WikiCup 2014 June newsletter
After an extremely close race, Round 3 is over. 244 points secured a place in Round 4, which is comparable to previous years- 321 was required in 2013, while 243 points were needed in 2012. Pool C's 
Godot13 (submissions) was the round's highest scorer, mostly due to a 32 featured pictures, including both scans and photographs. Also from Pool C, 
Casliber (submissions) finished second overall, claiming three featured articles, including the high-importance Grus (constellation). Third place was Pool B's , whose contributions included featured articles Russian battleship Poltava (1894) and Russian battleship Peresvet. Pool C saw the highest number of participants advance, with six out of eight making it to the next round.
The round saw this year's first featured portal, with 
Sven Manguard (submissions) taking Portal:Literature to featured status. The round also saw the first good topic points, thanks to 
12george1 (submissions) and the 2013 Atlantic hurricane season. This means that all content types have been claimed this year. Other contributions of note this round include a featured topic on Maya Angelou's autobiographies from 
Figureskatingfan (submissions), a good article on the noted Czech footballer Tomáš Rosický from 
Cloudz679 (submissions) and a now-featured video game screenshot, freely released due to the efforts of Sven Manguard (submissions).
The judges would like to remind participants to update submission pages promptly. This means that content can be checked, and allows those following the competition (including those participating) to keep track of scores effectively. This round has seen discussion about various aspects of the WikiCup's rules and procedures. Those interested in the competition can be assured that formal discussions about how next year's competition will work will be opened shortly, and all are welcome to voice their views then. 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 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!

Extreme Rising
Hi, God of Title reigns. I have an issue. Do you know Extreme Rising? It's a small promotion. The champion, Stevie Richards lostthe title at ECWA event against Luke Hawx. The match was promoted as Extreme Rising title match, but Extreme Rising didn't recognized the title change. However, Hawx has the belt and he says he is the champion. At MCW event, Hawx defended the title againt Matt Hardy (and Hawx lost). The promoter said the match was for the MCW title, but if Hardy and Hawx wanted to include more titles, t's OK. Now... are Hawx and Hardy Extreme Rising champions? Several sources, like PWInsider, included the title change in their reports, but Extreme Rising (the promotion looks defunct) says Richards is the champion (also, richards says he love cats) --HHH Pedrigree (talk) 16:41, 21 July 2014 (UTC)
WikiCup 2014 August newsletter
The final of the 2014 WikiCup begins in a few short minutes! Our eight finalists are listed below, along with their placement in Round 4:
Godot13 (submissions), a WikiCup newcomer, finished top of Pool A and was the round's highest scorer. Godot is a featured picture specialist, claiming large numbers of points due to high-quality scans of historical documents, especially banknotes.
Casliber (submissions) is a WikiCup veteran, having been a finalist every year since 2010. In the semi-final, he was Pool B's highest scorer. Cas's points primarily come from articles on the natural sciences.
Czar (submissions) was Pool A's runner-up. Czar's points come mostly from content related to independent video games, including both articles and topics.
Adam Cuerden (submissions) was Pool B's runner-up. Another featured picture specialist, many of Adam's points come from the restoration of historical media. He has been a WikiCup finalist twice before.
Cwmhiraeth (submissions) won the WikiCup in 2012 and 2013, and enters this final as the first wildcard. She focuses on biology-related articles, and has worked on several high-importance articles.
12george1 (submissions) is the second wildcard. George's points come primarily from meteorology-related articles. This year and last year, George was the first person in the competition to score.
Sturmvogel 66 (submissions), the third wildcard, was the 2010 champion and a finalist last year. His writes mostly on military history, especially naval history.
Bloom6132 (submissions), the fourth and final wildcard, has participated in previous WikiCups, but not reached any finals. Bloom's points are mostly thanks to did you knows, featured lists and good articles related to sport and national symbols.
We say goodbye to this year's semi-finalists. 
Matty.007 (submissions), 
ThaddeusB (submissions), 
WikiRedactor (submissions), Figureskatingfan (submissions), 
Yellow Evan (submissions), 
Prism (submissions) and Cloudz679 (submissions) have all performed well to reach this stage of the competition, and we hope they will all be joining us again next year.
There are two upcoming competitions unrelated to the WikiCup which may be of interest to those who receive this newsletter. The Stub Contest will run through September, and revolves around expanding stub articles, especially high-importance or old stubs. In addition, a proposal has been made for a new competition, the GA Cup, which the organisers plan to run next year. This competition is based on the WikiCup and aims to reduce the good article review backlog.
There is now a thread for brainstorming on how next year's WikiCup competition should work. Please come along and share your thoughts- What works? What doesn't work? What needs changing? Signups for next year's competition will be open soon; we will be in touch. If, at this stage of the competition, you are keen to help the with the WikiCup, please do what you can to participate in review processes. Our finalists will find things much easier if the backlogs at good article candidates, featured article candidates, featured picture candidates and the rest are kept at a minimum. As ever, questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. Good luck!

