User talk:SuperHamster#IOIO

@SuperHamster, The Global Advocacy team is launching our monthly conversation hours. Our first had to be rescheduled and we wanted to lift it back up for you. You can find your local time and details on how to join the Zoom call on our MetaWiki page. The next conversation will take place on July 28 at 13:00 EST.

The agenda is split between a dedicated theme for the month and whatever items you wish to cover. This month we will share some of our work on disinformation and human rights. There is no set agenda for the second half of the call - feel free to add your item to the list of topics in the etherpad.

These forums are an opportunity for us to answer questions about our work or about your initiatives, and to connect, share, and learn from each other. Come and talk to us! Ask us anything, or tell us anything, related to public policy and advocacy initiatives for free knowledge online. For example: You want to learn more about our team and our current initiatives You would like to share a policy development or advocacy campaign idea and would like to get feedback or support You have questions about a specific WMF policy priority or development

Hope to see you there! KRuane-WMF (talk) 13:15, 21 July 2022 (UTC)

The fourth round of the WikiCup has now finished. 383 points were required to reach the final, and the new round has got off to a flying start with all finalists already scoring. In round 4, Bloom6132 with 939 points was the highest points-scorer, with a combination of DYKs and In the news items, followed by BennyOnTheLoose, Sammi Brie and Lee Vilenski. The points of all contestants are swept away as we start afresh for the final round.

At this stage, we say goodbye to the eight competitors who didn't quite make it; thank you for the useful contributions you have made to the Cup and Wikipedia, and we hope you will join us again next year. For the remaining competitors, 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 14 days of "earning" them, and importantly, before the deadline on October 31st!

If you are concerned that your nomination, whether it be for a good article, a featured process, or anything else, will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews Needed (remember to remove your listing when no longer required). 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. If you wish to start or stop receiving this newsletter, please feel free to add or remove yourself from Wikipedia:WikiCup/Newsletter/Send. The judges are Sturmvogel 66 and Cwmhiraeth.

I'm sorry about everything I done in the past & have left the public eye in response to all the stuff that happened. I promise to not try any more stunts within NIWA, that I'm satisfied that I'm done with it, that me and Tacopill are still on good terms. And most importantly, please forgive me. If I was so unsatisfied with how things were run or if I could not have handled things, I should have just left years ago. 2005-Fan (talk) 18:03, 27 September 2022 (UTC)

Hello {{BASEPAGENAME}},

File:New page reviewer of the year cup.svg

Much has happened since the last newsletter over two months ago. The open letter finished with 444 signatures. The letter was sent to several dozen people at the WMF, and we have heard that it is being discussed but there has been no official reply. A related article appears in the current issue of The Signpost. If you haven't seen it, you should, including the readers' comment section.

Awards: Barnstars were given for the past several years (thanks to {{Noping|MPGuy2824}}), and we are now all caught up. The 2021 cup went to {{no ping|John B123}} for leading with 26,525 article reviews during 2021. To encourage moderate activity, a new "Iron" level barnstar is awarded annually for reviewing 360 articles ("one-a-day"), and 100 reviews earns the "Standard" NPP barnstar. About 90 reviewers received barnstars for each of the years 2018 to 2021 (including the new awards that were given retroactively). All awards issued for every year are listed on the Awards page. Check out the new Hall of Fame also.

Software news: {{Noping|Novem Linguae}} and {{Noping|MPGuy2824}} have connected with WMF developers who can review and approve patches, so they have been able to fix some bugs, and make other improvements to the Page Curation software. You can see everything that has been fixed recently here. The reviewer report has also been improved.

File:2022-10-16 NPP backlog chart.jpg

Suggestions:

• There is much enthusiasm over the low backlog, but remember that the "quality and depth of patrolling are more important than speed".
• Reminder: an article should not be tagged for any kind of deletion for a minimum of 15 minutes after creation and it is often appropriate to wait an hour or more. (from the NPP tutorial)
• Reviewers should focus their effort where it can do the most good, reviewing articles. Other clean-up tasks that don't require advanced permissions can be left to other editors that routinely improve articles in these ways (creating Talk Pages, specifying projects and ratings, adding categories, etc.) Let's rely on others when it makes the most sense. On the other hand, if you enjoy doing these tasks while reviewing and it keeps you engaged with NPP (or are guiding a newcomer), then by all means continue.
• This user script puts a link to the feed in your top toolbar.

Backlog:File:Everlasting Fireworks looped.gif Saving the best for last: From a July low of 8,500, the backlog climbed back to 11,000 in August and then reversed in September dropping to below 6,000 and continued falling with the October backlog drive to under 1,000, a level not seen in over four years. Keep in mind that there are 2,000 new articles every week, so the number of reviews is far higher than the backlog reduction. To keep the backlog under a thousand, we have to keep reviewing at about half the recent rate!

