Hey Jaguar, could you please reformat the importance scale to include a bottom category, I do not know how to do that. I put it on the Project talk page but I don't think you noticed... Thanks, Alex the Nerd (talk) 22:35, 1 February 2017 (UTC)Alex the Nerd

Your GA nomination of Medstead

The article Medstead you nominated as a good article has failed ; see Talk:Medstead for reasons why the nomination failed. If or when these points have been taken care of, you may apply for a new nomination of the article. Message delivered by Legobot, on behalf of Bungle -- Bungle (talk) 21:41, 3 February 2017 (UTC)

Category:Western Thrace

Is there an obvious reason why this category should link to Portal:Turkey and not to Portal:Greece? As you review every edit by hand (and only make 50 edits per minute), I expect you did this on purpose. —Kusma (t·c) 21:43, 3 February 2017 (UTC)

Uh, that's strange. I did add it on purpose but had no idea Western Thrace was a province of Greece and not Turkey. FYI, I manually removed around 100 miscategorised cats on Armenia and Turkish Cyprus before editing, so I did make the thorough pre-requisite checks. Thanks for letting me know—I've corrected the portal. JAGUAR  22:32, 3 February 2017 (UTC)

I haven't had access to a computer running Windows in ages, so I haven't used AWB for a long time. Back when I did, something like ten years ago, I ran into similar trouble when trying to find categories that might be suitable to be mass-tagged for WikiProjects. I gave up automatically including subcategories quickly, as so many of them were slightly offtopic. The category system has improved quite a bit since then, but is still messy enough to require a lot of attention in order to avoid mis-taggings when you base any AWB edits on categories. —Kusma (t·c) 20:01, 4 February 2017 (UTC)

Sometimes it comes down to bad categorisation, and in rare cases (like what happened yesterday) the person tagging them doesn't know that it shouldn't be there. I remember a couple of years ago I found Taiwan tagged in the Guam category, which made no sense! Although I took extra steps to minimise mistakes, I had no idea Western Thrace was in Greece and couldn't have known unless I was savvy with Turkish geography or if I searched for the article itself. Anyway, I've stopped tagging now—I don't know how some people manage to do it! JAGUAR  22:43, 4 February 2017 (UTC)

Question about a GA Review for Mozilla Public License

I started a GA Review of this article but the nominator said they don't have time to work on improving it right now. They've asked if they could withdraw the nomination without having it be "counted as a failure". If you could weigh in on their talk page that would be helpful.
As an aside to all of this, since I will then be unable to complete the Review, I assume I won't receive any GA Cup points for it - not sure how to do all the cleanup from a GA nom withdrawal (in terms of the code/templates/etc). Thanks, Shearonink (talk) 17:23, 10 February 2017 (UTC)

@Shearonink: you still gave a proper review for the article, so you should still receive your points in the GA Cup. When you close the review, it still technically counts as a "fail" regardless of the circumstances. I wouldn't say it's a bad thing in this case, though, so I'll let Pokajanje know. JAGUAR  17:28, 10 February 2017 (UTC)

Ok, thanks for the reply and letting them know - they did seem concerned about having a "failure" on their record. So, I want to confirm (since it's never happened to me in the course of GA Reviewing) - I now have to "Fail" the article within my Review. Shearonink (talk) 18:08, 10 February 2017 (UTC)

Editor of the Week

		Editor of the Week
		Your ongoing efforts to improve the encyclopedia have not gone unnoticed: You have been selected as Editor of the Week for serving on GA Cup judging team. Thank you for the great contributions! (courtesy of the Wikipedia Editor Retention Project)

User:Shearonink submitted the following nomination for Editor of the Week:

I would like to nominate the entire Judging Team of the present GA Cup. In the course of a competition - from the First Round through the Finals, they had to score and judge an untold number of GA Reviews - and MrWooHoo has less than 4000 edits! What these editors do is pretty darn amazing. All 5 editors take the time for a friendly competition that gets folks to plow through the GA backlog and make a difference around here! I don't really know if this Gang of Five - MrWooHoo, Jaguar, ZwergNase, 3family6, Figureskatingfan - are all well-known or not. Some of them have toiled on the GA Cup since its inception. All I know is that whenever I have a question or a concern, they answer it quickly and that the Judging/Points-scoring seems very fair. I don't know how they can keep up with the blizzard of Reviews and the points and the judging and answering posts and so on and so on. Editor Figureskatingfan has won Editor of the Week before but I hope is eligible to receive a second. I sure as heck think they all deserve it as a group.

