Wow!
Just thought I'd stop by to say "Wow". I haven't been so active in recent months, but when I come back from time to tine I see all your great work on historical football topics. It is great to see someone relatively new working so diligently in this area and generating quality work. Cbl62 (talk) 16:55, 3 August 2021 (UTC)

QPQ
As for QPQ I have started to create my first DYK review: Template:Did you know nominations/Messe modale en septuor. The article in question has not yet been checked for plagiarism and I don't know whether a QPQ has been done, or is needed. JIP | Talk 16:20, 23 June 2022 (UTC)
- Your review looks good. You just need to check for copyvios (which can be done by clicking "Earwig's Copyvio Detector" in the DYK Toolbox, listed on the right side of the DYK nomination) and check whether or not the DYK hook is cited in the article. Once you finish those add your QPQ to the Kuappi nomination and I will approve it. Also, it appears the nominator of Messe modale en septuor needs to provide a QPQ.

- I ran Earwig's Copyvio Detector and it gave the article a rating of "violation unlikely". Therefore I think the nominated article is free of plagiarism. I updated the review and linked it from my own nomination. JIP | Talk 18:47, 23 June 2022 (UTC)
- @JIP: The nominator of the Messe modale en septuor DYK has provided a QPQ so I think you should approve it now. BeanieFan11 (talk) 21:33, 3 July 2022 (UTC)

The page already had a VfD and was deleted unanimously, why are you keeping it? – Ilovemydoodle (talk) 05:49, 3 July 2022 (UTC)
- Speedy Deletion criteria G4 ("Recreation of a page that was deleted per a deletion discussion") says
This applies to sufficiently identical copies, having any title, of a page deleted via its most recent deletion discussion.
The most recent deletion discussion for this topic was Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Let's Go Brandon (2nd nomination), which was closed as speedy keep, per the previous AFD which overwhelmingly had a consensus to keep. So G4 does not apply to the FJB redirect. BeanieFan11 (talk) 16:18, 3 July 2022 (UTC)
WikiCup 2022 July newsletter
The third round of the 2022 WikiCup has now come to an end. Each of the sixteen contestants who made it into the fourth round had at least 180 points, which is a lower figure than last year when 294 points were needed to progress to round 4. Our top scorers in round 3 were:
- BennyOnTheLoose, with 746 points, a tally built both on snooker and other sports topics, and on more general subjects.
- Bloom6132, with 683 points, garnered mostly from "In the news" items and related DYKs.
- Sammi Brie, with 527, from a variety of submissions related to radio and television stations.
Between them contestants achieved 5 featured articles, 4 featured lists, 51 good articles, 149 DYK entries, 68 ITN entries, and 109 good article reviews. 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.
If you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is a good article nomination, a featured process, or anything else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia: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! If you wish to start or stop receiving this newsletter, please feel free to add or remove your name from Wikipedia:WikiCup/Newsletter/Send.

DYK for Paul Chadick
On 4 July 2022, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Paul Chadick, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Paul Chadick performed so well in the Delaware River Basketball League that a sportswriter said it would "benefit the league if he retired"? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Paul Chadick. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Paul Chadick), and if they received a combined total of at least 416.7 views per hour (i.e., 5,000 views in 12 hours or 10,000 in 24), the hook may be added to the statistics page. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page. |