Hello Kevin, and I hope all is well. I saw the notice for the Indianapolis WikiConference and am again, as with Pittsburgh, puzzled by the need for a covid shot (plus one booster!) requirement. The Foundation long ago did away with the requirement for covid shots at their events, so why would the North American Conference committee require them, let alone a booster (many people had the initial shots but declined the booster regiment). I never had a shot, nor ever considered taking one, not even for a moment, and had covid and came out fine (so have natural immunity) but I and others can't attend the conference because of my and their choice, which seems quite unfair, especially late in 2022. Can you please remove this outdated requirement from the "you can attend if..." list, thanks. On the other topic, since I won't be there (and likely couldn't make it even if the vax requirement is removed) could you please mention (and even lobby for) the 2023 North American gathering to be live and, hopefully, in Las Vegas (Viva WikiVegas2023). Thanks again, and my best to you and yours. Randy Kryn (talk) 04:25, 5 November 2022 (UTC)

The 2022 WikiCup has drawn to a close with the final round going down to the wire. The 2022 champion is

• {{flagicon|England}} Lee Vilenski (1752 points), who won in 2020 and was runner up in both 2019 and last year. In the final round he achieved 3 FAs and 15 GAs, mostly on cue sports. He was closely followed by
• {{flagicon|Kingdom of Scotland|old}} Bloom6132 (1732), who specialised in "In the news" items and DYKs, and who has reached the final round of the Cup for the past three years. Next was
• File:ICS Zulu.svg BennyOnTheLoose (1238), another cue sports enthusiast, also interested in songs, followed by
• {{flagicon|New York City}} Muboshgu (1082), an "In the news" contributor, a seasoned contestant who first took part in the Cup ten years ago. Other finalists were
• 23px Sammi Brie (930), who scored with a featured article, good articles and DYKs on TV and radio stations,
• {{flagicon|United Nations}} Kavyansh.Singh (370), who created various articles on famous Americans, including an FA on Louis H. Bean, famed for his prediction of election outcomes. Next was
• {{flagicon|Chicago}} PCN02WPS (292), who scored with good articles and DYKs on sporting and other topics and
• {{flagicon|Toronto}} Z1720 (25) who had DYKs on various topics including historic Canadians.

During the WikiCup, contestants achieved 37 featured articles, 349 good articles, 360 featured article reviews, 683 good article reviews and 480 In the news items, so Wikipedia has benefited greatly from the activities of WikiCup competitors. Well done everyone! All those who reached the final round will receive awards and the following special awards will be made, based on high performance in particular areas of content creation and review. 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 the overall leader in this field.

• {{flagicon|England}} Lee Vilenski wins the featured article prize, for a total of 6 FAs during the course of the competition and 3 in the final round.
• {{flagicon|United Nations}} Kavyansh.Singh wins the featured list prize, for 3 FLs in round 2.
• 25px Adam Cuerden wins the featured picture prize, for 39 FPs during the competition.
• {{flagicon|Toronto}} Z1720 wins the featured article reviewer prize, for 35 FARs in round 4.
• {{flagicon|New York}} Epicgenius wins the good article prize, for 32 GAs in round 1.
• File:Flag of Provo, Utah (1989–2015).svg SounderBruce wins the featured topic prize, for 4 FT articles in round 1.
• {{flagicon|England}} Lee Vilenski wins the good topic prize, for 34 GT articles in round 5.
• 23px Sammi Brie wins the good article reviewer prize, for 71 GARs overall.
• 23px Sammi Brie wins the Did you know prize, for 30 DYKs in round 3 and 106 overall.
• {{flagicon|Kingdom of Scotland|old}} Bloom6132 wins the In the news prize, for 106 ITNs in round 5 and 289 overall.

Next year's competition will begin on 1 January and possible changes to the rules and scoring are being discussed on the discussion page. You are invited to sign up to take part in the contest; the WikiCup is open to all Wikipedians, both novices and experienced editors, and we hope to have a good turnout for the 2023 competition.

So ends the first round of the 2023 WikiCup. Everyone with a positive score moved on to Round 2, with 54 contestants qualifying. The top scorers in Round 1 were:

• {{flagicon image|Royal standard of England (1406–1603).svg|link=Dual monarchy of England and France}} Unlimitedlead with 1205 points, a WikiCup newcomer, led the field with two featured articles on historical figures and several featured article candidate reviews.
• {{flagicon|New York (state)}} Epicgenius was in second place with 789 points; a seasoned WikiCup competitor he specialises in buildings and locations in New York.
• {{flagicon|Germany}} FrB.TG was in third place with 625 points, garnered from a featured article on a filmmaker which qualified for an impressive number of bonus points.
• {{flagicon|USA}} TheJoebro64, another WikiCup newcomer, came next with 600 points gained from two featured articles on video games.
• {{flagicon|Byzantine Empire}} Iazyges was in fifth place with 532 points, from two featured articles on classical history.