GA review David Hume
I wonder if you would be interested in providing a second opinion on the GA review for David Hume. I am the nominator, and the reviewer and I have reached an impasse so that the article will either be failed or I shall remove my nomination. That would be a pity since it is an important topic.

WikiCup 2015 is just around the corner...
Hello everyone, and may we wish you all a happy holiday season. As you will probably already know, the 2015 WikiCup begins in the new year; there is still time to sign up. We have a few important announcements concerning the future of the WikiCup.
- We would like to announce that Josh (J Milburn) and Ed (The ed17), who have been WikiCup judges since 2009 and 2010 respectively, are stepping down. This decision has been made for a number of reasons, but the main one is time. Both Josh and Ed have found that, over the previous year, they have been unable to devote the time necessary to the WikiCup, and it is not likely that they will be able to do this in the near future. Furthermore, new people at the helm can only help to invigorate the WikiCup and keep it dynamic. Josh and Ed will still be around, and will likely be participating in the Cup this following year as competitors, which is where both started out.
- In a similar vein, we hope you will all join us in welcoming Jason (Sturmvogel 66) and Christine (Figureskatingfan), who are joining Brian (Miyagawa) to form the 2015 WikiCup judging team. Jason is a WikiCup veteran, having won in 2010 and finishing in fifth this year. Christine has participated in two WikiCups, reaching the semi-finals in both, and is responsible for the GA Cup, which she now co-runs.
- The discussions/polls concerning the next competition's rules will be closed soon, and rules changes will be made clear on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Scoring and talk pages. While it may be impossible to please everyone, the judges will make every effort to ensure that the new rules are both fair and in the best interests of the competition, which is, first and foremost, about improving Wikipedia.
If you have any questions or concerns, the judges can be reached on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, on their talk pages, or by email. We hope you will all join us in trying to make the 2015 WikiCup the most productive and enjoyable yet. You are receiving this message because you are listed on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Newsletter/Send.

Hi WillC, what do you mean by Also, the limit is there has to be 10 reigns on the title before it can be considered for splitting per discussions at FLC. - 10 by a single wrestler?

WikiCup 2015 March newsletter
.jpg)
That's it, the first round is done, sign-ups are closed and we're into round 2. 64 competitors made it into this round, and are now broken into eight groups of eight. The top two of each group will go through to round 3, and then the top scoring 16 "wildcards" across all groups. Round 1 saw some interesting work on some very important articles, with the round leader 
Freikorp (submissions) owing most of his 622 points scored to a Featured Article on the 2001 film Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within which qualified for a times-two multiplier. This is a higher score than in previous years, as Godot13 (submissions) had 500 points in 2014 at the end of round 1, and our very own judge, 
Sturmvogel_66 (submissions) led round 1 with 601 points in 2013.
In addition to Freikorp's work, some other important articles and pictures were improved during round one, here's a snapshot of a few of them:
- Cwmhiraeth (submissions) took Bumblebee, a level-4 vital article, to Good Article;
- AHeneen (submissions) worked-up the Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 article, also to Good Article status;
Rodw (submissions) developed an extremely timely article to Good Article, taking Magna Carta there some 800 years after it was first sealed;- And last but not least, Godot13 (submissions) (FP bonus points) worked up a number of Featured Pictures during round 1, including the 1948 one Deutsche Mark (pictured right), receiving the maximum bonus due to the number of Wikis that the related article appears in.
You may also wish to know that The Core Contest is running through the month of March. Head there for further details - they even have actual prizes!
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. Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. Good luck!

