FS placement in an article
I am currently topic banned at WP:FS. As a FS director, could you please copy this discussion to WT:FSC on my behalf. I have been having problems with Moni3 (talk · contribs) over the Amazing Grace article. She was the WP:FA author and I believe she has WP:OWN issues with regard to the article.
In April, I tried to add File:Amazing Grace (USAFB strings).ogg, File:Amazing Grace (USAFB brass).ogg, and File:Amazing Grace (USAFB jazz vocal).ogg. She has insisted that they do not belong because the versions presented are not discussed in the text. After an extremely volatile disucssion in which the FA director Raul654 (talk · contribs) expressed a concurring opinion and FA delegate SandyGeorgia (talk · contribs) was in opposition, Moni consented to including the jazz version.
By June, I reminded her that I had previously suggested a good location for the two instrumental versions. Recall that at that time in June 44 of my last 56 nominated files had been promoted (79%). Meanwhile, the year to date FSC pass rate was 133/178=75%. So I had learned how to be a above average FSC contributor and learned what types of files the audiophiles considered valuable to wikipedia. I tried to explain to Moni, in a discussion on her talk page that I now understood at a basic level what the proper consideration were for sound file contributions and felt that the two instrumental versions would be useful in the section discussing the melody.
Do the Featured sound people believe that the newly-promoted File:Amazing Grace (USAFB strings).ogg and File:Amazing Grace (USAFB brass).ogg should be included in the Amazing Grace article (probably in the section discussing the melody since they are instrumental versions)?--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 12:58, 31 July 2011 (UTC)
- Thanks. You should probably include the first paragraph too for context. The 2nd paragraph refers back to the later sentences in the first. I guess if you started with "I have been having" then the message might make sense.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 23:44, 31 July 2011 (UTC)
- Ah,
Done again. If you need anything else, ask me. —James (Talk • Contribs) • 10:09am • 00:09, 1 August 2011 (UTC)
- Thanks.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 00:51, 1 August 2011 (UTC)
- Ah,
WikiCup 2011 July newsletter
We are half way through the penultimate round of this year's WikiCup; there is less than a month to go before we have our final 8. Our pool leaders are 
Adabow (submissions) (Pool A, 189 points) and 
PresN (submissions) (Pool B, 165 points). The number of points required to reach the next round is not clear at this time; there are some users who still do not have any recorded points. Please remember to update your submissions' pages promptly. In addition, congratulations to PresN, who scored the first featured topic points in the competition for his work on Thatgamecompany related articles. Most points this round generally have, so far, come from good articles, with only one featured article (White-bellied Sea Eagle, from 
Casliber (submissions)) and two featured lists (Hugo Award for Best Graphic Story, from PresN and Grammy Award for Best Native American Music Album, from 
Another Believer (submissions)). Points for Did You Know and good article reviews round out the scoring. No points have been awarded for In the News, good topics or featured pictures this round, and no points for featured sounds or portals have been awarded in the entire competition. On an unrelated note, preparation will be beginning soon for next year's WikiCup- watch this space!
There is little else to be said beyond the usual. Please list anything you need reviewing on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews, so others following the WikiCup can help, and please do help if you can by providing reviews for the articles listed there. However, please remember to continue to offer reviews generally at GAC, FAC and all the other pages that require them to prevent any backlogs which could otherwise be caused by the Cup- points are, of course, offered for reviews at GAC. Two final notes: Firstly, please remember to state your participation in the WikiCup when nominating articles at FAC. Finally, some WikiCup-related statistics can be seen here and here. As ever, 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 receiving or stop receiving this newsletter, please feel free to add or remove yourself from Wikipedia:WikiCup/Newsletter/Send. J Milburn and The ed17 11:29, 1 August 2011 (UTC)

Extramarital affair
Yes, one extramarital affair of Mr. V.K. with a woman has been admitted. So what? This is no homosexuality, which is now being attributed to him in Czech tabloids and even on Czech Wikipedia. I am sad about the methods how it is being done. You probably don´t know really much about Czech politics, although you have written something about Mr. Bém. Or do you? Mr. Bém is no more Mayor of Prague. OK, you have not been involved personally in this matter of mine, and there is no real dispute between Fastily and me.

WikiCup 2011 July newsletter
The finals are upon us; we're down to the last few. One of the eight remaining contestants will be this year's WikiCup champion! 150 was the score needed to progress to the final; just under double the 76 required to reach round 4, and more than triple the 41 required to reach round 3. Our eight finalists are:
Casliber (submissions), Pool A's winner. Casliber has the highest total score in the competition, with 1528, the bulk of which is made up of 8 featured articles. He has the highest number of total featured articles (8, 1 of which was eligible for double points) and total did you knows (72) of any finalist. Casliber writes mostly on biology, including ornithology, botany and mycology.
PresN (submissions), Pool B's winner and the highest scorer this round. PresN is the only finalist who has scored featured topic points, and he has gathered an impressive 330, but most of his points come from his 4 featured articles, one of which scored double. PresN writes mostly on video games and the Hugo Awards.
Hurricanehink (submissions), Pool A's runner-up. Hurricanehink's points are mostly from his 30 good articles, more than any other finalist, and he is also the only finalist to score good topic points. Hurricanehink, as his name suggests, writes mostly on meteorology.
Wizardman (submissions), Pool B's runner-up. Wizardman has completed 86 good article reviews, more than any other finalist, but most of his points come from his 2 featured articles. Wizardman writes mostly on American sport, especially baseball.
Miyagawa (submissions), the "fastest loser" (Pool A). Miyagawa has written 3 featured lists, one of which was awarded double points, more than any other finalist, but he was awarded points mostly for his 68 did you knows. Miyagawa writes on a variety of topics, including dogs, military history and sport.
Resolute (submissions), the second "fastest loser" (Pool B). Most of Resolute's points come from his 9 good articles. He writes mostly on Canadian topics, including ice hockey.
Yellow Evan (submissions), who was joint third "fastest loser" (Pool A). Most of Evan's points come from his 10 good articles, and he writes mostly on meteorology.
Sp33dyphil (submissions), who was joint third "fastest loser" (Pool B). Most of Phil's points come from his 9 good articles, 4 of which (more than any other finalist) were eligible for double points. He writes mostly on aeronautics.
We say goodbye to our seven other semi-finalists, Another Believer (submissions), 
Piotrus (submissions), 
Grandiose (submissions), 
Stone (submissions), 
Eisfbnore (submissions), 
Canada Hky (submissions) and 
MuZemike (submissions). Everyone still in the competition at this stage has done fantastically well, and contributed greatly to Wikipedia. We're on the home straight now, and we will know our winner in two months.
In other news, preparations for next year's competition have begun with a brainstorming thread. Please, feel free to drop by and share any thoughts you have about how the competition should work next year. Sign ups are not yet open, but will be opened in due course. Watch this space. Further, there has been a discussion about the rule whereby those in the WikiCup must delcare their participation when nominating articles at featured article candidates. This has resulted in a bot being created by new featured article delegate Ucucha (talk · contribs). The bot will leave a message on FAC pages if the nominator is a participant in the WikiCup.
A reminder of the rules: any points scored after August 29 may be claimed for the final round, and please remember to update submission pages promptly. If you are concerned that your nomination, be it at good article candidates, a featured process or anywhere else, will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews. However, please remember to continue to offer reviews at GAC, FAC and all the other pages that require them to prevent any backlogs which could otherwise be caused by the Cup.