The top sixteen contestants at the end of Round 1 had all scored over 300 points; these included {{flagicon|Berkelland}} LunaEatsTuna, {{flagicon image|Flag of Mars.svg|link=Mars}} Thebiguglyalien, {{flagicon image|Transgender Pride flag.svg|link=Transgender}} Sammi Brie, {{flagicon|New England}} Trainsandotherthings, {{flagicon|ENG}} Lee Vilenski, {{flagicon|Indonesia}} Juxlos, {{flagicon image|Flag of Earth.svg|link=Earth}} Unexpectedlydian, {{flagicon|Washington}} SounderBruce, {{flagicon|Wales}} Kosack, {{flagicon image|Flag_of_Esperanto.svg|link=Esperanto}} BennyOnTheLoose and {{flagicon|Chicago}} PCN02WPS. It was a high-scoring start to the competition.

These contestants, like all the others, now have to start again from scratch. The first round finished on February 26. Remember that any content promoted after that date but before the start of Round 2 can be claimed in Round 2. Some contestants made claims before the new submissions pages were set up, and they will need to resubmit them. 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 Needed.

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!

The second round of the 2023 WikiCup has now finished. Contestants needed to have scored 60 points to advance into round 3. Our top five scorers in round 2 all included a featured article among their submissions and each scored over 500 points. They were:

• {{flagicon|Byzantine Empire}} Iazyges (1040) with three FAs on Byzantine emperors, and lots of bonus points.
• {{flagicon image|Royal standard of England (1406–1603).svg|link=Dual monarchy of England and France}} Unlimitedlead (847), with three FAs on ancient history, one GA and nine reviews.
• {{flagicon|New York (state)}} Epicgenius (636), a WikiCup veteran, with one FA on the New Amsterdam Theatre, four GAs and eleven DYKs
• {{flagicon image|Flag_of_Esperanto.svg|link=Esperanto}} BennyOnTheLoose (553), a seasoned competitor, with one FA on snooker, six GAs and seven reviews.
• {{flagicon|Germany}} FrB.TG (525), with one FA, a Lady Gaga song and a mass of bonus points.

Other notable performances were put in by {{flagicon image|Transgender Pride flag.svg|link=Transgender}} Sammi Brie, {{flagicon image|Flag of Mars.svg|link=Mars}} Thebiguglyalien, {{flagicon image|Cat in console.png}} MyCatIsAChonk, {{flagicon|Chicago}} PCN02WPS, and {{flagicon|London}} AirshipJungleman29.

So far contestants have achieved thirteen featured articles between them, one being a joint effort, and forty-nine good articles. The judges are pleased with the thorough reviews that are being performed, and have hardly had to reject any. As we enter the third round, remember that any content promoted after the end of round 2 but before the start of round 3 can be claimed in round 3. Remember too that you must claim your points within 14 days of "earning" them.

The fourth round of the competition has finished, with anyone scoring less than 673 points being eliminated. It was a high scoring round with all but one of the contestants who progressed to the final having achieved an FA during the round. The highest scorers were

• {{flagicon|New York (state)}} Epicgenius, with 2173 points topping the scores, gained mainly from a featured article, 38 good articles and 9 DYKs. He was followed by
• {{flagicon image|Transgender Pride flag.svg|link=Transgender}} Sammi Brie, with 1575 points, gained mainly from a featured article, 28 good articles and 50 good article reviews. Close behind was
• {{flagicon image|Flag of Mars.svg|link=Mars}} Thebiguglyalien, with 1535 points mainly gained from a featured article, 15 good articles, 26 good article reviews and lots of bonus points.

Between them during round 4, contestants achieved 12 featured articles, 3 featured lists, 3 featured pictures, 126 good articles, 46 DYK entries, 14 ITN entries, 67 featured article candidate reviews and 147 good article reviews. Congratulations to our eight finalists and 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 and within 24 hours of the end of the final. 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!

Wikipedia has benefitted greatly from the quality creations, expansions and improvements made, and the numerous reviews performed. All those who reached the final round will win awards. The following special awards will be made based on high performance in particular areas of content creation and review. Awards will be handed out in the next few days.

The WikiCup has run every year since 2007. With the 2023 contest now concluded, I will be standing down as a judge due to real life commitments, so I hope that another editor will take over running the competition. Please get in touch if you are interested. Next year's competition will hopefully begin on 1 January 2024. You are invited to sign up to participate in the contest; the WikiCup is open to all Wikipedians, both novices and experienced editors. It only remains to congratulate our worthy winners once again and thank all participants for their involvement!

News and updates for administrators from the past month (November 2023).

File:Green check.svg Guideline and policy news

• Following a talk page discussion, the Administrators' accountability policy has been updated to note that while it is considered best practice for administrators to have notifications (pings) enabled, this is not mandatory. Administrators who do not use notifications are now strongly encouraged to indicate this on their user page.

File:Scale of justice 2.svg Arbitration

• Following a motion, the Extended Confirmed Restriction has been amended, removing the allowance for non-extended-confirmed editors to post constructive comments on the "Talk:" namespace.

