Your WikiCup submission: Chris Rock–Will Smith slapping incident
Hi Skyshifter, thanks for participating in the WikiCup. Unfortunately, Chris Rock–Will Smith slapping incident is not eligible for GA points, as you were not a significant contributor to the article. According to XTools, you aren't listed as one of the top 10 editors by either edit count, added text, or authorship. Additionally, looking at Talk:Chris Rock–Will Smith slapping incident/GA2, you made a single comment at the review, whereas Feoffer primarily worked on resolving the issues with the article.

I know that this can be disappointing, but according to WikiCup/Scoring, All reviewed content must have been worked on significantly by you to receive points. "Drive by" nominations are not permitted. As a rule of thumb, I would say that, if you've authored at least 5-10% of an article or are listed in the top 10 editors by authorship (excluding things such as archiving references), you would be eligible to claim GA points. – Epicgenius (talk) 15:21, 5 February 2024 (UTC)


 * Sure thing, I understand the decision. Skyshifter   talk  15:51, 5 February 2024 (UTC)

Question
Why are you requesting another peer review of that article that you never contributed to, Chris Rock–Will Smith slapping incident? I gave it yet another peer review during my GA review. Why not revert your edit and instead, do the normal step after GA: Submit an interesting fact from the article to Did you know? Prhartcom (talk) 22:51, 5 February 2024 (UTC)


 * I would've applied your suggestions as the nominator in the GAN review, but Feoffer always got to them before I could. Nothing I could do if that's what they wanted to do. The reason why I opened a PR is because I want to bring it to FAC. But yes, I can also get it to DYK. Skyshifter   talk  22:56, 5 February 2024 (UTC)


 * OK. This article doesn't need another PR right now; I would revert that; I've always considered PR below GA, and then that's it ... next is FAC. Go for it. Prhartcom (talk) 00:13, 6 February 2024 (UTC)
 * ah, I never saw it that way. A lot of people open PRs before opening a FAC, even when the article is already a GA. But to be honest, I don't know if I should go to FAC, at least right now, as I'm planning to nominate other articles instead soon. I'll think about it.

As a reminder, competitors may submit work for the first round until 23:59 (UTC) on 27 February, and the second round starts 1 March. Remember that only the top 64 scoring competitors will make it through to the second round; currently, competitors need at least 15 points to progress. 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 GAN, FAC and all the other pages that require them to prevent any backlogs which could otherwise be caused by the Cup.

WikiCup 2024 March newsletter
The first round of the 2024 WikiCup ended at 23:59 (UTC) on 27 February. Everyone with at least 30 points moved on to Round 2, the highest number of points required to advance to the second round since 2014. Due to a six-way tie for the 64th-place spot, 67 contestants have qualified for Round 2.

The following scorers in Round 1 all scored more than 300 points:


 * , who has 916 points mostly from one FA on John Littlejohn (preacher), 15 GAs, and 16 DYKs on a variety of topics including New Zealand coinage and Inuit figures, in addition to seven reviews
 * , who has 790 points from two FAs on Felix M. Warburg House and Doom (2016 video game), two GAs, one DYK, and 11 reviews
 * , who has 580 points from one FA on Hö'elün, two GAs on Mongolia-related articles, two DYKs, and five reviews
 * , who has 420 points mostly from nine GAs and seven DYKs on television and radio stations
 * , who has 351 points from one FA on Holidays (Meghan Trainor song), a nine-article FT on 30 (album), and three DYKs
 * , who has 345 points from one FA on OneShot, one DYK and two reviews

In this newsletter, the judges would like to pay a special tribute to, who unfortunately passed away this February. At the time of his death, he was the second-highest-scoring competitor. Outside the WikiCup, he had eight other featured articles, five A-class articles, eight other good articles, and two Four Awards. Vami also wrote an essay on completionism, a philosophy in which he deeply believed. If you can, please join us in honoring his memory by improving one of the articles on his to-do list.

Remember that any content promoted after 27 February but before the start of Round 2 can be claimed in Round 2. 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. If you want to help out with the WikiCup, feel free to review one of the nominations listed on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews Needed. Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages. Good luck!

Hi, I wanted to ask if you still want to leave feedback on the Etika peer review. I'm archiving it later tonight (midnight PST), but I'd be open to extending it if you have any more comments for the rest of the article. Thanks, PantheonRadiance (talk) 01:40, 5 March 2024 (UTC)

Improving my draft
Do you have any suggestions on how to find better sources for my article? Salfanto (talk) 13:24, 20 March 2024 (UTC)


 * The article lacks reliable sources — you can find a list of reliable video game sources at WP:VG/S. These sources should also give significant coverage to the subject.
 * Unfortunately, I don't know if it's possible to find better sources for that article. Metacritic didn't index any review, and indeed, apparently nobody reviewed the game, which already makes it difficult for the game to be notable. I couldn't find any reliable source that covers the game. It's possible that the game doesn't have notability for an article, currently. Skyshifter   talk  13:29, 20 March 2024 (UTC)
 * I do have one source from Metacritic Salfanto (talk) 13:38, 20 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Metacritic itself doesn't give notability. It's only useful for finding reviews. Like I said, the page for the game on Metacritic didn't index any review. (I am talking about reviews because they are the best way of showing WP:SIGCOV from reliable sources). In its current state the game doesn't meet WP:GNG.

MrBeast GA reviews
Skyshifter, this article has been failed twice by the reviewer, the most recent time with the nominator having only addressed part of the issues raised during the review, so it is not appropriate for you to restore the nomination, especially with an old date that gives it seniority. The nominator should wait to renominate until they have finished dealing with the issues raised; whether they do or don't, they should be the ones to nominate, not you, and using the future date when they nominate, not last November. I have reverted your recent edit on the article talk page. Thank you. BlueMoonset (talk) 02:51, 30 March 2024 (UTC)
 * The issues raised were basically 2 word changes... anyway. The reviewer took the review two times and barely started it in both instances. In both instances, the nomination wasn't failed because of issues with the article, but because the reviewer lost interest. It seems extremely unfair to the nominator that the article has to be renominated with the current date — yes, the seniority you mentioned seemed to be the most appropriate in this circumstance.
