Contest of the month

We currently have a remarkable lack of Wikipedia:Wikipedia-Books. Right now, :Category:Wikipedia books on Christianity contains only 12 books. We certainly could have at least one book on each major grouping within Christianity. One of the challenges for this month, then, is working to put together books on relevant topics. For this month, one contest is for editors to assemble the basic Wikipedia books for each of the main topics of the extant related projects. When finished, they should their creation of the books at the main Christianity noticeboard, and at the end of the month the project will award barnstars to those who have made a significant efforts in developing this underdeveloped content.

Also this month, we are going to have have a challenge to create and improve some of our more important missing or low-quality articles. As biographies are often a bit easier, this month we are choosing two biographies: Karl Behm, which has yet to be started, and the currently Stub-class article Nerses IV the Gracious. A barnstar will be awarded to any editor who can get these articles up to DYK quality level and ultimately selected for the DYK section of the main page.

Calendar

Thie coming month (mid-August through mid-September) includes feasts dedicated to the honor of Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary, Bartholomew the Apostle, Nativity of Mary, and the Exaltation of the Cross.

Featured content and GA report

Since the last report, William de Chesney (sheriff), Knights of Columbus, and Angelus Silesius were promoted to GA level.

Our thanks and congratulations to all those involved.

Wikinews is our sister site for developing news stories. Several events relating to Christianity, like the installation of bishops for instance, do not necessarily merit extensive coverage in wikipedia encyclopedic articles, but can and easily could be covered at greater length in a news article format. Given the number of significant news events that relate to religion, including claims of miracles, assignment of bishops and other religious leaders, church conferences, and other events, this site provides an excellent opportunity to provide in-depth coverage of current events at greater length than wikipedia.

One of our newer editors, User:David_FLXD, has recently gone through much of our content related to Methodism and assessed it. We are very grateful for his efforts, and that of all the editors who have had a role in developing that content. We have every reason to believe that this will make it significantly easier for the Methodism work group to create and develop content relevant to Methodism. To help that along, we certainly encourage everyone to do what they can to help David and the other Methodism editors to bring the content relevant to their tradition to the highest possible level of quality.

I believe

... in the Holy Trinity, the sacraments of Baptism and Holy Communion, the Arminian conception of free will through God's prevenient grace, and the regular renewal of the individual's covenant with God. I am a Methodist.

As some of you may have seen, the Simple English Wikipedia has been experiencing some difficulties lately. This particular entity could be of great value to several individuals who are trying to learn English. As some of you who do speak foreign languages know, one of the most easily available, and, in general, useful learning aids for people is a text they know already, which allows them to focus on the specific words of the new language. Various recorded readings and translations of the Bible are among the best examples of this. Any efforts to try to enhance this vital means of informing a large segment of our readership is more than welcome. People interested in helping develop it are encouraged to leave a note regarding their specific articles of interest at the Christianity noticeboard. It would be wonderful if we could report some significant contributions to this sister site next month. And, of course, if we do have something to report, those involved would receive our greatest thanks.

WikiProject Calvinism is one of our more important subprojects. It is specifically devoted to developing content relating to the Calvinist tradition, and the primary point for development of content relating to the Pilgrims, Presbyterians, Reformed churches, Congregational church, Reformed Baptists, and Low church. We definitely encourage everyone to do what they can to help this project develop the content relating to this extremely important Christian tradition.

I believe

... that human nature is insufficient for salvation, and the grace of God is required to do so. I believe that God has preordained who will and will not achieve salvation. I believe that Jesus's atonement was sufficient for the purposes for which it was done. I believe that God's grace is of such power that it can overcome any person's resistance. I believe that those whom God has chosen for salvation will, by the undeniable power of God, persevere in God's grace. I am a Calvinist.

WikiProject Holidays/Christmas task force is the group whose purpose is to help develop the content related to the Christmas season, including Advent, New Year's, and related holidays. As many of us know, in several parts of the world, including the United States, the Christmas season is not only the time of one of the greatest holidays of the Christian liturgical year, but it is also the "make or break" time for many retailers, whose profitability for the year often depends on their success in this time of the giving of sometimes significantly expensive gifts. In other parts of the world, the winter solstice period and sometimes specifically Christmas itself means something that might surprise many Christians, like the Christmas in Japan, where Christmas is one of the times hotels receive the greatest number of, often unmarried, couples staying there for the night. The solstice season is also significant to several other religions. Many of these days are also legal holidays in several places. In Belarus, for instance, both the Western and Eastern Christmas commemorations are legal holidays. We would certainly welcome the members of this project to donate some of their time and talents in the upcoming months to improving this significant content.