• The Arbitration Committee has announced a call for Checkusers and Oversighters, stating that it will currently be accepting applications for CheckUser and/or Oversight permissions at any point in the year.
• Eligible users are invited to vote on candidates for the Arbitration Committee until 23:59 December 11, 2023 (UTC). Candidate statements can be seen here.

: RefRenamer by Nardog is this issue's featured script. For whatever reason, the foundation will only give us better reference names in VisualEditor if we wish for it in the next survey. Nardog to the rescue! This script has a ton of options to satisfy almost anyone who wishes to use better refnames than ":0" and ":418".

• Nardog: MoveHistory can now look up the move history of any page from anywhere on the site.
• User:Enterprisey/diff-permalink now has a version that copies the Special:Diff link with square brackets.
• User:GhostInTheMachine/WatchlistTidy now moves the Active Filters panel to the right so that the Show/Hide button doesn't constantly jump.
• User:Alexander Davronov/HistoryHelper has now become stable with some bugfixes and features such as automatically highlighting potentially uncivil edit summaries and automatically pinging all the users selected.
• Wikipedia:AutoEd/unicodehex.js will no longer replace legacy MediaWiki dot-entities (dot followed by two uppercase alphanumeric characters) in article links, which caused several links to become broken.

{{column}}

File:Text-x-source.svg

{{column}}

• Many of our favorite scripts such as User:Fred Gandt/userResourceManager, User:Guarapiranga/search-shortcuts and User:Bradv/Scripts/Superlinks haven't been updated for Vector 2022. You could be the one to change that!
• User:Elominius/gadget/media timer works, but its UI looks alien. Someone could improve it...
• To a lesser extent, the same goes for User:PrimeHunter/Search sort.js. I wish someone would integrate the sorts into the sort menu instead of adding 11 portlet links.
• We want...

:* ...a mark-as-read button for Watchlyst Greybar Unsin

:* ...a tool to automatically fix CAT:BROKENREFs, preferably a fork/addition to User:TheJJJunk/ARA

:* ...a fix/fork of User:DannyS712/SectionRemover.js to make it work

• A WP:3O requesting and responding tool, similar to Terasil's classic edit request tool
• A "bytes removed"/"added" filter on the user contribs page
• A review tool for WP:proposed deletions
• Mass patrol new pages by a user for use in WP:RFP/A
• ...and many more, all available at Wikipedia:User scripts/Requests

{{columns-end}}

• Aaron Liu: Watchlyst Greybar Unsin is a rewrite of Ais's Watchlist Notifier with modern APIs and several new features such as not displaying watchlist items marked as seen (hence the name), not bolding diffs of unseen watchlist elements which doesn’t work properly anyways, displaying the rendered edit summary, proper display of log and creation actions and more links.
• Alexis Jazz: Factotum is a spiritual successor to reply-link with a host of extra features like section adding, link rewriting, regular expressions and more.
• User:Aveaoz/AutoMobileRedirect: This script will automatically redirect MobileFrontend (en.m.wikipedia) to normal Wikipedia. Unlike existing scripts, this one will actually check if your browser is mobile or not through its secret agent string, so you can stay logged in on mobile! Hooray screen estate!
• Chlod:
• Deputy is a first-of-its-kind copyright cleanup toolkit. It overrides the interface for Wikipedia:Contributor copyright investigations for easy case processing. It also includes the functionality of the following (also new) scripts:
• Attribution Notice Template Editor (ANTE) graphically modifies content attribution notices. It is the successor to User:Chlod/Scripts/CopiedTemplateEditor and supports more templates than {{T|copied}} ones.
• Infringement Assistant allows a user to hide sections of a page for suspected copyright violations and report the page to the appropriate Wikipedia:Copyright problems noticeboard.
• User:Elominius/gadget/diff arrow keys allows navigation between diffs with the arrow keys. It also has a version that requires holding {{key press|Ctrl}} with the arrow key.
• Enterprisey
• diff-permalink-2 allows quickly copying wikilinks to diff and permalink pages from those pages, a variation of existing script User:Enterprisey/diff-permalink
• archiver is a fork of Σ's Archiver with several bugfixes.
• /parent-cats highlights categories that are a subcategory of a category already included in a page's categories.
• User:Guarapiranga/accessKeysCheatSheet adds an access key shortcut to display all shortcuts based on code provided by Nardog and NguoiDungKhongDinhDanh.
• User:HungKhanh0106/ProperDisplay loads a bunch of fonts to add correct rendering supports for "esoteric" languages.
• User:Jeeputer/highlightPiped will make piped links irresistible (or else).
• User:Jerome Frank Disciple/curlyfixer.js adds an WP:AutoEd function that straightens curly quotes per MOS. That's right! Such a module was only made in the 14th year of AutoEd's existence! Configure away!
• Frequently link to Wikipedia on your websites yet find generating CC-BY credits to be such a hassle? Say no more! User:Luke10.27/attribute will automatically do it for ya and copy the credit to yer clipboard.
• User:MPGuy2824/MoveToDraft, a spiritual successor (i.e. fork) to Evad37's script, with a few bugs solved, and a host of extra features like check-boxes for choosing draftification reasons, multi-contributor notification, and appropriate warnings based on last edit time.
• Nardog
• /CopyCodeBlock: one of the most important operations for any scripter and script-user is to copy and paste. This script adds a copy button in the top right of every code block (not to be confused with ) that will, well, copy it to your clipboard!
• /RCMuter: Hide specific users, perhaps User:MediaWiki message delivery, from the Watchlist and Recent Changes.
• /VitalTopicon makes you see the vital article topicon on WP:vital articles.
• m:User:NguoiDungKhongDinhDanh/AceForLuaDebugConsole.js adds the Ace editor (a.k.a. the editor you see when editing JS, CSS and Lua on Wikimedia wikis) to the Lua debug console.

