Ang Sherpa?
Is Ang Sherpa, which is a redlink, the same as Apa Sherpa? Everard Proudfoot (talk) 03:03, 23 May 2010 (UTC)
 * The Seattle Times article mentioned Apa Sherpa, but the article says otherwise. – CG Talk 03:04, 23 May 2010 (UTC)
 * The Apa article has been there for almost 5 years, so he's been around for a while. The Current events page says it's Apa.  This needs to be resolved.  Everard Proudfoot (talk) 03:06, 23 May 2010 (UTC)
 * His site mentions Ang and its cited, so I am presuming its right. – CG Talk 03:20, 23 May 2010 (UTC)

WikiCup 2010 May newsletter
We are half way through round 3, with a little under a month to go. The current overall leader is, who has 570 points. He leads pool C. Pools A, B and D are led by, and  respectively. Anything you worry may not receive the necessary attention before the end of the round (such as outstanding GA or FA nominations) is welcome at WikiCup/Reviews, and please remember to continue offering reviews yourself where possible. As always, the judges are available to contact via email, IRC or their talk pages, and general discussion about the Cup is welcome on the WikiCup talk page.

Two of last year's final 8, and, have dropped out of the competition, saying they would rather their place went to someone who will have more time on their hands than them next round. On a related note, a special thank you goes to for his help behind the scenes once again. There is currently a problem with the poster, perhaps caused by the new skin- take a look at this discussion and see if you can help. The competition has continued to tick over well with minimal need for judge intervention, so thank you to everyone making that possible. Good luck to all!

WikiCup 2010 June newsletter
We're half way through 2010, and the end of the WikiCup is in sight! Round 3 is over, and we're down to our final 16. Our pool winners were (A),  (B, and the round's overall leader),  (C)  and  (D, joint), but, with the scores reset, everything is to play for in our last pooled round. The pools will be up before midnight tonight, and have been selected randomly by J Milburn. This will be the toughest round yet, and so, as ever, anything you worry may not receive the necessary attention before the end of the round (such as outstanding GA or FA nominations) is welcome at WikiCup/Reviews, and please remember to continue offering reviews yourself where possible. As always, the judges are available to contact via email, IRC or their talk pages, and general discussion about the Cup is welcome on the WikiCup talk page.

Though unaffiliated with the WikiCup, July sees the third Great Wikipedia Dramaout- a project with not dissimilar goals to the WikiCup. Everyone is welcome to take part and do their bit to contribute to the encyclopedia itself.

If you're interested in the scores for the last round of the Cup, please take a look at WikiCup/History/2010/Round 3 and WikiCup/History/2010/Full/Round 3. Our thanks go to for compiling these. As was predicted, Group C ended up the "Group of Death", with 670 points required for second place, and, therefore, automatic promotion. This round will probably be even tougher- again, the top two from each of the two groups will make it through, while the twelve remaining participants will compete for four wildcard places- good luck everyone!

Archiving assistance needed
Hey ComputerGuy! I found your username at the "highly active users" page. Can you help me with archiving a talk page? It's located at Human trafficking. This is the first time I've tried to archive a talk page. Would you take a look and see if I did everything correctly?

On the collapsible archive box on the first page, the archive URLs are listed as:
 * Talk:Human trafficking/Archive 1
 * Talk:Human trafficking/Archive 2

However, on the collapsible box on Archive 1:
 * the Archive 1 link is red and
 * the URL for Archive 2 comes out as Talk:Human trafficking/Archive 1/Archive 2.

It appears as though there are two Archive 2 pages.
 * Talk:Human trafficking/Archive 2
 * Talk:Human trafficking/Archive 1/Archive 2

I'm confused. Would you mind taking a look? I appreciate your help. Cindamuse (talk) 23:29, 8 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Looks like the problem was solved... – CG Talk 01:00, 9 July 2010 (UTC)

Today's Featured Article
Re: Yeah, I've thought about that before. Usually they like featured articles to have been at that level for more than a year (not true of any of the SSFC related FAs currently) before they appear on the main page. I think they actually penalize articles that have been at FA level for less than a year. What I've been thinking about (and maybe I should post this on WT:SSFC): --SkotyWATC 17:47, 24 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Nominate Seattle Sounders FC or Qwest Field for WP:TFA for the beginning of the 2011 season.
 * Nominate 2009 Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup Final for WP:TFA on October 5th, 2010 (or whenever it actually occurs) only if the Sounders make the final. Otherwise wait till 2011's open cup final.
 * Nominate Qwest Field for WP:TFA at an opportune moment during the 2011 season (maybe for the All-Star game if we host it).
 * Good, but maybe we should nominate Seattle Sounders FC on either March 19, 2011 (2nd anniversary of first MLS game) or November 13, 2010 (or 2011, MLS announcement of franchise). – CG Talk 18:06, 24 July 2010 (UTC)
 * I think they might be flexible with the March 19th date since it's really just the 3rd Thursday in March. I'd rather have it conicide with the start of the 2011 season which will be on, or about, the 19th of March.--SkotyWATC 18:10, 24 July 2010 (UTC)
 * I reposted this on WT:SSFC so lets continue this conversation over there. --SkotyWATC 18:15, 24 July 2010 (UTC)

WikiCup 2010 July newsletter
We are half-way through our penultimate round, and nothing is yet certain. Pool A, currently led by has ended up the more competitive, with three contestants (,  and ) scoring over 500 points already. Pool B is led by, who has also scored well over 500. The top two from each pool, as well as the next four highest scorers regardless of pool, will make it through to our final eight. As ever, anything you worry may not receive the necessary attention before the end of the round (such as outstanding GA or FA nominations) is welcome at WikiCup/Reviews, and please remember to continue offering reviews yourself where possible. As always, the judges are available to contact via email, IRC or their talk pages, and general discussion about the Cup is welcome on the WikiCup talk page.

Planning has begun for the 2011 WikiCup, with open discussions concerning scoring and flags for next year's competition. Contributions to those discussions would be appreciated, especially concerning the flags, as next year's signups cannot begin until the flag issue has been resolved. Signups will hopefully open at some point in this round, with discussion about possible changing in the scoring/process opening some time afterwards.

Earlier this round, we said goodbye to, who has bowed out to spend more time on the book he is authoring with his wife. We wish him all the best. In other news, the start of this round also saw some WikiCup awards sent out by. We appreciate his enthusiasm, and contestants are of course welcome to award each other prizes as they see fit, but rest assured that we will be sending out "official" awards at the end of the competition.
