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 Wikipedia: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 Wikipedia:WikiCup/Newsletter/Send. Sturmvogel 66 (talk), Figureskatingfan (talk), and Godot13 (talk).--MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 06:46, 22 December 2015 (UTC)
Your FLC nom
As long as the request doesn't descend into canvassing, I have no issue with asking a couple of trusted editors for reviews. December is always slow at FLC, so I understand that you might need to stimulate some interest in the list. Giants2008 (Talk) 00:09, 23 December 2015 (UTC)
- Giants2008 (Talk) - Right now it's at 3 supports, should I work on getting another reviewer?-Godot13 (talk) 06:11, 29 December 2015 (UTC)
- Three supports is often a key threshold for promotion. The biggest problem you have is that myself and PresN, two of the FLC closers, are both recused now that we've supported. @SchroCat:, are you willing to close this one when the time comes? Giants2008 (Talk) 23:06, 29 December 2015 (UTC)

Best wishes for your Christmas Is all you get from me 'Cause I ain't no Santa Claus Don't own no Christmas tree. But if wishes was health and money I'd fill your buck-skin poke Your doctor would go hungry An' you never would be broke." —C.M. Russell, Christmas greeting 1914. Montanabw(talk) |
POTD notification
Hi Godot, the Educational Series will be running as POTD on the 14th of January. If you want to have a look over the captions, they are available at Template:POTD/2016-01-14/1, Template:POTD/2016-01-14/2, and Template:POTD/2016-01-14/3.
OK, here is one
-
- !). This one we were hoping for with Yngvadottir for a while - she wrote the article, and it was meant to be nominated. Hafspajen (talk) 20:39, 29 December 2015 (UTC)
-
- 1) And three more noms This article is ready.
- 2)The other, needs an article here is the file. Article is here: User:Hafspajen/Japanese Footbridge.
-
-
- 3) This might be simply added, with some little additions. It has an article too, but needs some more to expand. An article, same title, same artist but different painting....?? [2] No problem, plenty of sources. Hafspajen (talk) 16:01, 6 November 2015 (UTC)
-
-
-
- No hurry- it will be fine in a couple of days... The first one it would be nice if Yngvadottir can co-nom it. They worked hard to fix that article ... with you or me or ... all three? (Unless there will be a new row.. ahem). Either way, Yngvadottir should be in the nom. The rest is ours. Hafspajen (talk) 16:40, 30 December 2015 (UTC)
-
- Hafs and Yngvadottir- Stalheim is ready. Why don't the two of you co-nom. I'm happy to support, but (and, ahem, no new row) I'm not sure how I feel about the majority of support (3 out of the required 5 supports) coming from possible nominators. Please, the two of you should co-nom...--Godot13 (talk) 02:55, 1 January 2016 (UTC)
-
-
-
-
-
- Folks, I'll go ahead and change the image in the article, and I think it should be a featured picture if the Google scan merits it (I have no eye for the quality of reproductions past a certain low point): it's a very important picture in Norway and truly lovely, so much so that I embarrassed everybody by letting out a great shout when I was in a bus and suddenly saw the actual view ... but I don't do featured stuff. Please go ahead without naming me :-) Yngvadottir (talk) 12:34, 1 January 2016 (UTC)
-
-
-
-
- You do it. Yngvadottir wrote it, Godot uploaded it. I support. Hafspajen (talk) 15:58, 13 January 2016 (UTC)

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a search with the contents of WikiCup/History/2016/Submissions/Liance, and it appears to be very similar to another Wikipedia page: Wikipedia:WikiCup/History/2016/Submissions/ZappaOMati. It is possible that you have accidentally duplicated contents, or made an error while creating the page— you might want to look at the pages and see if that is the case. If you are intentionally trying to rename an article, please see Help:Moving a page for instructions on how to do this without copying and pasting. If you are trying to move or copy content from one article to a different one, please see Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia and be sure you have acknowledged the duplication of material in an edit summary to preserve attribution history.
It is possible that the bot was mistaken and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. CorenSearchBot (talk) 04:51, 21 January 2016 (UTC)