If Indianapolis is still the site of the next conference some ideas to pass along. I'd talked to Peter about the Ray Bradbury Archives as either a tour site or asking Jon Eller to speak about how Wikipedia is used by groups such as his ([https://www.zocalopublicsquare.org/2020/08/27/jonathan-r-eller/personalities/in-the-green-room/ a Jon Eller link]). Other ideas include a full banquet night, welcome speakers (the governor, Mayor of Indianapolis, etc.), a session of "open mic" where Wikipedians can have a minute or so each to tell of their favorite editing experience (mine was when a long-time editor was concerned about there being four images of the same photograph on the page, and I convinced him to go with a fifth!), a panel of celebrities discussing how their Wikipedia articles have affected their career and if they find them accurate or inaccurate, etc. One key, of course, is funding. WMF should fund these conferences to the utmost, including more scholarships and that full banquet (with great meals on the other days - both lunch and dinner). Wikipedia's status in North America and the world is top-of-chart, and its conferences could be on par, and as professional (and fun), as other great institutions' conferences. And glad it's in October and not November, with the national election in full swing. Please let me know how I can help with the conference or planning, thanks. <a href='?title=User%3ARandy_Kryn'>Randy Kryn</a> (<a href='?title=User_talk%3ARandy_Kryn'>talk</a>) 11:11, 24 March 2024 (UTC)</p></div></section><section class='wiki-section collapsible' id='section--he-ignpost-29-arch-2024'><h2 class='section-toggle'>''The Signpost'': 29 March 2024</h2><div class='wiki-body'><p><div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr"><div style="column-count:2;"> {{Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/2024-03-29}} </div><!--Volume 20, Issue 5--> <div class="hlist" style="margin-top:10px; font-size:90%; padding-left:5px; font-family:Georgia, Palatino, Palatino Linotype, Times, Times New Roman, serif;"> * <strong><a href='?title=Wikipedia%3AWikipedia_Signpost'>Read this Signpost in full</a></strong> * <a href='?title=Wikipedia%3AWikipedia_Signpost%2FSingle%2F2024-03-29'>Single-page</a> * <a href='?title=Wikipedia%3AWikipedia_Signpost%2FSubscribe'>Unsubscribe</a> * <a href='?title=User%3AMediaWiki_message_delivery'>MediaWiki message delivery</a> (<a href='?title=User_talk%3AMediaWiki_message_delivery'>talk</a>) 22:41, 29 March 2024 (UTC) <!-- Sent via script (<a href='?title=User%3AJPxG%2FSPS'>User:JPxG/SPS</a>) --></div></div></p> <p><!-- Message sent by User:JPxG@enwiki using the list at https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Wikipedia_Signpost/Subscribe&oldid=1216007342 --></p></div></section><section class='wiki-section collapsible' id='section--dministrators-newsletter-pril-2024'><h2 class='section-toggle'>Administrators' newsletter – April 2024</h2><div class='wiki-body'><p><a href='?title=Wikipedia%3AAdministrators%27_newsletter'>News and updates for administrators</a> from the past month (March 2024).</p> <p><a href='?title=File%3AANEWSicon.png'>File:ANEWSicon.png</a></p> <p><a href='?title=File%3AWikipedia_Administrator.svg'>File:Wikipedia Administrator.svg</a> <strong>Administrator changes</strong></p> <p>:<a href='?title=File%3AGnome-colors-list-remove.svg'>File:Gnome-colors-list-remove.svg</a> {{Hlist|class=inline</p> <p>|<a href='?title=Special%3APermalink%2F1211130465%23Wikipedia%3AInactive_administrators%2F2024%23March_2024'>Kbdank71</a></p> <p>|<a href='?title=Special%3APermalink%2F1211130465%23Wikipedia%3AInactive_administrators%2F2024%23March_2024'>Kosack</a></p> <p>|<a href='?title=Special%3APermalink%2F1212001446%23Desysop_request_NrDg'>NrDg</a></p> <p>|<a href='?title=Special%3APermalink%2F1211247911%23Desysop_request_TLSuda'>TLSuda</a></p> <p>}}</p> <p><a href='?title=File%3AGreen_check.svg'>File:Green check.svg</a> <strong>Guideline and policy news</strong></p> <ul> <li>An <a href='?title=Wikipedia%3AVillage_pump_%28proposals%29%23RfC%3A_Converting_all_current_and_future_community_discretionary_sanctions_to_%28community_designated%29_contentious_topics_procedure'>RfC</a> is open to convert all current and future <a href='?title=WP%3AOLDDS'>community discretionary sanctions</a> to (community designated) <a href='?title=WP%3ACTOP'>contentious topics procedure</a>.</li> </ul> <p><a href='?title=File%3AOcticons-tools.svg'>File:Octicons-tools.svg</a> <strong>Technical news</strong></p> <ul> <li>The Toolforge Grid Engine services have been shut down after the final migration process from Grid Engine to Kubernetes.