WikiCup 2015 May newsletter
The Herald (submissions) during the second round.The second round one has all wrapped up, and round three has now begun! Congratulations to the 34 contestants who have made it through, but well done and thank you to all contestants who took part in our second round. Leading the way overall was 
Cas Liber (submissions) in Group B with a total of 777 points for a variety of contributions including Good Articles on Corona Borealis and Microscopium - both of which received the maximum bonus.
Special credit must be given to a number of high importance articles improved during the second round.
Coemgenus (submissions) was one of several users who worked on improving Ulysses S. Grant. Remember, you do not need to work on an article on your own - as long as each person has completed significant work on the article during 2015, multiple competitors can claim the same article.- Cwmhiraeth (submissions) took Dragonfly to Good Article for a 3x bonus - and if that wasn't enough, they also took Damselfly there as well for a 2x bonus.
LeftAire (submissions) worked up Alexander Hamilton to Good Article for the maximum bonus. Hamilton was one of the founding fathers of the United States and is a level 4 vital article.
The points varied across groups, with the lowest score required to gain automatic qualification was 68 in Group A - meanwhile the second place score in Group H was 404, which would have been high enough to win all but one of the other Groups! As well as the top two of each group automatically going through to the third round, a minimum score of 55 was required for a wildcard competitor to go through. We had a three-way tie at 55 points and all three have qualified for the next round, in the spirit of fairness. The third round ends on June 28, with the top two in each group progressing automatically while the remaining 16 highest scorers across all four groups go through as wildcards. Good luck to all competitors for the third round! Figureskatingfan (talk · contribs · email), Miyagawa (talk · contribs · email) and Sturmvogel 66 (talk · contribs · email) 16:51, 4 May 2015 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited List of WCW World Television Champions, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Rick Williams and Uncensored. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Just a heads up, I will revert any changes back to U.S. measurements per WP:METRIC. リボン・サルミネン (Ribbon Salminen) (LOLTNA) 15:15, 30 August 2015 (UTC)
- "The choice of primary units depends on the circumstances, and should respect the principle of "strong national ties". Trying to spin this article in a way that it's more U.S. related than Japan is ridiculous. I will revert this change 100%. リボン・サルミネン (Ribbon Salminen) (LOLTNA) 15:22, 30 August 2015 (UTC)
- I guess we're edit warring then. I'd like to see any admin support a non-metric system on an article about a Japanese subject. リボン・サルミネン (Ribbon Salminen) (LOLTNA) 15:28, 30 August 2015 (UTC)
- I don't understand what the big fucking deal is. Even now in its current form, pounds are right there in brackets next to kilograms for all Americans to see. The article has far stronger ties to Japan, where, as in every other country outside the U.S. (Canada and Britain [English-speaking countries] included), metric system is the norm. Even the damn source used says kilograms. リボン・サルミネン (Ribbon Salminen) (LOLTNA) 15:56, 30 August 2015 (UTC)