Quid pro quo

Hi Jaguar. I currently have Resident Evil 5 nominated for FAC (see here) but it's only gotten one reviewer in over a fortnight. I notice you have several video-game related articles at GAN. I was wondering if you'd like to trade reviews? If you're happy to comment on my nomination I'll review one of your nominations. No worries if you're not interested or too busy. Have a nice day. Freikorp (talk) 07:29, 13 February 2017 (UTC)

I left some comments, but I'll come back and take another look at it soon. You're welcome to take any of my GANs—I'd appreciate it! JAGUAR  18:41, 13 February 2017 (UTC)

Hello again. So my FAC now has three votes of support including yours, which I am quite pleased about; thanks again. Anyway having played this game many times before I know that since nobody has done one yet, in a week or two one of the FAC co-coordinators will ask somebody to do a source check before the article is promoted. I'd like to beat them to that, if I can haha. If you're interested I'd be happy to review two of your Wipeout GAN's in exchange for you reviewing the first (or second) half of the sources at RE5 to check they back up what they say they do. But as always, no pressure, you've been a big help already. :) Freikorp (talk) 09:16, 8 March 2017 (UTC)

I'll be happy to, Freikorp! I should finish the source review by tomorrow at the latest if that's OK. Once those two Wipeout GANs are out of the way then it will finally become a Good Topic, which is exciting. JAGUAR  12:59, 9 March 2017 (UTC)

Hello again. Just letting you know that I've finished the initial comments for both the GANs, but I won't be able to follow up any of your replies for a couple days as I'm going away. :) Freikorp (talk) 11:57, 13 March 2017 (UTC)

Thanks! No worries. I've got more time now so I'll get to attending those GANs right away. JAGUAR  16:36, 13 March 2017 (UTC)

Hitomi Tanaka page deletion

I've created a new Hitomi Tanaka page. I used sources from Playboy, New York Daily News, TV Tokyo and others and it should be fine in my opinion. Since you were involved in the discussion before, I wanted to bring you back.ChiefWahooMcDonalds (talk) 22:11, 15 February 2017 (UTC)

Video games reception sections

I was looking back over the reception section in Burning Rangers, which I think you improved significantly by the end of the FAC, and I wanted to ask if you think it would be worth adding something about reception sections to the videogame guidelines page. I'm not at all involved with the WikiProject, and didn't want to poke my nose in without getting another opinion, and since we'd recently had a conversation about it at the FAC I thought I'd ask you.

I've reviewed a few videogame articles at FAC over the years, and I think the problems I commented on for Burning Rangers are very widespread, not just in videogames but in TV and film articles too. I think it would be helpful to codify some principles, not just in a user essay such as the one I wrote, but in WikiProject guidelines. I've no doubt the principles would go beyond the points I made, but of course I'd like to see those in there too. Do you think this is worth suggesting? Is that guideline actively maintained and referred to, or is it not something most WikiProject members would pay attention to? Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 23:07, 15 February 2017 (UTC)

@Mike Christie: I've been thinking about this lately too. I agree wholeheartedly; after reading your essay and implementing the improved changes on Burning Rangers, it has actually changed my mind on how I should write reception sections. It will take some getting used to, but overall it's a much better way of writing a reception section. The problem is very widespread, but up until now I'm sure not many people are aware of alternative ways of writing them. Speaking of which, I recently wrote a large reception section for Wipeout 2048 (just before my epiphany at Burning Rangers), and looking back at it, I think it's a monotonous and arbitrary list in prose form (rest assured I will get around to changing it before I nominate it for FA!). I have around 70 video game GAs and counting, but only one of them has a 'premium' reception section. I think it's absolutely worth perusing this idea as it will benefit the readers, though I can't help but think it might be difficult to implement. Since czar is more adept than me at writing reception sections, perhaps he would like to chime in. We would have to think of a way of how to rework this guideline, and decide whether or not it should be more of a recommendation for FAs or if it should be encouraged for all articles. The guidelines are all actively maintained, and I'm confident all WPVG regulars abide by them. JAGUAR  23:43, 15 February 2017 (UTC)

(talk page stalker) I saw this and it occurred to me that and it occurred to me that my reception sections are full of "A said B"s! (Ridge Racer Revolution#Reception, Black & White (video game)#Reception, Dungeon Keeper#Reception, Theme Hospital#Reception, Theme Park (video game)#Reception, Dungeon Keeper 2#Reception, Micro Machines (video game)#Reception, Micro Machines 2: Turbo Tournament#Reception, Destruction Derby 2#Reception, and Dungeon Keeper (2014 video game)#Reception all spring to mind) I guess I need to start improving or rewriting them... Adam9007 (talk) 03:46, 16 February 2017 (UTC)

• I was planning on adding a section to the guideline on common FA writing tips but haven't gotten around to it. Much easier to point editors to the same advice that invariably affects each nom than to repeat it anew. czar 05:04, 16 February 2017 (UTC)