The 2025 competition has just begun and all article creators, expanders, improvers and reviewers are welcome to take part.

If you have already signed up, your submissions page can be found <strong><a href='?title=Wikipedia%3AWikiCup'>here</a></strong>. If you have not yet signed up, you can <strong><a href='?title=Wikipedia%3AWikiCup%2F2025_signups'>add your name here</a></strong> and the judges will set up your submissions page ready for you to take part. Any questions on the scoring, rules or anything else should be directed to one of the judges, or posted to the <a href='?title=Wikipedia_talk%3AWikiCup'>WikiCup talk page</a>.</p> <p>For the 2025 WikiCup, we've implemented <a href='?title=Wikipedia%3AWikiCup%2FScoring%23What%27s_changed_from_last_year%3F'>several changes</a> to the scoring system. The highest-ranking contestants will now receive <a href='?title=Wikipedia%3AWikiCup%2FScoring%23Tournament_points'>tournament points</a> at the end of each round, and final rankings are decided by the number of tournament points each contestant has. If you're busy and can't sign up in January, don't worry: Signups are now open throughout the year. To make things fairer for latecomers, the lowest-scoring contestants will no longer be eliminated at the end of each round.</p> <p>The first round will end on 26 February. The judges for the WikiCup this year are: {{User4|Cwmhiraeth}}, {{User4|Epicgenius}}, {{User4|Frostly}}, {{User4|Guerillero}} and {{User4|Lee Vilenski}}.

As a reminder, we are no longer disqualifying the lowest-scoring contestants; everyone who competed in round 1 will advance to round 2 unless they have withdrawn or been banned from Wikipedia. Instead, the contestants with the highest round-point totals now receive <a href='?title=Wikipedia%3AWikiCup%2FScoring%23Tournament_points'>tournament points</a> at the end of each round. Unlike the <a href='?title=Wikipedia%3AWikiCup%23Key'>round points in the main WikiCup table</a>, which are reset at the end of each round, tournament points are carried over between rounds and can only be earned if a competitor is among the top 16 round-point scorers. <a href='?title=Wikipedia%3AWikiCup%2FHistory%2F2025%2FTournament_points_table'>This table</a> shows all competitors who have received tournament points so far.</p> <p>Round 1 was very competitive compared with previous years; two contestants scored more than 1,000 round points, and the top 16 contestants all scored more than 500 round points. The following competitors scored more than 800 round points:</p> <ul> <li>{{Wikipedia:WikiCup/Participant16|Gog the Mild}} with 1,168 round points, mainly from 4 <a href='?title=Wikipedia%3Afeatured_articles'>featured articles</a> and 4 <a href='?title=Wikipedia%3Agood_articles'>good articles</a> on old military history, in addition to an assortment of GA and FA reviews.</li> <li>{{Wikipedia:WikiCup/Participant16|Generalissima}} with 1,095 round points, mainly from 2 FAs, 2 <a href='?title=Wikipedia%3Afeatured_lists'>featured lists</a>, 8 GAs, and 16 <a href='?title=Wikipedia%3ADid_you_know'>Did You Know</a> articles mainly on historical topics.</li> <li>{{Wikipedia:WikiCup/Participant16|BeanieFan11}}, with 866 round points from 20 GAs, 23 DYKs, and 2 <a href='?title=Wikipedia%3Ain_the_news'>In the News</a> articles primarily about athletes.</li> <li>{{Wikipedia:WikiCup/Participant16|Sammi Brie}}, with 846 round points from 16 GAs about radio and TV stations, 45 GA reviews, and 3 DYKs.</li> <li>{{Wikipedia:WikiCup/Participant16|Hey man im josh}}, with 816 round points from 5 FLs about sports and Olympic topics, 46 FL reviews, 3 ITN articles, and a large number of bonus points.</li> <li>{{Wikipedia:WikiCup/Participant16|MaranoFan}}, with 815 round points primarily from 3 FAs and 1 GA about music, in addition to 9 article reviews.</li> </ul> <p>The full scores for round 1 can be seen <a href='?title=Wikipedia%3AWikiCup%2FHistory%2F2025%2FRound_1'>here</a>. During this round, contestants have claimed 18 featured articles, 26 featured lists, 1 featured-topic article, 197 good articles, 38 good-topic articles and more than 100 Did You Know articles. In addition, competitors have worked on 23 In the News articles, and they have conducted nearly 550 reviews.</p> <p>Remember that any content promoted after 26 February but before the start of Round 2 can be claimed in Round 2, which begins on 1 March. 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 <a href='?title=Wikipedia%3AWikiCup%2FReviews_Needed'>Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews Needed</a>. If you want to help out with the WikiCup, feel free to review one of the nominations listed on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews Needed.