One to check?
I mentioned it in passing on the talk page, but in my opinion, Royroydeb's 2 GAs don't show any substantive work in 2016.
Zesh Rehman This one looks like he's added content, but if you actually compare the revisions, it's taking out a couple of things, and just changing the format of the dates in the cites - clearly not worthy of the points.
Darren O'Dea This one, he's just taken out one sentence and formatted a table.
I am sure you have lots to check and I thought these might sneak through because at first glance it looks okay - but they're clearly not, and I thought you'd want to nip it in the bud before he continues on flouting the rules.
Thanks. Neekeem (talk) 22:37, 23 January 2016 (UTC)
- ETA - his DYK is even worse. Rafa Jordà
- He clearly needs a bit of guidance or you'll have to disqualify him at the end of the round and we won't have time to sort it out and be able to progress. @Figureskatingfan: @Sturmvogel 66: Neekeem (talk) 17:44, 25 January 2016 (UTC)

Antarctica
I hope you enjoyed your visit to Antarctica and I imagine you now have a large number of images of cold places and things. I saw you had written and illustrated an article on the Carbajal Valley (are you going to submit it for DYK?), but there are no articles, as far as I can see, on the mountains on either side of your valley. I was wondering if you would like to consider co-operating on any articles, either existent or new, for which you now have suitable images. Besides writing articles on organisms, I am interested in ecology, national parks, geography etc., especially of places with extreme environments such as deserts, mountains, bogs and ice sheets. Let me know if you would be interested. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 13:44, 10 February 2016 (UTC)
- Hi Cwmhiraeth- I think that's a good idea. I was actually thinking the same thing a few days ago when I realized I was pushing my comfort zone writing about glacial geology... I've processed most of my Antarctica photos and am working on the aerial Tierra del Fuego ones now. Most of what has been written on the geography of the area is on the Spanish Wikipedia, and not very detailed. You're correct, neither the Alvear mountain range nor the Vinciguerra range to the south have articles, there is another range (need to get the name) adjacent to it. But I need to see what good illustrative images I have. Look here to see current possibilities (the aerial section is incomplete). Possibilities include: Ojo del Albino Glacier, Laguna Esmeralda (or both together for a GA or better combination), porpoising behavior in penguins (good images of all the major penguin types in the Antarctic peninsula in action). I'm working on a set of images (fair quality) of a Stanley, Falkland Islands war memorial to the British soldiers killed in the 1982 conflict. This too would need an article. In short, I'm sure we can find several opportunities to collaborate.--Godot13 (talk) 18:41, 10 February 2016 (UTC)

- They're beautiful photographs. It might be possible to expand some existing articles like Tabarin Peninsula, Antarctic Sound or Trinity Island, but I think it would be difficult to find much about the Patagonian glaciers, mountains or lakes at the top of your collection. This is a nice book source.Cwmhiraeth (talk) 19:31, 10 February 2016 (UTC)
- I found most of the (limited) information for the Carbajal from academic research papers. The Ojo del Albino (and the resulting Laguna) may have some similar info, along with tourism info as they are recommended hiking sites in the area. I agree about the others. I have no images of Trinity Island per se, only those taken of the very small island in the harbour. For things like the peninsula or sound, would you give me your opinion (as a more objective editor in this case) of which images would be most encyclopedic in those cases?--Godot13 (talk) 23:15, 10 February 2016 (UTC)
- I have expanded Tabarin Peninsula, but I found the geological part hard and I couldn't find a suitable url for the main pdf source. I suggest you choose whatever images you think best. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 21:12, 11 February 2016 (UTC)
- I added two images to correspond with the geographical locations mentioned on the peninsula. There's no way to picture the entire peninsula (barring a NASA image...), but I'll look for some others.-Godot13 (talk) 21:55, 11 February 2016 (UTC)
- If you want to add any images to it, or replace the one that is there, I have now got around to enlarging Antarctic Sound. Looking at your other images, most are birds, and although the Trinity Island, Mikkelsen Harbor and D'Hainaut Island articles could be expanded, there's a limit to how many bird images you can add to a particular geographical article. However, some of the species articles like Wandering albatross would benefit from the addition of better images. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 14:11, 17 February 2016 (UTC)
- I'm currently editing another 1-2 images of wandering albatross behavior and will look at them against the others I have to add another to the article. Having only written FLs and never an FA, how much work do you think would be involved to get Penguin to GA and/or FA? I've been collecting penguin references since I got back as I thought about writing an article on penguin porpoising behavior (numerous illustrations). Would such an article need to be part of a larger one, or could it stand alone?--Godot13 (talk) 18:49, 17 February 2016 (UTC)
- The article Penguin is not at all well-referenced and would need quite a bit of work. GA would be doable, and FA considerably more difficult because for FA an article needs to be comprehensive. It is probably easier to work on a penguin species article for GA or FA, rather than an all-embracing family/order article. You could approach an experienced bird editor for a joint endeavour. My first bird FAs were Western jackdaw with Cas Liber and Common starling with Jimfbleak, and I learnt a lot in the process. I would have thought an article on penguin porpoising behavior would be interesting and could stand alone, and then a paragraph on the subject could also be added to the article Penguin.

