How we will see unregistered users
Hi!
You get this message because you are an admin on a Wikimedia wiki.
When someone edits a Wikimedia wiki without being logged in today, we show their IP address. As you may already know, we will not be able to do this in the future. This is a decision by the Wikimedia Foundation Legal department, because norms and regulations for privacy online have changed.
Instead of the IP we will show a masked identity. You as an admin will still be able to access the IP. There will also be a new user right for those who need to see the full IPs of unregistered users to fight vandalism, harassment and spam without being admins. Patrollers will also see part of the IP even without this user right. We are also working on better tools to help.
If you have not seen it before, you can read more on Meta. If you want to make sure you don’t miss technical changes on the Wikimedia wikis, you can subscribe to the weekly technical newsletter.
We have two suggested ways this identity could work. We would appreciate your feedback on which way you think would work best for you and your wiki, now and in the future. You can let us know on the talk page. You can write in your language. The suggestions were posted in October and we will decide after 17 January.
Thank you. /Johan (WMF)

WikiCup 2022 March newsletter
And so ends the first round of the WikiCup. Last year anyone who scored more than zero points moved on to Round 2, but this was not the case this year, and a score of 13 or more was required to proceed. The top scorers in Round 1 were:
Epicgenius, a finalist last year, who led the field with 1906 points, gained from 32 GAs and 19 DYKs, all on the topic of New York buildings.
AryKun, new to the contest, was second with 1588 points, having achieved 2 FAs, 11 GAs and various other submissions, mostly on the subject of birds.
Bloom6132, a WikiCup veteran, was in third place with 682 points, garnered from 51 In the news items and several DYKs.
GhostRiver was close behind with 679 points, gained from achieving 12 GAs, mostly on ice hockey players, and 35 GARs.
Kavyansh.Singh was in fifth place with 551 points, with an FA, a FL, and many reviews.
SounderBruce was next with 454 points, gained from an FA and various other submissions, mostly on United States highways.- Ktin, another WikiCup veteran, was in seventh place with 412 points, mostly gained from In the news items.
These contestants, like all the others who qualified for Round 2, now have to start scoring points again from scratch. Between them, contestants completed reviews of a large number of good articles as the contest ran concurrently with a GAN backlog drive. Well done all! To qualify for Round 3, contestants will need to finish Round 2 among the top thirty-two participants.
Remember that any content promoted after the end of Round 1 but before the start of Round 2 can be claimed in Round 2. Anything that should have been claimed for in Round 1 is no longer eligible for points. 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 Needed.
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 yourself from Wikipedia:WikiCup/Newsletter/Send.

WikiCup 2022 May newsletter
The second round of the 2022 WikiCup has now finished. It was a high-scoring round and contestants needed 115 points to advance to round 3. There were some very impressive efforts in round 2, with the top seven contestants all scoring more than 500 points. A large number of the points came from the 11 featured articles and the 79 good articles achieved in total by contestants.
Our top scorers in round 2 were:
- Epicgenius, with 1264 points from 2 featured article, 4 good articles and 18 DYKs. Epicgenius was a finalist last year but has now withdrawn from the contest as he pursues a new career path.
- AryKun, with 1172 points from two featured articles, one good article and a substantial number of featured article and good article reviews.
- Bloom6132, with 605 points from 44 in the news items and 4 DYKs.
Sammi Brie, with 573 points from 8 GAs and 21 DYKs.
Ealdgyth, with 567 points from 11 GAs and 34 good and featured article reviews.
Panini!, with 549 points from 1 FA, 4 GAs and several other sources.
Lee Vilenski, with 545 points from 1 FA, 4 GAs and a number of reviews.
The rules for featured and good article reviews require the review to be of sufficient length; brief quick fails and very short reviews will generally not be awarded points. Remember also that DYKs cannot be claimed until they have appeared on the main page. As we enter the third round, any content promoted after the end of round 2 but before the start of round 3 can be claimed now, and anything you forgot to claim in round 2 cannot! Remember too, 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.
If you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is at good article nominations, 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 Sophie de Ronde
On 16 April 2022, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Sophie de Ronde, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that brewer Sophie de Ronde is allergic to most beer? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Sophie de Ronde. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Sophie de Ronde), 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.
The article James Dickinson (footballer) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
With the death of WP:NFOOTY, football players must meet WP:GNG. Per the article, subject played only 2 games before moving back to non-professional footy, so it is unlikely that any coverage exists of him. I was not able to find any on a search, or even any suggestion of any (such as book mentions). The book cited is reliable, but only a listing of stats and records, not in-depth coverage; even if it was WP:SIGCOV, one source isn't enough to maintain an article.
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. ♠PMC♠ (talk) 04:20, 20 April 2022 (UTC)

