Metropolitan Cities in India
Regarding your edit on Coimbatore, refer to the below link which lists the metropolitan cites of India. http://www.cpcb.nic.in/EnvironmetalPlanning/ground/Chapter3.pdf

Also, the census data classifies 1mn+ cities as metropolitan cities and 10mn+ cities as mega cities.

Your assumptions seems to be based on A-1 cities classified for HRA constitute metro cities. Magentic Manifestations (talk) 06:36, 9 December 2017 (UTC)


 * The 2011 census report doesn't define what constitutes a "metropolitan area" let alone a "metropolis". The age-old document that you've quoted should strictly be taken into considerations for the purpose of census alone; it does not provide any basis for the city being eco/political/ cultural center as you claim. And FYI, "metropolis" is different from "metropolitan", at least in the Indian context - Coimbatore is noway comparable to metropolises like Tokyo, Shanghai, NYC, Karachi, Delhi, et al, Interestingly, the article itself claims: Coimbatore is the largest non-metro city for e-commerce in South India. It's you who are "pushing" POV, not me. &mdash; Vensatry (talk) 08:26, 9 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Census defines the metropolitan area and a population for it. If you want to go by the official definition, then the stand is correct that the city is a metro. If you go by the wiki definition of a metropolis being an eco/political/ cultural center (which is by the way not my claim, it is what the article claims), as you have not laid any definition as to what is an eco/political/cultural center, the city is a eco/political/cultural center going by the contents (as the region's eco/political/cultural scenario is largely concentrated around the city). Coimbatore does not have to be Tokyo or Shanghai to qualify as this argument seems weird as you have a mindset that only those cities are metros (which seems more of your POV). You also selectively take sources for your advantage like the quote Coimbatore is the largest non-metro city for e-commerce in South India. whereas you choose to ignore the Govt of India defn. If your argument is of the date of the reference, it can also be said as outdated and Govt. continuous to maintain the same defn. till date. My opinion is that if there has been no discussion on this, this can benefit from taking others views as well.Magentic Manifestations (talk) 15:03, 24 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Er, the "non-metro" claim is present in the article; I did not add it. Assuming that you were the one who added it, I was merely pointing out the inconsistency in your argument. &mdash; Vensatry (talk) 05:18, 25 December 2017 (UTC)

WikiCup 2018 March newsletter
And so ends the first round of the competition, with 4 points required to qualify for round 2. With 53 contestants qualifying, the groups for round 2 are slightly smaller than usual, with the two leaders from each group due to qualify for round 3 as well as the top sixteen remaining users.

Our top scorers in round 1 were:


 * 🇺🇸 Aoba47 led the field with a featured article, 8 good articles and 42 GARs, giving a total of 666 points.
 * 🇩🇪 FrB.TG, a WikiCup newcomer, came next with 600 points, gained from a featured article and masses of bonus points.
 * 🇮🇳 Ssven2, another WikiCup newcomer, was in third place with 403 points, garnered from a featured article, a featured list, a good article and twelve GARs.
 * 🇺🇸 Ceranthor, 🇮🇳 Numerounovedant, Carbrera, 🇳🇱 Farang Rak Tham and 🇷🇴 Cartoon network freak all had over 200 points, but like all the other contestants, now have to start again from scratch. A good achievement was the 193 GARs performed by WikiCup contestants, comparing very favourably with the 54 GAs they achieved.

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 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. Good luck!

WikiCup 2018 May newsletter
The second round of the 2018 WikiCup has now finished. Most contestants who advanced to the next round scored upwards of 100 points, but two with just 10 points managed to scrape through into round 3. Our top scorers in the last round were:


 * 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Cas Liber, our winner in 2016, with three featured articles
 * Iazyges, with nine good articles and lots of bonus points
 * 🇮🇳 Yashthepunisher, a first time contestant, with two featured lists
 * SounderBruce, a finalist last year, with seventeen good topic articles
 * 🇺🇸 Usernameunique, a first time contestant, with fourteen DYKs
 * Muboshgu, a seasoned competitor, with three ITNs and
 * Courcelles, another first time contestant, with twenty-seven GARs

So far contestants have achieved twelve featured articles between them and a splendid 124 good articles. Commendably, 326 GARs have been completed during the course of the 2018 WikiCup, so the backlog of articles awaiting GA review has been reduced as a result of contestants' activities. As we enter the third round, remember that any content promoted after the end of round 2 but before the start of round 3 can be claimed in round 3. Remember too that you must claim your points within 14 days of "earning" them. When doing GARs, please make sure that you check that all the GA criteria are fully met; most of the GARs are fine, but a few have been a bit skimpy.