333-blue
Godot13, you pinged me when you did a talk-page post to 333-blue noting that the two GA review submissions were inadequate, and made some recommendations, one of which was to get some mentoring. 333 ignored that suggestion, the same as when I made a similar one a while back.
333-blue's next edit after your post was to open a new GA review, Talk:Hi-Level/GA1, which has just been promoted. While longer, the review was as much a disaster as the earlier ones. This will make three problematic GA reviews in a row, and it's not fair to the people who nominate the articles even if 333 does end up passing them: we don't know whether they are Good Articles because the criteria aren't understood or being applied properly.
I was surprised to see that 333-blue, during the above GA review, went to comment on last month's completed peer review of Hi-Level, and has started a peer review for one of the articles you disallowed GA review credit for, Wikipedia:Peer review/Hyōgo-ku, Kobe/archive1, because 333 wants to promote it to FA. When I looked at the article at the time 333 passed it, my thought was that it was not GA quality and still needed some work.
This is someone who doesn't understand the GA criteria or how they should be applied, and unfortunately the lure of WikiCup points is what got 333 started and probably continues to drive the reviews. I'm very much hoping you and the other judges will bar 333 from this category of participation, given a persistent inability to conduct a proper review. I've banged my head against this particular brick wall already.
Thank you for your consideration. BlueMoonset (talk) 06:25, 24 February 2016 (UTC)

- Hello, what I can discuss about. 333-blue 09:17, 24 February 2016 (UTC)
- The reason what I reviewed after the notice was I want to try more, and to learn experiences. 333-blue 09:45, 24 February 2016 (UTC)
- With respect, until you do understand, you should not be doing them (at least not without supervision). This is why getting help form an experienced reviewer (before doing more reviews) is important...--Godot13 (talk) 09:48, 24 February 2016 (UTC)
- I failed again, could you give me some more advices? 333-blue 09:51, 24 February 2016 (UTC)
- This is not an issue of passing or failing, it's about learning to do something (that is not simple). I've only done one GAR so I'm not the best person to be giving advice on how to approach them. If you reach out on Wikipedia_talk:Good_articles or to a specific editor/reviewer you've observed you may be able to find someone who can mentor you.-Godot13 (talk) 10:16, 24 February 2016 (UTC)

You also have to understand that once an article has passed GA, it shouldn't need anything else beyond possible updating, vandalism removal, etc, or expansion to go to FA. You're not going to get Wikicup points for fussing at articles that have already passed GAN. White Arabian Filly (Neigh) 22:18, 24 February 2016 (UTC)

Hey
Did you go through the Good Article reviews and remove the unworthy ones? — Calvin999 21:57, 28 February 2016 (UTC)
- In what I reviewed, I removed 8 GAR, 10 DYK, 1 GA, and 1 FL. I almost removed another DYK where a 5x expansion was submitted several days past the seven day deadline (and promoted due to some supplemental rule loophole), but I adopted a live and let live mindset instead...--Godot13 (talk) 23:22, 28 February 2016 (UTC)
- DYK's are allowed if they were submitted after the deadline if there isn't a backlog so that's okay. I think I found more than 8 when I previously contacted you. Suggestion for next year: I'd consider removing points for GARs altogether. People abuse it. — Calvin999 09:06, 29 February 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 Cyclonebiskit (submissions), and two each by MPJ-DK (submissions), Hurricanehink (submissions), 12george1 (submissions), and Cas Liber (submissions). Twenty-one Featured Pictures were claimed, including 17 by Adam Cuerden (submissions) (the Round 1 high scorer). Thirty-one contestants saw their DYKs appear on the main page, with a commanding lead (28) by Cwmhiraeth (submissions). Twenty-nine participants conducted GA reviews with J Milburn (submissions) completing nine.
