WikiCup 2024 July newsletter

The third round of the 2024 WikiCup ended on 28 June. As with Round 2, this round was competitive: each of the 16 contestants who advanced to Round 4 scored at least 256 points.

The following editors all scored more than 400 points in Round 3:

The full scores for round 3 can be seen here. So far this year, competitors have gotten 28 featured articles, 38 featured lists, 240 good articles, 92 in the news credits, and at least 285 did you know credits. They have conducted 279 featured article reviews, as well as 492 good article reviews and peer reviews, and have added 22 articles to featured topics and good topics.

Remember that any content promoted after 28 June but before the start of Round 4 can be claimed during Round 4, which starts on 1 July at 00:00 (UTC). 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 for a good article, featured content, or anything else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews Needed.

If you would like to learn more about rules and scoring for the 2024 WikiCup, please see this page. Further questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup and the judges (Cwmhiraeth (talk · contribs), Epicgenius (talk · contribs), and Frostly (talk · contribs)) are reachable on their talk pages.

Do you remember general director Julius Koritschoner?
Would you like to take a look at my next rough draft? Emil Kahane
My head is spinning: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Emil_Kahane --Virtualiter (talk) 21:54, 10 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, Virtualiter -- Thank you for reaching out for help! At present, I'm having trouble sorting through the Emil Kahane draft to understand his importance. It's worth noting that you can also create drafts in the draft space or in your sandbox. There, you can work on an article without it needing to meet various Wikipedia standards. Significa liberdade (she/her) (talk) 22:31, 10 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

[3] Are you typing all this yourself? Hopefully you realize that the source code becomes uneditable with something like that. --Virtualiter (talk) 17:34, 11 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Virtualiter: I did not type all that myself. I used a tool called ReFill. Can you explain how the source code became uneditable? Significa liberdade (she/her) (talk) 20:50, 11 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, take a look at this. Because of all the table formatting in the source text, you can no longer see where the story continues. 1166 Bytes is an halfe article!! --Virtualiter (talk) 10:53, 12 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Virtualiter: It looks like the "book" cited there is a collection of essays. Do you know which essay you were citing? If so, the list of authors could be shorter. I tried searching the book for some of the information in the cited sentence but couldn't find the exact essay. Also, it may be helpful to edit using the Visual Editor -- at least sometimes -- to get around cumbersome citations. Significa liberdade (she/her) (talk) 14:58, 12 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The article from Raymond Bardeen Ladoo[4]. Serial No. 2142 (as single essay). How could ReFill read the name? But shouldn't it be enough to just give Google Books the page number? --Virtualiter (talk) 16:00, 12 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Virtualiter: Reference updated. Significa liberdade (she/her) (talk) 16:14, 12 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Well, I think I've run out of ideas. Would you like to take another look? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Eduard_Elbogen --Virtualiter (talk) 20:01, 19 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hi, @Significa liberdade ? --Virtualiter (talk) 18:54, 21 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Virtualiter: I'll add it to my to-do list, but I can't promise I'll get to it quickly. I have a lot of work on my plate right now and am using Wikipedia mostly to relax when I have time. Significa liberdade (she/her) (talk) 23:11, 21 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Caroline Girvan page

Hello, I recently created my first page, on the YouTube trainer Caroline Girvan. I saw your Advertisement tag, so I went back and edited the entry to reduce the promotional tone. Could you check it out again and see if it passes muster? (I have no skin in this game other than wanting the entry to be decent.) Thank you. Carrie McLaren (talk) 16:46, 17 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for making those updates, @Monkeywire! I've gone ahead and removed the tag from the page. Significa liberdade (she/her) (talk) 20:03, 17 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Paulette Flint, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page University of New England.

Speedy deletion declined: Taleh Ziyadov

Hello Significa liberdade. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Taleh Ziyadov, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: not sufficiently identical to the deleted version. Thank you. Firefangledfeathers (talk / contribs) 17:13, 19 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for letting me know, Firefangledfeathers! I was on edge about whether to remove the CSD tag, so it's good to hear from you. :) Significa liberdade (she/her) (talk) 18:53, 19 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
You're welcome! Thanks for tagging. There's really no way for non-admins to know how similar the versions are, so keep it up. Firefangledfeathers (talk / contribs) 18:55, 19 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, Can you please check this page Srikanth Odela and mark this page as Reviewed? BubbleWombleBee12 (talk) 11:39, 27 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, BubbleWombleBee12: Can you add more sources that provide significant coverage of Odela? Significa liberdade (she/her) (talk) 13:20, 27 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Yes I have added few sources, Please check. Directors and producers collaborate with stars like Nani. Srikanth Odela is once again directing a pan-India film with Nani. His directorial debut, Dasara, has crossed ₹100 crore at the box office, and Odela has been nominated for two awards in the Best Director category.BubbleWombleBee12 (talk) 13:51, 27 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Wayward Children discussion?

Hi. My point was that the changes could stay while a merge discussion took place. Aren't you going to start a discussion? Dan Bloch (talk) 05:27, 29 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