WikiCup 2015 September newsletter
The finals for the 2015 Wikicup has now begun! Congrats to the 8 contestants who have survived to the finals, and well done and thanks to everyone who took part in rounds 3 and 4.
In round 3, we had a three-way tie for qualification among the wildcard contestants, so we had 34 competitors. The leader was by far Casliber (submissions) in Group B, who earned 1496 points. Although 913 of these points were bonus points, he submitted 15 articles in the DYK category. Second place overall was 
Coemgenus (submissions) at 864 points, who although submitted just 2 FAs for 400 points, earned double that amount for those articles in bonus points. Everyone who moved forward to Round 4 earned at least 100 points.
The scores required to move onto the semifinals were impressive; the lowest scorer to move onto the finals was 407, making this year's Wikicup as competitive as it's always been. Our finalists, ordered by round 4 score, are:
Cas Liber (submissions), who is competing in his sixth consecutive Wikicup final, again finished the round in first place, with an impressive 1666 points in Pool B. Casliber writes about the natural sciences, including ornithology, botany and astronomy. A large bulk of his points this round were bonus points.- Godot13 (submissions) (FP bonus points), second place both in Pool B and overall, earned the bulk of his points with FPs, mostly depicting currency.
- Cwmhiraeth (submissions), first in Pool A, came in third. His specialty is natural science articles; in Round 4, he mostly submitted articles about insects and botany. Five out of the six of the GAs he submitted were level-4 vital articles.
- Harrias (submissions), second in Pool A, took fourth overall. He tends to focus on articles about cricket and military history, specifically the 1640s First English Civil War.
- West Virginian (submissions), from Pool A, was our highest-scoring wildcard. West Virginia tends to focus on articles about the history of (what for it!) the U.S. state of West Virginia.
- Rodw (submissions), from Pool A, likes to work on articles about British geography and places. Most of his points this round were earned from two impressive accomplishments: a GT about Scheduled monuments in Somerset and a FT about English Heritage properties in Somerset.
- Rationalobserver (submissions), from Pool B, came in seventh overall. RO earned the majority of her points from GARs and PRs, many of which were earned in the final hours of the round.
Calvin999 (submissions), also from Pool B, who was competing with RO for the final two spots in the final hours, takes the race for most GARs and PRs—48.
The intense competition between RO and Calvin999 will continue into the finals. They're both eligible for the Newcomers Trophy, given for the first time in the Wikicup; whoever makes the most points will win it.
Good luck to the finalists; the judges are sure that the competition will be fierce!

AAA Mega Championship
Long time no talk. Sure I would be down with that, the list is probably the one that needs the least work to get FL ready so we can start on that one. MPJ-US 02:54, 7 September 2015 (UTC)
- That's right he did - they called it something else I think too in TNA just to really be annoying ;-) This one should be easier than the NWA World and NWA Tag. I will check it over for sources etc. and see what pops up. MPJ-US 03:02, 7 September 2015 (UTC)
- If the table sorts correctly then I have not had a problem explaining that, the sort templates make it harder for less experienced editors to edit the articles. I try to eliminate them unless it's actually needed. Just based on what I've seen that's never been brought up if the sorting is okay. MPJ-US 03:58, 7 September 2015 (UTC)
How would you feel about folding the list into the main article and make THAT the FLC? I don't think there is a point in splitting them up, we can still do the intro and list the tournament after the list as well. That's never been an issue in the NWA, CMLL or Mexican National lists I have taken to FL status. Bonus, you get to the Featured topic with one less article. MPJ-US 04:49, 7 September 2015 (UTC)
Same suggestion List of NWA World Tag Team Champions => NWA World Tag Team Championship, another pointless content fork. the singles one is probably the only one that makes sense as there is enough to support a standalone article as well. there was a movement to split them into article & list - but not enough content to really support both. Seems that movement is now gone, or common sense prevailed or whatever, but if you're doing tag I would recommend combining that one too. MPJ-US 04:54, 7 September 2015 (UTC)
I don't remember if I was the one to split the article way back, but i think it is better merged. I saw you made some edits to "avoid redirects", that is actually contrary to guidelines in WP:NOTBROKEN, advocatin redirects over more complicated piped links. I was not personally aware of this until recently myself. Mesisas and Alberto's links should be simplified. MPJ-US 13:58, 7 September 2015 (UTC)
I think the main source I need to find is for its TNA name, hopefully I can a reliable o me pretty easily. MPJ-US 16:31, 7 September 2015 (UTC)
Definitely getting there, I think we have sources and tables in place, mainly copyediting the lead. Not sure it qualifies for DYK since we combined article instead of expanded? I have not been doing DYK on anything other than New articles recently so I am not sure. MPJ-US 21:58, 7 September 2015 (UTC)
- of defenses is listed for NJPW and Rob because they count them and promote that right? I would say WAS is the same way then. MPJ-US 11:18, 8 September 2015 (UTC)
Dang autocorrect! So i tried to say that the championship tables list defenses if the company tracks/promotes that as important. Such as RoH and NJPW, AAA clearly counts those too since they list them for active titles. So yes should be in table IMO. MPJ-US *
I woould not get to it until tonight or maybe tomorrow. MPJ-US 20:04, 8 September 2015 (UTC)
I just realized that part of the table format is inconsistent with such FL articles as List of WWE Intercontinental Champions or NWA World Light Heavyweight Championship or indeed the WP:PW Manual of Style for championship lists - Wikipedia:WikiProject Professional wrestling/Style guide. And it looks like all the TNA FLs have the same layout issues. It should be bold in the first column and the vacated reigns have a darker grey background. MPJ-US 03:01, 10 September 2015 (UTC)
I have a question, I just realized you said Jarrett defended the AAA title in TNA so you had to include it (I assume to get a "good topic") - I have not seen anything to indicate that he defended it in TNA. Who said he had actually defended it?? And are the NWA World and Tag the last two you'd need for the topic? MPJ-US 04:00, 11 September 2015 (UTC)
Nudge - FLC
It's been a week since you said you'd be willing to review Leo Carrillo on stage and screen. I sure could use some help. It's dropping to the bottom of the FLC list fast. — Maile (talk) 13:18, 12 September 2015 (UTC)
Reporting vandals
I have some comments re your post on Cyphoidbomb's talk page here.
I'm not familiar with the topic, but it seems to me that LifeTimes5678's edits are indeed pure vandalism. All the ones I checked were unsourced, unexplained, substantial changes to existing information. An administrator checking would hopefully see that those are the only kind of edits made, that they're to established content, that they're major "corrections" with no explanation, and that there are a lot of them.
To report, go to WP:AIV and make an edit at the bottom of the "User Reported" section. You can follow the "example" of the previous edit (assuming there is one). It is recommended to keep comments very brief. An investigating admin will certainly look at the vandal's talk page and contributions in any case. All that's needed is to mention what they should look for, not a detailed outline of what they will see. A common comment from me is "persistent vandalism after warnings". In this case, you might add "arbitrary changes to established content, names, times, match results etc." An admin not familiar with the topic might not see the changes as obvious vandalism (like "Joey sucks!").
Be sure to use "Show Preview" before saving. The WP:AIV page is busy, the admins are volunteers with limited time, and if it's not done right, it's a lot easier for them to say "declined, next". Let me know if you would like more help. Cheers. Willondon (talk) 21:15, 12 September 2015 (UTC)

