WikiCup 2019 March newsletter
And so ends the first round of the competition. Everyone with a positive score moves on to Round 2. With 56 contestants qualifying, each group in Round 2 contains seven contestants, with the two leaders from each group due to qualify for Round 3 as well as the top sixteen remaining contestants.
Our top scorers in Round 1 were:
L293D, a WikiCup newcomer, led the field with ten good articles on submarines for a total of 357 points.
Adam Cuerden, a WikiCup veteran, came next with 274 points, mostly from eight featured pictures, restorations of artwork.
MPJ-DK, a wrestling enthusiast, was in third place with 263 points, garnered from a featured list, five good articles, two DYKs and four GARs.
Usernameunique came next at 243, with a featured article and a good article, both on ancient helmets.
Squeamish Ossifrage was in joint fifth place with 224 points, mostly garnered from bringing the 1937 Fox vault fire to featured article status.
Ed! was also on 224, with an amazing number of good article reviews (56 actually).
These contestants, like all the others, now have to start scoring points again from scratch. Between them, contestants completed reviews on 143 good articles, one hundred more than the number of good articles they claimed for, thus making a substantial dent in the review backlog. Well done all!
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 Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews.
If you want to help out with the WikiCup, please do your bit to 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!

Links to draft articles
Please do not introduce links in actual articles to draft articles, as you did to Tejano Roots Hall of Fame. Since a draft is not yet ready for the main article space, it is not in shape for ordinary readers, and links from articles should not go to a draft. Such links are contrary to the Manual of Style. These links have been removed. Thank you. - Arjayay (talk) 13:59, 22 May 2022 (UTC)

For your herculean effort in writing Patsy Torres — by far the most intricate, well-researched, complete and comprehensive draft I have reviewed. A B-class assessment doesn't quite do it justice, and if I could have, I would have given it an even higher rating. — The Most Comfortable Chair 14:59, 1 June 2022 (UTC) |

It seems like you have requested a GAN for one of Selena's songs and I have recently listed a FAC for the popular music group BTS. If you could do the review comments for the BTS article at FAC, then I could offer to do the review for your Selena song currently listed for GAN to try to move the articles forward. Any thoughts? ErnestKrause (talk) 16:43, 28 June 2022 (UTC)
- @ErnestKrause: I usually do not provide reviews that much since I feel inadequate of doing so, but I'll take a look at it. I rather you do not review my article as a WP:FAVOR, I am ok with waiting and am in no rush to get it reviewed. Best – jona ✉ 14:18, 30 June 2022 (UTC)
- I'm not sure that its meant to be a favor, as much as drawing attention to other articles being nominated. In this case, the review of any Selena article which I look at ought to include both the positive statements and separate observations and statements, which might be recommended and intended to enhance the article.

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).

Como la Flor
- Hi AJona1992, I found one sentence in "Commercial performance" confusing; I'm not sure what the bolded part of "In July 1992,[73] EMI Latin president Jose Behar booked Selena for a high-profile press tour in Monterrey, Mexico, with music-media types that were two-and-a-half times that of the United States." means, so I added a {{clarify}} template with an explanation. Also, the archive url for citation 158, "Harrison, Marino & Murray 2005", links to an archive.today snapshot of the Proquest page but the article is hidden; I don't think this is useful. You may be able to find it on the publisher's website https://www.ajc.com/, which isn't accessible in my country so I can't search for it, though the Wayback Machine has plenty of pages from that source dating from 2005 archived. There may be other refs like this, I don't know. Even Wayback isn't useful if we don't have the original url!
- Anyway, it's nice to see you're still editing on en:WP. Good luck with the article and your planned GA nom. Cheers, Baffle☿gab 04:57, 7 July 2022 (UTC)
- @Baffle gab1978: Hey, thanks for the c/e! I believe for certain it is supposed to mean music/entertainment journalists. I will go through them and check those out, thanks for looking! Best – jona ✉ 12:29, 8 July 2022 (UTC)