The core topics work group is the group whose specific purpose is to help identify and develop those articles which are of greatest importance to an overall understanding of the broad subject of Christianity, based on what is included in the core topics list. These articles include some of specific churches and individuals, history, philosophical and theological matters, and more. We have had some recent discussion regarding which articles should be included in this list, and it probably makes sense to revisit the selections, and try to figure out how best to work to make them high quality articles. Discussion is beginning at WT:X regarding these matters, and all input is welcome.

From the Editor

File:ბუმბული.pngSince its formation in 2006, WikiProject Christianity has come a long way. A significant number of new articles have appeared on a wide range of topics, and the quality of some key articles has seen dramatic improvement. Yet, by the very nature of the open, crowd-sourced development environment in which we operate, as the number of pages in the project has increased at times our attention has been naturally diluted. We should of course strive for quality everywhere, but we should remember that this newsletter is called Ichthus.

Starting this month we will start a "Focus on" series, where we will try to "bring Jesus back" and focus on him. For five consecutive issues we will focus on one aspect of the study of Jesus. The goal of this series is to inform our members of what the project contains and highlight those articles which have reached quality and stability.

From this month until November we will focus on the historical Jesus, a topic which has been the subject of much discussion on article talk pages, as well as the general media. This is an important topic, and we have a good set of well referenced articles on that now. Then, starting in December we will focus on Christ, and the spiritual and theological elements that the title entails. Following that the review of the life and ministry of Jesus in the New Testament, his miracles, and parables will take place. And each month the "Bookshelf" will mention a book that fits the theme of the month.

We hope you will enjoy this journey as we present a new aspect of Jesus each month. And given that as the number of project pages increases, the ratio of those watching the pages declines, we hope that more of you will watch some of these central pages that help define this project.

The current building of All Saints' Church, Winthorpe in Nottinghamshire, England which was completed in 1888, is at least the third version of the church, which dates back to at least the early 13th century.

THE

HISTORICAL JESUS

{{clear|left}}

Did Jesus exist? Did he walk the streets of Jerusalem? The Historicity of Jesus article answers these questions with a firm affirmative. Historicity does not discuss if Jesus walked on water, but if he walked at all. The issue was the subject of scholarly debate before the end of last century, but the academic debate is almost over now. As the article discusses, virtually all academic opposition to the existence of Jesus has evaporated away now and scholars see it as a concluded issue. The discussion is now just among mostly self-published non-academics.

In 2011 John Dickson tweeted that if anyone finds a professor of history who denies that Jesus lived,[http://www.abc.net.au/religion/articles/2012/12/24/3660194.htm he would eat a page] of his Bible (Matthew 1 he said). Dickson's Bible is still safe.

The article discusses the ancient sources that relate to Jesus and how they fit together to establish that he existed. The evidence for Jesus is not just based on the Christian gospels, but by inter-relating them with non-Christian sources, and the fact that they all "fit together". Moreover, the existence of Jesus is not supported just by Christian scholars and in recent years the detailed knowledge of Jewish scholars and their discoveries (e.g. Shlomo Pines' discovery of the Syriac Josephus) has proven highly beneficial. We encourage you to read and follow the article, for the existence of Jesus is central to the existence of Christianity.

Just a few years after its publication, Van Voorst's book has become the standard comprehensive text for the discussion of ancient sources that relate to Jesus and his historicity. This detailed yet really readable book has received wide ranging endorsements - Blomberg and Harris separately referring to it as the most comprehensive treatment of the subject.

WikiCup 2019 March newsletter

And so ends the first round of the competition. Everyone with a positive score moves on to Round 2. With 56 contestants qualifying, each group in Round 2 contains seven contestants, with the two leaders from each group due to qualify for Round 3 as well as the top sixteen remaining contestants.

Our top scorers in Round 1 were:

  • {{flagicon|USA}} L293D, a WikiCup newcomer, led the field with ten good articles on submarines for a total of 357 points.
  • 25px {{u|Adam Cuerden}}, a WikiCup veteran, came next with 274 points, mostly from eight featured pictures, restorations of artwork.
  • {{flagicon|Denmark}} MPJ-DK, a wrestling enthusiast, was in third place with 263 points, garnered from a featured list, five good articles, two DYKs and four GARs.
  • {{flagicon|USA}} Usernameunique came next at 243, with a featured article and a good article, both on ancient helmets.
  • 25px Squeamish Ossifrage was in joint fifth place with 224 points, mostly garnered from bringing the 1937 Fox vault fire to featured article status.
  • {{flagicon|Ohio}} Ed! was also on 224, with an amazing number of good article reviews (56 actually).

These contestants, like all the others, now have to start scoring points again from scratch. Between them, contestants completed reviews on 143 good articles, one hundred more than the number of good articles they claimed for, thus making a substantial dent in the review backlog. Well done all!