Sourcing filmographies
Hi WillC, with your experience of writing Josh Hutcherson, can I check what are acceptable sources for Dario Cueto's filmography? Is Rotten Tomatoes of them? Or Hollywood.com? Or Amazon? Or MovieYoda and Metacritic? starship.paint ~ KO 03:59, 24 September 2015 (UTC)
WWE and WWE NXT
I've noticed there hasn't been anybody that countered your last argument, and nobody has had a counter argument for what I've said about the WWE not recognizing NXT titles as WWE titles, so I guess my question is, what now? I know some of the people that want to list the titles together are open to follow consensus (whichever one it may be). Do we start listing them seperatly (as they originally were)? Do we try to find a happy medium? Thanks for your time, and it would be awesome to hear back from you. PRwrestlinganalyst (talk) 03:05, 25 September 2015 (UTC)
- That's what I've been trying to do, but the user Vjmlhds has been reverting my edits and listing them together (although he has no good counter argument for you or me), and even listing the NXT title over the WWE titles (example being Seth Rollins and Kevin Owens). I've been clear that I'd follow consensus, but I'm also firm on my position that we should list them seperatly, but he doesn't seem to care about consensus, he just wants the article to look the way he wants, and reverts a lot of editor's edits as if he had ownership over them. Is there any way we could list the titles seperatly (as it should be) without getting him to rv us? Thanks for your time. PRwrestlinganalyst (talk) 14:26, 25 September 2015 (UTC)

Help with DYK
Hi Wrestlinglover,
I hope you don't mind me leaving you a message. I'm couldn't find who is in charge of WP:PW so I'm not sure who to contact about this. I'm interested in submitting Lutte Internationale as a DYK article but I don't really understand the process. Would it be possible to postpone the 7-day limit for submissions? The footage from its television programming is in the public domain according to Quebec wrestling historian Patric Laprade. [1] I'd like to try finding some screenshots online to show with the hook but I'm not sure how long that will take.
Also is there someone I should talk to about uploading public domain screenshots? I submitted the english-language logo to WP:IFU under a non-free license but I think it should be in the public domain as well.
Thanks for your time. 72.74.207.164 (talk) 20:17, 1 November 2015 (UTC)
