this period. Message delivered by Legobot, on behalf of Aussie Article Writer -- Aussie Article Writer (talk) 19:00, 8 June 2021 (UTC)
 * I am actually really pleased with the article, but I have realised something just now. As a layman I don’t understand the scoring system used. Without context it is hard to know what to make if the scores. Could you please make a section that summarises the scoring system? I haven’t added this to the review as it may be confusing.
 * I have also started some light copy editing. The article is actually very well written, but needs a little help in how it “flows”. As I say though, the edits I’m making a quite minor. And it’s giving me a break before I start researching my next article.
 * I was, however, wondering if you might review Kate Baker? It could actually do with a non-Australian viewpoint! - Aussie Article Writer (talk) 10:16, 11 June 2021 (UTC)
 * Hi @Aussie Article Writer. Thanks again for nominating. I think a section on the scoring system within the article would not be relevant, but I added a wikilink to Code of Points (artistic gymnastics) on the first instance of a score being mentioned. Thank you for your help! I see someone has already started a review of Kate Baker, and I've never done a GA review before, but I would be happy to add some comments! -Riley1012 (talk) 00:53, 12 June 2021 (UTC)

Proposed Women in Green Editathon
Hello Riley1012 -- With the goal of helping to progress the WikiProject Women in Green (WiG) women’s rights-themed GA nomination goal for 2021, I’m proposing that WiG hold a special editathon event in the fall (maybe October/November?). I can assist with logistics, but I need to know how much interest/support there might be from WiG participants first. Please let me know what you think in the talk page conversation! All the best, Alanna the Brave (talk) 02:22, 20 July 2021 (UTC)

Larisa Iordache – update needed?
Hi there, this is scheduled for the homepage via DYK. I note that Romania at the 2020 Summer Olympics says that she's currently in Tokyo. The article does not tell me that. Could you please update this accordingly before it hits the homepage?  Schwede 66  23:54, 22 July 2021 (UTC)
 * , Thank you. I have updated the article -Riley1012 (talk) 01:07, 23 July 2021 (UTC)

WikiCup 2021 September newsletter
The fourth round of the competition has finished with over 500 points being required to qualify for the final round. It was a hotly competitive round with two contestants, 🇧🇼 The Rambling Man and Epicgenius, each scoring over 3000 points, and six contestants scoring over 1000. All but one of the finalists achieved one or more FAs during the round, the exception being Bloom6132 who demonstrated that 61 "in the news" items produces an impressive number of points. Other contestants who made it to the final are Gog the Mild, 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 Lee Vilenski,  BennyOnTheLoose, 🇷🇼 Amakuru and  Hog Farm. However, all their points are now swept away and everyone starts afresh in the final round.

Round 4 saw the achievement of 18 featured articles and 157 good articles. Bilorv scored for a 25-article good topic on Black Mirror but narrowly missed out on qualifying for the final round. There was enthusiasm for FARs, with 89 being performed, and there were 63 GARs and around 100 DYKs during the round. As we start round 5, we say goodbye to the eight competitors who didn't quite make it to the final round; thank you for the useful contributions you have made to the Cup and Wikipedia, and we hope you will join us again next year. For other contestants, remember that any content promoted after the end of round 4 but before the start of round 5 can be claimed in round 5. Remember too that you must claim your points within 14 days of "earning" them.

If you are concerned that your nomination, whether it be for a good article, 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). If you want to help out with the WikiCup, please do your bit to help keep down the review backlogs! Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email.
