Welcome to the 2019 WikiCup!
Hello and Happy New Year!

Welcome to the 2019 WikiCup, the competition begins today. If you have already joined, your submission page can be found here. If you have not yet signed up, you can add your name here and we will set up your submissions page. One important rule to remember is that only content on which you have completed significant work during 2019, and which you have nominated this year, is eligible for points in the competition, the judges will be checking! Any questions should be directed to one of the judges, or left on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup. Signups will close at the end of January, and the first round will end on 26 February; the 64 highest scorers at that time will make it to round 2. Good luck! The judges for the WikiCup are, , and.

The Three Kings
Happy Epiphany! Tell me, how is The Three Kings the primary topic? The composer's title was "Die Könige", and it is part of a larger work, - only translating and arranging made it The Three Kings which I believe should be a redirect to the biblical Magi. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 09:19, 6 January 2019 (UTC)

YPF DYK
Thanks for your continued support of my DYK for Young People Fucking. I'm honestly not sure if I should shine light on it for attention to form consensus or leave it alone. My worst fear is that it gets pulled from the queue, ends up in limbo, then is rejected for being old/stale. I guess it depends on which admin(s) are on point that day. It's just a title, though, it's not like there's any objectionable material in the article itself. – Reidgreg (talk) 06:04, 25 January 2019 (UTC)
 * No problem . I would suggest that given it has been approved according to policy and held for the specific day which it meets the brief for, I would say leave it alone (AFD hooks don't get much attention until about a week before 1 April). It shouldn't get pulled but please make sure everything is in order as (and I've had this happen to me), it will get an extra level of scrutiny just because it has a swear word in it.

 * Willdo. I'll try to visit the nearest reference library next month for one source (difficult to find box office figures for independent films), and will request a GOCE copyedit to proof it for any problems. – Reidgreg (talk) 16:31, 25 January 2019 (UTC)

WikiCup 2019 March newsletter
And so ends the first round of the competition. Everyone with a positive score moves on to Round 2. With 56 contestants qualifying, each group in Round 2 contains seven contestants, with the two leaders from each group due to qualify for Round 3 as well as the top sixteen remaining contestants.

Our top scorers in Round 1 were:


 * 🇺🇸 L293D, a WikiCup newcomer, led the field with ten good articles on submarines for a total of 357 points.
 * Pirate_Flag_of_Henry_Every.svg, a WikiCup veteran, came next with 274 points, mostly from eight featured pictures, restorations of artwork.
 * 🇩🇰 MPJ-DK, a wrestling enthusiast, was in third place with 263 points, garnered from a featured list, five good articles, two DYKs and four GARs.
 * 🇺🇸 Usernameunique came next at 243, with a featured article and a good article, both on ancient helmets.
 * Flag of the United States Library of Congress 2.svg Squeamish Ossifrage was in joint fifth place with 224 points, mostly garnered from bringing the 1937 Fox vault fire to featured article status.
 * Ed! was also on 224, with an amazing number of good article reviews (56 actually).

These contestants, like all the others, now have to start scoring points again from scratch. Between them, contestants completed reviews on 143 good articles, one hundred more than the number of good articles they claimed for, thus making a substantial dent in the review backlog. Well done all!

Remember that any content promoted after the end of Round 1 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.

If you want to help out with the WikiCup, please do your bit to keep down the review backlogs! Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. Good luck!

Regarding archiving
May I ask why you have reverted my edits? Archiving a talk page is recommended practice, as very long talk pages are unwieldy and are difficult to load for slower browsers. Additionally, you requested talk page archiving by placing the archiveme Template. Rob3512  chat?   what I did   19:12, 5 March 2019 (UTC)
 * I didn't request that. That was an old tag placed by someone else which I never go around to removing.  The C of E God Save the Queen!  ( talk ) 20:25, 5 March 2019 (UTC)
 * I see, however you're still strongly encouraged to archive this talk page, and I'd even wager that at this size (nearly half a megabyte), it's bordering on mandatory that you do so. The archive pages that I've created (User talk:The C of E/Archive 2 to 9) are still available for you to use. Rob3512   chat?   what I did   01:14, 6 March 2019 (UTC)

NPR Newsletter No.17


Hello ,


 * News
 * The WMF has announced that Google Translate is now available for translating articles through the content translation tool. This may result in an increase in machine translated articles in the New Pages Feed. Feel free to use the tag and gently remind (or inform) editors that translations from other language Wikipedia pages still require attribution per WP:TFOLWP.


 * Discussions of interest
 * Two elements of CSD G6 have been split into their own criteria: R4 for redirects in the "File:" namespace with the same name as a file or redirect at Wikimedia Commons (Discussion), and G14 for disambiguation pages which disambiguate zero pages, or have "(disambiguation)" in the title but disambiguate a single page (Discussion).
 * db-blankdraft was merged into G13 (Discussion)
 * A discussion recently closed with no consensus on whether to create a subject-specific notability guideline for theatrical plays.
 * There is an ongoing discussion on a proposal to create subject-specific notability guidelines for chemicals and organism taxa.


 * Reminders
 * NPR is not a binary keep / delete process. In many cases a redirect may be appropriate. The deletion policy and its associated guideline clearly emphasise that not all unsuitable articles must be deleted. Redirects are not contentious. See a classic example of the templates to use. More templates are listed at the R template index. Reviewers who are not aware, do please take this into consideration before PROD, CSD, and especially AfD  because not even all admins are aware of such policies, and many NAC do not have a full knowledge of them.


 * NPP Tools Report
 * Superlinks – allows you to check an article's history, logs, talk page, NPP flowchart (on unpatrolled pages) and more without navigating away from the article itself.
 * copyvio-check – automatically checks the copyvio percentage of new pages in the background and displays this info with a link to the report in the 'info' panel of the Page curation toolbar.
 * The NPP flowchart now has clickable hyperlinks.

Passion hymn
Can you help? German has a specific term, Passionslied, for hymns around the Passion of Jesus, the English category is Passion hymn. Only, how to link to informaton about what that is? Passion Hymns is a dedicated work. Passion hymn is not even a redirect. Passion music (which I just changed from pointing to Passion (music) because much Passion music is NOT a Passion like Bach's works and others) also gives no information about hymns. Sorry if I asked this before, and if I just overlooked something. A little section would be minimum, I think. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 09:54, 11 April 2019 (UTC)