  I was wondering if this method of writing reception sections should be recommended for GAs as well as FAs, or if it should just be a loose tip in the guidelines. Adam, I have like 50 reception sections that could do with rewriting! But I'll definitely change my attitude next time I nominate something for FA. JAGUAR  10:53, 16 February 2017 (UTC)

I havent been back to your AWB work on the 4th (hard to wade through your edit storm of the 14th and nearby) - but if you have any sense of self preservation - go back and check the others close to that edit - I know some people in Indonesia or Malaysia who would have your guts for garters JarrahTree 00:21, 22 February 2017 (UTC)

99.9% is overly optimistic, as evidenced by Category:Bishops of Leicester (ancient), Category talk:Councillors in the East Riding of Yorkshire and a handful similar, the questionable Category:Woodland Trust... not to mention that you added and then removed Portal:Essex to quite a lot of pages. Looking through your AWB contributions, one almost certainly finds a mistake. At your rate of sometimes 50 edits per minute, the reason is (AGAIN) that you do not review your edits properly.

March 2017 WikiCup newsletter

And so ends the first round of the competition, with 4 points required to qualify for round 2. It would have been 5 points, but when a late entrant was permitted to join the contest in February, a promise was made that his inclusion would not result in the exclusion of any other competitor. To achieve this, the six entrants that had the lowest positive score of 4 points have been added to the 64 people who otherwise would have qualified. As a result, some of the groups have nine contestants rather than eight. Our top four scorers in round 1 were:

• Cas Liber, last year's winner, led the field with two featured articles on birds and a total score of 674.
• Iry-Hor, a WikiCup newcomer, came next with a featured article, a good article and a tally of 282 bonus points for a score of 517. All these points came from the article Nyuserre Ini, an Ancient Egyptian pharaoh,
• 1989, another WikiCup newcomer, was in joint third place at 240. 1989 has claimed points for two featured lists and one good article relating to anime and comedy series, all of which were awarded bonus points.
• Peacemaker67 shared third place with five good articles and thirteen good article reviews, mostly on naval vessels. He is also new to the competition.

The largest number of DYKs have been submitted by Vivvt and The C of E, who each claimed for seven, and MBlaze Lightning achieved eight articles at ITN. Carbrera and Peacemaker67 each claimed for five GAs and Krishna Chaitanya Velaga was well out in front for GARs, having reviewed 32. No featured pictures, featured topics or good topics yet, but we have achieved three featured articles and a splendid total of fifty good articles.

So, on to the second round. 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 equally.

If you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is a good article candidate, a featured process, or anything 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 help 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!

Question

Is the IP addresses concern about the article valid considering what you said in your support for the Naruto Uzumaki article? MCMLXXXIX 10:38, 3 March 2017 (UTC)

@1989: I was about to add a comment regarding the validity of the IP's oppose, but deleted it before I published the edit. I don't think it is valid to be honest. They didn't specify on what is missing or if the book they mentioned will add any significant content to the article. I think it's comprehensive enough, but if the IP isn't going to add anything then their oppose should be treated with a pinch of salt. It certainly doesn't fail the comprehensiveness part of the criteria—I wouldn't worry about it. JAGUAR  10:43, 3 March 2017 (UTC)

Thanks for your input. If you can, could you review the FLC related to the show? MCMLXXXIX 12:58, 3 March 2017 (UTC)

@1989: sure, I'll do a full source review as soon as I can. I'm kind of desperate, but do you think you could do a prose review for the gameplay and reception sections for the Nights: Journey of Dreams FAC? It got an oppose the other day, but it would just benefit from more in-depth prose reviews—other than that it passes on everything else. Don't worry if you can't do it! Thanks.

4th GA Cup - The Final

WikiProject Good Articles's 2016 GA Cup - Final Hello, GA Cup competitors! Sunday, February 26 saw the end of Round 3. Shearonink finished in first with 616 points, which is more than the point totals for all the other competitors combined! In second place, Krishna Chaitanya Velaga earned an impressive 152 points, followed by Sturmvogel_66 in third with 111 points. Chris troutman and Kees08 each received a wild-card and were able to advance to the Final Round. There was a major error on the part of the judges, and initially, 8 users were advanced instead of 5. This has been corrected, and we sincerely apologize for this confusion. In Round 3, 71 reviews were completed! At the beginning of this GA Cup, the longest wait was over 7 months; at the end of Round 3, the longest wait is still holding steady at a little over 6 months, the same as for the previous round. By the end of all three Rounds, the total number of nominations increased slightly - this suggests that users are more willing to nominate, knowing that their articles will be reviewed. We hope to see all remaining users fighting it out in the Final so we can keep tackling the backlog. In the Final Round, the user with the highest score will be the winner. The Final has already started and will end on March 31st at 23:59:59 UTC. Information about Finals and the pools can be found here. Good luck and have fun! Cheers from Figureskatingfan, 3family6, Jaguar, and MrWooHoo. To subscribe or unsubscribe to future GA Cup newsletters, please add or remove your name to our mailing list. If you are a participant still competing, you will be on the mailing list no matter what as this is the easiest way to communicate between all participants.