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. 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 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!

Article Statistics

Table reflects values at 8:00 PM Eastern on July 30.
Monthly goal: Find the backstory. All too often, pages about drivers, teams or tracks have only content about NASCAR's top three national series. To improve article quality, information about other series or events that those drivers, teams and tracks are involved in should be added, backed up by reliable sources.

    WikiCup 2020 September newsletter

    The fourth round of the competition has finished, with 865 points being required to qualify for the final round, nearly twice as many points as last year. It was a hotly competitive round with two contestants with 598 and 605 points being eliminated, and all but two of the contestants who reached the final round having achieved an FA during the round. The highest scorers were

    • File:Free Hong Kong flag.svg Bloom6132, with 1478 points gained mainly from 5 featured lists, 12 DYKs and 63 in the news items;
    • {{flagicon|Indonesia}}HaEr48 with 1318 points gained mainly from 2 featured articles, 5 good articles and 8 DYKs;
    • {{flagicon|ENG}} Lee Vilenski with 1201 points mainly gained from 2 featured articles and 10 good articles.

    Between them, contestants achieved 14 featured articles, 14 featured lists, 2 featured pictures, 87 good articles, 90 DYK entries, 75 ITN entries, 95 featured article candidate reviews and 81 good article reviews. Congratulations to all who participated! It was a generally high-scoring and productive round and I think we can expect a highly competitive finish to the competition.

    Remember that any content promoted after the end of round 4 but before the start of round 5 can be claimed in round 5. Remember too that you must claim your points within 10 days of "earning" them. If you are concerned that your nomination will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews. It would be helpful if this list could be cleared of any items no longer relevant. If you want to help out with the WikiCup, please do your bit to keep down the review backlogs! Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email.

    Monthly goal: Focus on the sources. In the thick of Silly Season, it is easy for random people to make a website, perpetuate a rumor, and have that be picked up here. Two sites that have proven to be big on rumors before, and sometimes eating it in a big way, are Beyond the Flag and TobyChristie.com. Please use other sources, such as NASCAR.com, Jayski.com, or team/driver releases as citations in articles. Additionally, there has been a decline in the quality of the new work being generated by the project. New content, related to silly season or not, should always be reliably sourced so we can avoid the ugly {{refimprove}} tags at the top of articles.

    WikiCup 2020 November newsletter

    The 2020 WikiCup has come to an end, with the final round going down to the wire. Our new Champion is {{Wikipedia:WikiCup/Participant11|Lee Vilenski}}, the runner-up last year, who was closely followed by {{Wikipedia:WikiCup/Participant11|Gog the Mild}}. In the final round, Lee achieved 4 FAs and 30 GAs, mostly on cue sport topics, while Gog achieved 3 FAs and 15 GAs, mostly on important battles and wars, which earned him a high number of bonus points. {{Wikipedia:WikiCup/Participant11|The Rambling Man}} was in third place with 4 FAs and 8 GAs on football topics, with {{Wikipedia:WikiCup/Participant11|Epicgenius}} close behind with 19 GAs and 16 DYK's, his interest being the buildings of New York.

    The other finalists were {{Wikipedia:WikiCup/Participant11|Hog Farm}}, {{Wikipedia:WikiCup/Participant11|HaEr48}}, {{Wikipedia:WikiCup/Participant11|Harrias}} and {{Wikipedia:WikiCup/Participant11|Bloom6132}}. The final round was very productive, and besides 15 FAs, contestants achieved 75 FAC reviews, 88 GAs and 108 GAN reviews. Altogether, Wikipedia has benefited greatly from the activities of WikiCup competitors all through the contest. Well done everyone!

    All those who reached the final will receive awards and the following special awards will be made, based on high performance in particular areas of content creation. So that the finalists do not have an undue advantage, these prizes are awarded to the competitor who scored the highest in any particular field in a single round, or in the event of a tie, to the overall leader in this field.

    • {{Wikipedia:WikiCup/Participant11|Gog the Mild}} wins the featured article prize, for a total of 14 FAs during the course of the competition.
    • {{Wikipedia:WikiCup/Participant11|Bloom6132}} win the featured list prize, for 5 FLs in round 4.
    • {{Wikipedia:WikiCup/Participant11|Rhododendrites}} wins the featured picture prize, for 3 FPs in round 3 and 5 overall.
    • {{Wikipedia:WikiCup/Participant11|Lee Vilenski}} wins the featured article reviewer prize, for 23 FAC reviews in round 5.
    • {{Wikipedia:WikiCup/Participant11|Epicgenius}} wins the good article prize, for 45 GAs in round 2 and 113 overall.
    • {{Wikipedia:WikiCup/Participant11|MPJ-DK}} wins the topic prize, for 33 articles in good topics in round 2.
    • {{Wikipedia:WikiCup/Participant11|The Rambling Man}} wins the good article reviewer prize, for 100 good article reviews in round 2.
    • {{Wikipedia:WikiCup/Participant11|Epicgenius}} wins the DYK prize, for 22 Did you know articles in round 4 and 94 overall.
    • {{Wikipedia:WikiCup/Participant11|Bloom6132}} wins the ITN prize, for 63 In the news articles in round 4 and 136 overall.