If you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is at good article nominations, a featured process, or anywhere else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on WikiCup/Reviews Needed (remember to remove your listing when no longer required). Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. Good luck!

Hi Vensatry. Hope you are doing well. It's a been a long time. I have a concern over this article's FA status. Since you were key to taking this to FA, I thought of dropping a message to you so that you could see what could be done to improve it rather than getting it stripped of its FA tag. &mdash;  LeoFrank  Talk 11:56, 30 April 2018 (UTC)
 * I'm doing good. Good to see you back! About the article, do you think it needs to be taken to WP:FAR? &mdash; Vensatry (talk) 07:23, 1 May 2018 (UTC)
 * I hate to see articles getting stripped of their FA status. I hope there is a way to address some of the issues in the article? Else, we may have to take it to FAR. &mdash;  LeoFrank  Talk 07:37, 1 May 2018 (UTC)

WikiCup 2018 July newsletter
The third round of the 2018 WikiCup has now come to an end. The 16 users who made it to the fourth round had at least 227 points. Our top scorers in round 3 were:


 * Courcelles, a first time contestant, with 1756 points, a tally built largely on 27 GAs related to the Olympics
 * 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Cas Liber, our winner in 2016, with two featured articles and three GAs on natural history and astronomy topics
 * SounderBruce, a finalist last year, with a variety of submissions related to transport in the state of Washington

Contestants managed 7 featured articles, 4 featured lists, 120 good articles, 1 good topic, 124 DYK entries, 15 ITN entries, and 132 good article reviews. Over the course of the competition, contestants have completed 458 GA reviews, in comparison to 244 good articles submitted for review and promoted. As we enter the fourth round, remember that any content promoted after the end of round 3 but before the start of round 4 can be claimed in round 4. Please also remember that you must claim your points within 14 days of "earning" them. When doing GARs, please make sure that you check that all the GA criteria are fully met. Please also remember that all submissions must meet core Wikipedia policies, regardless of the review process; several submissions, particularly in abstruse or technical areas, have needed additional work to make them completely verifiable.

WikiCup 2018 September newsletter
The fourth round of the 2018 WikiCup has now come to an end. The eight users who made it to the final round had to score a minimum of 422 points to qualify, with the top score in the round being 4869 points. The leaders in round 4 were:


 * Courcelles scored a magnificent 4869 points, with 92 good articles on Olympics-related themes. Courcelles' bonus points alone exceeded the total score of any of the other contestants!
 * Kees08 was second with 1155 points, including a high-scoring featured article for Neil Armstrong, two good topics and some Olympics-related good articles.
 * 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Cas Liber, with 1066 points, was in third place this round, with two featured articles and a good article, all on natural history topics.
 * Other contestants who qualified for the final round were 🇲🇭 Nova Crystallis, Iazyges,  SounderBruce,  🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 Kosack and 🇺🇸 Ceranthor.

During round four, 6 featured articles and 164 good articles were promoted by WikiCup contestants, 13 articles were included in good topics and 143 good article reviews were performed. There were also 10 "in the news" contributions on the main page and 53 "did you knows". Congratulations to all who participated! It was a generally high-scoring and productive round and I think we can expect a highly competitive finish to the competition.

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 10 days of "earning" them.

Hello Vensatry, been a while. How are things going on with your good self? BTW, Kailash29792 has listed this article about a 1965 cult classic film in Tamil cinema for peer reviewing with the intention of preparing it for FAC and subsequently taking it to FA. As always, your constructive comments would be deeply appreciated. Also do have a look at his other FAC. Thank you. — Ssven2  Looking at you, kid 08:16, 6 October 2018 (UTC)

 * One thing you could do is, point out any potentially non-RS in the PR, so I can remove it before going to FAC. I don't want a repeat of what happened during MM's first FAC. -- Kailash29792 (talk)  05:36, 7 October 2018 (UTC)