To reiterate what we said in the previous newsletter, we are no longer disqualifying contestants based on how many points (now known as round points) they received. Instead, the contestants with the highest round-point totals now receive <a href='?title=Wikipedia%3AWikiCup%2FScoring%23Tournament_points'>tournament points</a> at the end of each round. These tournament points are carried over between rounds, and can only be earned if a competitor is among the top 16 round-point scorers at the end of each round. <a href='?title=Wikipedia%3AWikiCup%2FHistory%2F2025%2FTournament_points_table'>This table</a> shows all competitors who have received tournament points so far. Everyone who competed in round 2 will advance to round 3 unless they have withdrawn or been banned.</p> <p>Round 2 was quite competitive. Four contestants scored more than 1,000 round points, and eight scored more than 500 points (including one who has withdrawn). The following competitors scored at least 800 points:</p> <ul> <li>{{Wikipedia:WikiCup/Participant16|BeanieFan11}} with 1,233 round points from 24 <a href='?title=Wikipedia%3Agood_articles'>good articles</a>, 28 <a href='?title=Wikipedia%3ADid_you_know'>Did you know</a> articles, and one <a href='?title=WP%3AIn_the_news'>In the news</a> nomination, mainly about athletes and politicians</li> <li>{{Wikipedia:WikiCup/Participant16|Thebiguglyalien}} with 1,127 round points, almost entirely from two high-multiplier <a href='?title=Wikipedia%3AFeatured_articles'>featured articles</a> on <a href='?title=Black_Widow_%28Natasha_Romanova%29'>Black Widow (Natasha Romanova)</a> and <a href='?title=Grace_Coolidge'>Grace Coolidge</a>, in addition to two GAs and two reviews</li> <li>{{Wikipedia:WikiCup/Participant16|History6042}} with 1,088 round points from four <a href='?title=WP%3Afeatured_lists'>featured lists</a> about Michelin-starred restaurants, nine good articles and a <a href='?title=WP%3AGood_topic'>good topic</a> mostly on Olympic-related subjects, seven ITN articles, and dozens of reviews</li> <li>{{Wikipedia:WikiCup/Participant16|Gog the Mild}} with 1,085 round points from three FAs, one GA, and four DYKs on military history, as well as 18 reviews</li> <li>{{Wikipedia:WikiCup/Participant16|Arconning}} with 887 round points, mostly from four FLs, six GAs, and seven DYKs on Olympic topics, along with more than two dozen reviews</li> </ul> <p>In addition, we would like to recognize {{Wikipedia:WikiCup/Participant16|Generalissima}} for her efforts; she scored 801 round points but withdrew before the end of the round.</p> <p>The full scores for round 2 can be seen <a href='?title=Wikipedia%3AWikiCup%2FHistory%2F2025%2FRound_2'>here</a>. During this round, contestants have claimed 13 featured articles, 20 featured lists, 4 featured-topic articles, 138 good articles, 7 good-topic articles, and more than 100 Did You Know articles. In addition, competitors have worked on 19 In the News articles, and they have conducted nearly 300 reviews.</p> <p>Remember that any content promoted after 28 April but before the start of Round 3 can be claimed in Round 3. 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.

As an event coordinator on English Wikipedia, I’m happy to share some news with you. You now have the event-organizer right! This gives you access to the CampaignEvents extension, a powerful set of tools to help you organize and promote events and WikiProjects more easily.</p> <p>With the CampaignEvents extension, you can:</p> <ul> <li>Manage event registration directly on English Wikipedia.</li> <li>Use the Invitation List tool to find potential participants for your events/WikiProjects</li> <li>Receive automatic promotion of your events via the <a href='?title=Special%3AAllEvents'>Collaboration List</a></li> </ul> <p>Learn more on <a href='?title=mw%3AHelp%3AExtension%3ACampaignEvents'>mw:Help:Extension:CampaignEvents</a></p> <p>Now that I have your attention, I’d also like to share some updates to the extension:</p> <ul> <li>The <a href='?title=m%3ACampaignEvents%2FCollaboration_list'>Collaboration List</a> can now be <a href='?title=mw%3ATransclusion'>transcluded</a>, meaning you can easily embed it on other wiki pages to share event details with more people by adding <nowiki>{{Special:AllEvents}}</nowiki>. <a href='?title=mw%3AHelp%3AExtension%3ACampaignEvents%2FCollaboration_list%2FTransclusion'>Learn more</a>.</li> <li>Admins can now determine which namespaces are permitted for Event Registration on English Wikipedia, via Special:CommunityConfiguration. Right now, the Event namespace is permitted by default for Event Registration. However, other namespaces (such as Wikipedia, WikiProject, etc) can now be added as permitted namespaces by admins too. This can help other types of organized activities, such as WikiProjects, use Event Registration.For details, please visit: <a href='?title=mw%3AHelp%3AExtension%3ACampaignEvents%2FRegistration%2FPermitted_namespaces'>Permitted_namespaces</a></li> </ul> <p>If you need help using these new tools, I’m here to support you.