    Next year's competition will begin on 1 January. You are invited to sign up to participate; the WikiCup is open to all Wikipedians, both novices and experienced editors, and we hope to see you all in the 2021 competition. Until then, it only remains to once again congratulate our worthy winners, and thank all participants for their involvement!

    WikiCup 2021 March newsletter

    Round 1 of the competition has finished; it was a high-scoring round with 21 contestants scoring more than 100 points. Everyone with a positive score moves on to Round 2, with 55 contestants qualifying. You will need to finish among the top thirty-two contestants in Round 2 if you are to qualify for Round 3. Our top scorers in Round 1 were:

    • {{flagicon|New York (state)}} Epicgenius led the field with a featured article, nine good articles and an assortment of other submissions, specialising on buildings and locations in New York, for a total of 945 points.
    • {{flagicon|Republic of Venice|wartime}} Bloom6132 was close behind with 896 points, largely gained from 71 "In the news" items, mostly recent deaths.
    • {{flagicon|Scotland}} ImaginesTigers, who has been editing Wikipedia for less than a year, was in third place with 711 points, much helped by bringing League of Legends to featured article status, exemplifying how bonus points can boost a contestant's score.
    • {{flagicon|Rwanda}} Amakuru came next with 708 points, Kigali being another featured article that scored maximum bonus points.
    • 22px Ktin, new to the WikiCup, was in fifth place with 523 points, garnered from 15 DYKs and 34 "In the news" items.
    • {{flagicon|Botswana}} The Rambling Man scored 511 points, many from featured article candidate reviews and from football related DYKs.
    • 22px Gog the Mild, last year's runner-up, came next with 498 points, from a featured article and numerous featured article candidate reviews.
    • 22px Hog Farm, at 452, scored for a featured article, four good articles and a number of reviews.
    • {{flagicon|United States}} Le Panini, another newcomer to the WikiCup, scored 438 for a featured article and three good articles.
    • {{flagicon|England}} Lee Vilenski, last year's champion, scored 332 points, from a featured article and various other sport-related topics.

    These contestants, like all the others, now have to start again from scratch. In Round 1, contestants achieved eight featured articles, three featured lists and one featured picture, as well as around two hundred DYKs and twenty-seven ITNs. They completed 97 good article reviews, nearly double the 52 good articles they claimed. Contestants also claimed for 135 featured article and featured list candidate reviews. There is no longer a requirement to mention your WikiCup participation when undertaking these reviews.

    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. If you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is a good article candidate, a featured process, or something 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 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! If you wish to start or stop receiving this newsletter, please feel free to add or remove yourself from Wikipedia:WikiCup/Newsletter/Send. Sturmvogel 66 (talk) and Cwmhiraeth (talk).

    ; Project objectives

    • Continue to improve Big Brother articles to bring them inline with MOS:TV
    • All Big Brother parent articles should contain {{tl|Infobox television}} and {{tl|Series overview}}, either housed on the article or transcluded from a List of Episodes article, if there is more than one season of the series (see Big Brother (American TV series) and Celebrity Big Brother (British TV series) for examples).
    • All Big Brother season articles should contain {{tl|Infobox television season}} with the module {{tl|Infobox reality competition season}} (see Big Brother Canada (season 9) for an example).
    • The use of {{tl|Episode table}} and {{tl|Episode list}} with episode summaries of 200 words or less, or a general prose summary of 500 words or less, are preferred over other tables or formats (see Big Brother 23 (American season) for example).
    • Both Big Brother parent and season articles should follow the general format of articles described at MOS:TV (see Big Brother 21 (American season) for an example).
    • Any Big Brother series containing only one season should use {{tl|Infobox television}}, {{tl|Episode table}}, and {{tl|Episode list}} in its article but not {{tl|Series overview}} or any other season-specific templates such as {{tl|Infobox television season}} (see Big Brother: Over the Top for an example).
    • Where possible both Big Brother parent and season articles should have information regarding production of the series.
    • Per this discussion individual seasons of Big Brother should no longer contain a standalone article of contestants.
    • The Impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on television has caused numerous seasons or editions to be cancelled, postponed, or adjusted significantly; any information relating to this can be added in appropriate production sections.
