.jpg)
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.
If you are concerned that your nomination will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews.

WikiCup 2016 March newsletter (update)
Along with getting the year wrong in the newsletter that went out earlier this week, we did not mention (as the bot did not report) that Cas Liber (submissions) claimed the first Featured Article Persoonia terminalis of the 2016 Wikicup.

What about the ref?
For this edit to Sarmientosaurus your edit summary says "trivia removed" but you left the reference attached to the statement behind. I can find a statement in the source supporting the sentence you removed (not very well) and I can find some statements that may be supporting the statement to which you left the reference attached but it's not so direct. Did you mean to leave the reference behind in your edit? Jason Quinn (talk) 15:52, 27 April 2016 (UTC)

"... watched you repeatedly lie ..."
So, in this diff you make a somewhat unpleasant accusation that I have "repeatedly lied". I wonder if you would be good enough to provide me multiple diffs that support that please? Or perhaps I don't understand what it is you think I have been (allegedly) deliberately misleading the community about. Thanks. The Rambling Man (talk) 08:42, 13 June 2016 (UTC)
- Nudge. The Rambling Man (talk) 14:10, 16 June 2016 (UTC)
- Ok, if you don't respond (and I know you've read this), then I'll remove your fallacious personal attacks, thanks. The Rambling Man (talk) 21:22, 17 June 2016 (UTC)
- Remove my comments and I'll go straight to ANI. Abductive (reasoning) 00:37, 18 June 2016 (UTC)
- Fine, then please supply me with diffs that prove that I "repeatedly lied" or I'll redact them as a personal attack. ANI is fine by me because I'm made more than reasonable attempts for you to provide evidence for you claims. You have until the end of the weekend, or I'll see you ANI myself. The Rambling Man (talk) 05:35, 18 June 2016 (UTC)
- here's where I complained but you have repeatedly said that there was no problems/complaints with the trial. Abductive (reasoning) 18:58, 19 June 2016 (UTC)
- Not good enough. That is very far from "repeatedly lying" about something. As for your final statement, yes, I believe that to be the case, just as you believe it not to be the case, it's called "opinion". But I have not accused you have "repeatedly lying". So I'll see you at ANI tomorrow morning. The Rambling Man (talk) 19:44, 19 June 2016 (UTC)
- Not good enough. I want the diffs where I "repeatedly misrepresent" please. As noted above, I have repeated my opinion that the trial was a success, as have many other editors (but you don't personally attack them), but remember, success is a subjective metric in this case. If you meant "repeatedly state" then that makes a lot more sense. Otherwise you're still in WP:NPA territory and we'll sort it out the dramaboard way, as you suggested. The Rambling Man (talk) 04:46, 20 June 2016 (UTC)
- You said nobody had a problem with the trial or its results, ignoring people's complaints--not just mine. You said that in several places, even after I pointed out that people had complaints/problems with the trial and associated fallout. You oversold constantly in an attempt to ram this awful thing down our gullets. Even now you are trying to ram this thing through with wikilawyering. Abductive (reasoning) 05:06, 20 June 2016 (UTC)
- Yes, and you yourself misrepresented what I did and how I did it. As for ramming things through, did you not see that I was in favour of keeping the RFC open, despite overwhelming support? Are all the others who support this (the vast majority) also trying to "ram this thing through"? I'm not sure I know what you mean by wikilawyering, but what I do know is that you have made a number of ill-founded complaints, all of which have been addressed, which leaves you (and many of the other opposition) squarely in the "I don't like it" brigade. In any case, thank you for rephrasing your comment, our trip to ANI can be delayed for the moment. The Rambling Man (talk) 06:52, 20 June 2016 (UTC)
