WikiCup 2011 September newsletter
We are on this year's home straight, with less than a month to go until the winner of the 2011 WikiCup will be decided. The fight for first place is currently being contested by, and , all of whom have over 200 points. This round has already seen multiple featured articles (1991 Atlantic hurricane season from Hurricanehink and Northrop YF-23 from Sp33dyphil) and a double-scoring featured list (Miyagawa's 1948 Summer Olympics medal table). The scores will likely increase far further before the end of the round on October 31 as everyone ups their pace. There is not much more to say- thoughts about next year's competition are welcome on the WikiCup talk page or the scoring talk page, and signups will open once a few things have been sorted out.

If you are concerned that your nomination, be it at good article candidates, a featured process or anywhere else, will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on WikiCup/Reviews. However, please remember to continue to offer reviews at GAC, FAC and all the other pages that require them to prevent any backlogs which could otherwise be caused by the Cup. As ever, questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup and the judges are reachable on their talk pages, or by email. Good luck! If you wish to start receiving or stop receiving this newsletter, please feel free to add or remove yourself from WikiCup/Newsletter/Send. J Milburn and The ed17 12:58, 1 October 2011 (UTC)

Hurricane Waldo
Hello YE, I have reviewed Hurricane Waldo (1985) for GA. The comments I left can be viewed here. Regards,--12george1 (talk) 17:54, 6 October 2011 (UTC)

Reminder
I just need to remind you that the quality of the article does not play a role in tagging it. Make sure you (and many people) don't get hyped up just because of a simple rating, as ratings can change. And, what are tags for?  Darren 23 Edits 00:21, 8 October 2011 (UTC)

1975 Pacific hurricane season GA review
FYI, I'm working on the review; please don't edit it yet as I'm working on it, but you can start fixing the issues. Sorry if it's so critical, but the issues are just jumping out at me.  HurricaneFan 25  19:02, 13 October 2011 (UTC)
 * GA on hold; you can post there now.  HurricaneFan 25  20:40, 13 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Article still looks a bit on the low-end side of a GA, though it's good enough. Passing! :)  HurricaneFan 25  21:00, 15 October 2011 (UTC)

Re: article
I'd rather not do Javier, I would rather start new articles from scratch. I'm not as good with picking up where someone else left off and trying to improve upon, as it's usually already further along than I would have gotten. atomic 77  32  18:30, 18 October 2011 (UTC)

FYI
I've passed Newton :). Also, I've addressed or replied to all of your concerns at the GAN for the Keys hurricane.  HurricaneFan 25  22:12, 22 October 2011 (UTC)

pp-dispute
You forgot to tl the pp-dispute template when you posted a request on WP:RFPP. Fortunetely, I found it, and fixed it to use tl, as shown here. It was making a lot of admin dashboard userpages appear at Category:Wikipedia pages with incorrect protection templates, so I had to fix it. Hope you understand, though. I know it was an honest accident. LikeLakers2 (talk &#124; Sign my guestbook!) 17:39, 24 October 2011 (UTC)

Hurricane Huko
Just an FYI, I've reviewed Huko.  HurricaneFan 25  21:59, 28 October 2011 (UTC)

DYK for List of off-season Pacific hurricanes
— HJ Mitchell &#124;  Penny for your thoughts?   00:03, 29 October 2011 (UTC)

Note...
...that I passed your 1949 PHS article under the assumption that you would fix the issues you replied to. It's all fine now.  HurricaneFan 25  20:19, 30 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Both GAs passed, but just a question — any satellite images for Hazel '65?  HurricaneFan 25  20:26, 30 October 2011 (UTC)

Happy Halloween!