Binsted

	Congratulations, it's a...
	...Wikipedia Good Article!! Shearonink (talk) 19:45, 13 March 2017 (UTC)

Thank you again! JAGUAR  20:45, 13 March 2017 (UTC)

You're welcome, it was a pleasure. Nice to see "small places" get their due. Shearonink (talk) 20:50, 13 March 2017 (UTC)

I have no idea what is up with Legobot...

Why did it send you a Fail notice for Binsted when I passed the article as a GA... Any ideas? 20:49, 13 March 2017 (UTC)

Don't worry about it. It happens often! Even if you do everything right the bot will occasionally send the nominator a "your GAN has failed" template. It's happened to me a dozen times. I had to delete the notification as I didn't want people to think it actually failed! JAGUAR  20:51, 13 March 2017 (UTC)

Nice to know it probably wasn't something I specifically had or hadn't done. In any case, I've now fixed it all up for the article's talk page. Cheers, Shearonink (talk) 21:04, 13 March 2017 (UTC)

Better source request for File:Wipeout 2048 gameplay.jpg

Thanks for your upload to Wikipedia:

You provided a source, but it is difficult for other users to examine the copyright status of the image because the source is incomplete. Please consider clarifying the exact source so that the copyright status may be checked more easily. It is best to specify the exact Web page where you found the image, rather than only giving the source domain or the URL of the image file itself. Please update the image description with a URL that will be more helpful to other users in determining the copyright status.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source in a complete manner. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link.

I hate to be too formal these days, so i'll keep it straight. Hope you would throw some comments here. Pavanjandhyala 10:45, 16 March 2017 (UTC)

Good to see you back! I wondered where you went. Hope everything is well. I'll leave some comments soon—been quite busy lately. JAGUAR  11:48, 16 March 2017 (UTC)

I am going to leave but not sooner. Three huge tasks to be finished which will take months. Please do make a visit to this, those three tasks and the constructive refreshments i take in the process (smaller GAs, FLs etc.). Pavanjandhyala 13:18, 16 March 2017 (UTC)

Wipeout 2048 copyedit on hold

Since you've resumed working on the article, I'll resume copyediting when you're done (if you still want a copyedit). All the best, Miniapolis 13:38, 17 March 2017 (UTC)

Thanks! I'll let you know when I'm done with the reception section! Just need to condense it and after that it should be good. JAGUAR  14:43, 17 March 2017 (UTC)

@Miniapolis: I've finished condensing the reception section and tried organising it so it reads like a more cohesive prose rather than a mish mash of critics' opinions. I'm going to nominate it for FA eventually, so any help with copyediting will be appreciated! JAGUAR  14:32, 18 March 2017 (UTC)

Congratulations on the GA. As soon as I finish working on my current article, I'll get back to it. All the best, Miniapolis 15:30, 18 March 2017 (UTC)

... and the copyedit's done. Good luck with FA and all the best, Miniapolis 00:19, 19 March 2017 (UTC)

Papua New Guinean language talk page

Hi Jaguar I appreciate the edits you made to the talk pages of Papuan languages back in December, however there were some unfortunate examples such as this this when using awb you added some templates that was rather redundant. Therefore I hope you do not mind where in some cases I will be removing the templates of Papua New Guinea where the Melanesia and PNG template is already present. If you object it is fine, please just respond here or leave a message on my talk page so we can work it out. Thanks Inter&anthro (talk) 02:18, 19 March 2017 (UTC)

Wipeout source and image review requests

I just removed the requests for the source and image reviews from Wikipedia talk:Featured article candidates/Image and source check requests; that template is used when a review has acquired three or more supports but is still missing a source or image review, or both. Quite a few FACs get a source or image review without having to request it, so limiting it only to the ones that just need those reviews means it acts like a high-priority template -- those ones all really need those reviews, because they're likely to be holding up promotion. If you see others adding requests before that point in their FAC, feel free to undo the addition, but leave them a note like this to explain what's going on. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 16:27, 29 March 2017 (UTC)

Thanks, and sorry for the mistake. I had no idea that a FAC needed three or more supports in order for the nominator to request a source/image review there. I wanted to get a small head start so to speak and decided to put it up there early, but wasn't aware of that. I'll keep that in mind and will remove any other requests that have no more than three supports. JAGUAR  17:19, 29 March 2017 (UTC)

No worries -- most nominators only find out about this through a note like this. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 17:31, 29 March 2017 (UTC)
