WikiCup 2016 is just around the corner...
Hello everyone, and we would like to wish you all a happy holiday season. As you will probably already know, the 2016 WikiCup begins in the new year; there is still time to sign up. There are some changes we'd like to announce before the competition begins.

After two years of serving as WikiCup judge, User:Miyagawa has stepped down as judge. He deserves great thanks and recognition for his dedication and hard work, and for providing necessary transition for a new group of judges in last year's Cup. Joining Christine (User:Figureskatingfan) and Jason (User:Sturmvogel 66) is Andrew (User:Godot13), a very successful WikiCup competitor and expert in Featured Pictures; he won the two previous competitions. This is a strong judging team, and we anticipate lots of enjoyment and good work coming from our 2016 competitors.

We would also like to announce one change in how this year's WikiCup will be run. In the spirit of sportsmanship, Godot13 and Cwmhiraeth have chosen to limit their participation. See here for the announcement and a complete explanation of why. They and the judges feel that it will make for a more exciting, enjoyable, and productive competition.

The discussions/polls concerning the next competition's rules will be closed soon, and rules changes will be made clear on WikiCup/Scoring and talk pages. The judges are committed to not repeating the confusion that occurred last year and to ensuring that the new rules are both fair and in the best interests of the competition, which is, first and foremost, about improving Wikipedia.

If you have any questions or concerns, the judges can be reached on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, on their talk pages, or by email. We hope you will all join us in trying to make the 2015 WikiCup the most productive and enjoyable yet. You are receiving this message because you are listed on WikiCup/Newsletter/Send. Sturmvogel 66 (talk), Figureskatingfan (talk), and Godot13 (talk).--MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 06:47, 22 December 2015 (UTC)

WikiCup 2016: Game On!
We are about to enter the second week of the 2016 WikiCup. The most recent player to sign up brings the current total to 101 contestants. Signups close on 5 February. If you’re interested, you can join this year's WikiCup here.

We are aware that in some areas the scoring bot’s numbers are a little bit off (i.e., overly generous) and are working to have that corrected as soon as possible.--MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 18:04, 7 January 2016 (UTC)

WikiCup 2015 March newsletter


That's it, the first round is done, sign-ups are closed and we're into round 2. Forty-seven competitors move into this round (a bit shy of the expected 64), and we are roughly broken into eight groups of six. The top two of each group will go through to round 3, and then the top scoring 16 "wildcards" across all groups.

Twenty-two Good Articles were submitted, including three by, and two each by , , , and. Twenty-one Featured Pictures were claimed, including 17 by (the Round 1 high scorer). Thirty-one contestants saw their DYKs appear on the main page, with a commanding lead (28) by. Twenty-nine participants conducted GA reviews with completing nine.

If you are concerned that your nomination will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on WikiCup/Reviews. Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email.

Re: Featured topics/Casting Crowns studio albums
Hello, I'm a delegate for WP:FTC, and I was looking through some of our topics that grow over time, including one you nominated a few years ago, Featured topics/Casting Crowns studio albums. I noticed that the topic contains most of their studio albums that have articles and are also GA, but there are two albums that have articles that I feel would need to be included in the topic for it to retain its status. Namely, The Acoustic Sessions: Volume One (created less than a week after the last comment posted on the nomination) and also Glorious Day - Hymns of Faith (created in April 2015). Seeing as how the topic already contains the holiday album Peace on Earth (Casting Crowns album) in addition to the regular studio albums, I think it makes sense for all of their studio albums that have articles to be in the topic.--  十  八  21:57, 2 March 2016 (UTC)
 * I could probably work the Acoustic Sessions up fairly quickly. I'm not sure the Cracker Barrel album is really that notable, though, at least in the context of studio albums - it's a mix of new songs and songs the band previously did. Frankly I'm not even sure if it can be improved. Toa  Nidhiki05  22:41, 2 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Since Acoustic Sessions and Glorious Day are listed together on the discography, it would look very strange from the topic's point of view not to have both of them (WP:WIAFT criterion 1.d: "There are no obvious gaps"). If you don't think you can improve Glorious Day, I would suggest redirecting it to the discography article.--  十  八  03:07, 4 March 2016 (UTC)
 * I understand. Could you perhaps give me a week to get the article (or articles, if I can't get the last one to work) ready for a GA nomination? Toa  Nidhiki05  13:51, 4 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Okay.--  十  八  23:44, 5 March 2016 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited MercyMe discography, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Go Tell it on the Mountain. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Almost There (album)
Hi - in this edit to Almost There (album) you added an audio sample with text including ' Millard's vocals use "effect-riden delays" '. I am not sure what "effect-riden delays" are, (I suspect a typo) and although you have used this as a quotation, you have not cited a source, so I cannot check it. A Google search for "effect-riden delays" only has one match - our article Almost There (album) Could you please check that your quotation is correct, and if you want it to stay, cite a source - although I think it would be better in the bodytext, rather than a "caption" Thanks - Arjayay (talk) 14:49, 21 April 2016 (UTC)