Hi Dom, I've got some further comments about the article.
- "Burnley began the season confidently", next sentence: "After losing their first three games" ==> it doesn't add up
- Done
- "in the Lancashire Senior Cup, losing to Manchester City" ==> maybe add in which round this happened (semi-final)?
- Done
- In general, I would always put the highest number first when talking about the scores, e.g. 2–0 instead of 0–2, as it reads better
- Have never really agreed with this personally but will do as it's the way it's done in existing FAs
- "and nine were released" ==> as far as I can see, two were released and eleven were transferred out
- Clarified
- I would use the designation "halfback" when talking about midfielders, as they were known as such 100 years ago.
- Good point, also changed defenders to full backs
- I also would make the tables sortable, such as done in e.g. 1921–22 Cardiff City F.C. season
- Will look into this
- "giving Burnley their third successive home win" ==> needs a ref
- Don't really agree, per WP:INLINE only statements which have been challenged or are likely to be challenged need an inline ref. The three successive home wins is backed up by the prose of the paragraph (wins vs. Huddersfield, Middlesbrough + Chelsea). I can just add another ref to Simpson p152 if really necessary
- I agree with you as the info can be found elsewhere in the article, but I'm sure some reviewers will point this out unfortunately.
- Don't really agree, per WP:INLINE only statements which have been challenged or are likely to be challenged need an inline ref. The three successive home wins is backed up by the prose of the paragraph (wins vs. Huddersfield, Middlesbrough + Chelsea). I can just add another ref to Simpson p152 if really necessary
- "transporting supporters from Grassington" ==> Burnley supporters?
- Yep, added
- "against a weakened Chelsea team" ==> why was Chelsea's team weakened?
- Will have another look in the archive, see if it says.
- "The draw with Everton was succeeded by another 1–1 stalemate against the same team at Turf Moor" ==> this reads a bit odd to me
- Agreed, reworded
- "Burnley won 18 consecutive matches at Turf Moor (pictured here in 2001)" ==> I don't see this anywhere in the prose
- Clarified and reffed the caption, hopefully OK now?
- Yes
- Clarified and reffed the caption, hopefully OK now?
- "the summer of 1921" ==> I would avoid seasonal references (e.g. when it's summer in Australia it's winter over here)
- Changed to "shortly after the season"
- As you already know, make sure everything is sourced properly and clearly explained, also to non-football experts. Eem dik doun in toene (talk) 08:34, 27 May 2022 (UTC)
- @Eem dik doun in toene: Thanks, really appreciate you having a look through! BigDom (talk) 11:05, 27 May 2022 (UTC)
- No problem, I'm glad to try and help. I would indeed look at how the tables are presented in e.g. 1921–22 Cardiff City F.C. season but other than that the article looks great. By the way, what's your prediction for the upcoming Burnley season? Strangely enough I'm quite optimistic and excited about the club's rebuild! Eem dik doun in toene (talk) 20:56, 27 May 2022 (UTC)
- Cool, I'll have a go at that this evening or tomorrow. I think it depends who we get in as manager but yeah I agree, it might not be as bad as some people think. Hopefully we'll win a few more games next season at any rate! BigDom (talk) 18:08, 28 May 2022 (UTC)
- Great. Kompany will very likely be the new manager, and hopefully he can attract some decent (loan) signings (especially some midfielders). He can also really help with the development of the likes of Collins (if Collins stays of course!). But it would indeed be nice to probably see some more wins again :) Eem dik doun in toene (talk) 22:19, 28 May 2022 (UTC)