I also made a few tweaks to make the dashboard more useful. You can see the project page at <a href='?title=%3Azh%3AUser%3ASuperGrey%2Fgadgets%2FCiteUnseen'>:zh:User:SuperGrey/gadgets/CiteUnseen</a> (and the [https://zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:%E5%89%8D%E7%BC%80%E7%B4%A2%E5%BC%95?prefix=User%3ASuperGrey%2Fgadgets%2FCiteUnseen&namespace=0&hideredirects=1&stripprefix=1 prefix list]). It currently offers i18n support for English, Chinese, and Japanese, and can be imported globally across all Wikimedia projects.</p> <p>That being said, the version hosted on Chinese Wikipedia prioritizes source evaluations by the Chinese Wikipedia community. For English-Wikipedia users, it might be helpful to migrate this renovated version back to <a href='?title=User%3ASuperHamster%2FCiteUnseen'>User:SuperHamster/CiteUnseen</a>, with reordered domain lists to reflect the English-Wikipedia consensus. If you'd like, we can collaborate on updating User:SuperHamster/CiteUnseen together. Alternatively, I can migrate it to my English-Wikipedia user page and we can continue development there.</p> <p>Looking forward to your reply! <a href='?title=User%3ASuperGrey'><strong><span style="color:#765CAE">Super</span><span style="color:#525252">Grey</span></strong></a> (<a href='?title=User_talk%3ASuperGrey'>talk</a>) 03:11, 13 June 2025 (UTC)</p> <p>:{{ping|SuperGrey}} Oh, this is fantastic, thank you for sharing! I've been slowly working on some similar changes in the background (dashboard improvements, on-wiki lists) so it's great to see you're one step ahead of me. I'm happy to update my script here with these changes and continue to collaborate.</p> <p>:Couple of questions for you:</p> <p>:* What do you think of collaborating on the codebase over at gitlab.wikimedia.org? This could potentially serve as the central repository for us to collaborate, instead of having to maintain scripts separately across language versions of Wikipedia. I've copied my existing code over to https://gitlab.wikimedia.org/kevinpayravi/cite-unseen. If this sounds all right to you, I can add you as a maintainer to the repo and you can update the repo with your updated code (so you're properly credited for your work)? I see your Phabricator account but don't see an LDAP account attached, so I believe you'll need to make a <a href='?title=%3Awikitech%3AHelp%3ACreate_a_Wikimedia_developer_account'>developer account</a> if you haven't done so yet. Once you're set up on GitLab I can add you to the repo. Once your code is in, I can see if I can add in some of the changes I have been working on (e.g. I have a "settings" modal I've been working on, and made the dashboard a filter so users can select a source type and only see sources that match that categorization).</p> <p>:* What do you think of hosting centralized lists over at meta.wikimedia.org? This way, we can have a central set of lists that all language versions of CiteUnseen can refer to and pull from by default, instead of each language version of Wikipedia maintaining their own separately. There is, however, the challenge of when language versions of Wikipedia might disagree on how sources should be classified (e.g. for reliability categorizations, or what "government controlled" might mean). Perhaps we host central lists on meta.wikimedia.org that the script would pull from by default, but language wikis can also have their own separate local lists if they want?</p> <p>:Thank you! <strong>~<a href='?title=User%3ASuperHamster'><em><span style="color:#07517C;">Super</span></em><span style="color:#6FA23B;">Hamster</span></a></strong> <small><a href='?title=User_talk%3ASuperHamster'>Talk</a> <a href='?title=Special%3AContribs%2FSuperHamster'>Contribs</a></small> 06:50, 13 June 2025 (UTC)</p> <p>::Thanks for the suggestion! I just registered for a developer account with the name <code>SuperGrey</code>. It seems that I still need a [https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T396833 manual approval] on the Phabricator before I can get access to the GitLab services, but other than that, alll seems good.</p> <p>::For the centralized hosting, I agree it is a good way. As for the local differences, I think we don't actually need separate local lists -- just different "orders" would work. <a href='?title=%3Azh%3AUser%3ASuperGrey%2Fgadgets%2FCiteUnseen%2Fsources.js'>My current solution</a> on Chinese Wikipedia puts Chinese source lists (e.g. <a href='?title=%3Azh%3AWP%3ARS%2FP'>:zh:WP:RS/P</a>) at the top; while in English Wikipedia, it can be <a href='?title=%3Aen%3AWP%3ARS%2FP'>:en:WP:RS/P</a> at the top.
