Leave a message Send an Email 2016 GA Cup-Finals WikiProject Good Articles's 2016 GA Cup - Round 3 Hello, GA Cup competitors! Tuesday saw the end of Round 3. Sainsf, for the third time, won with a sizable 487 points and a shocking 29 articles reviewed. In second, MPJ-DK had 168 points and 7 reviewed articles. In second place, MPJ-DK earned 168 points with just 7 articles, and in third place, Carbrera received 137 points with just 9 articles. Our two wildcard slots went to J Milburn with 122 points and Sturmvogel 66 with 101 points. In Round 3, 65 reviews were completed! At the beginning of the GA Cup, there were 595 outstanding nominations in the GAN queue; by the end of Round 3, there were 394. Another demonstrable way in which this competition has made a difference is in the length of time articles languish in the queue. At the beginning of the GA Cup, the longest wait was over 9 months [1]; at the end of Round 3, the longest wait had decreased significantly, to a little over 5 months [2]—nothing before 2016. It's clear that we continue to make a difference at GAN and throughout Wikipedia, something we should all be proud of. Thanks to all our competitors for helping to make the GA Cup a continued success, and for your part in helping other editors improve articles. We hope to see all remaining users fighting it out in the Finals for the GA Cup so that are successes continue. To qualify for the Finals, contestants had to earn the highest scores in each of the three pools in Round 3; plus, as well as the top 2 of all remaining users in all of the pools. For the Finals, users were placed in one pool of the remaining five users. To win the GA Cup, you must have the most points. The Finals started on June 1 at 0:00:01 UTC' and end on June 30 at 23:59:59 UTC. Information about the Finals and the pools can be found here. A clarification: in order for the points to count, you must mark your reviews as completed; it's not up to the judges to ensure that all reviews are completed by the end of a round. We wish all the contestants the best of luck! Cheers from Figureskatingfan, 3family6, Jaguar, MrWooHoo, and Zwerg Nase. To subscribe or unsubscribe to future GA Cup newsletter, please add or remove your name to our mailing list. If you are a participant still competing, you will be on the mailing list no matter what as this is the easiest way to communicate between all participants. --MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 00:24, 3 June 2016 (UTC) The IP who added "?" this edit wasn't a test or vandalism: as the edit summary makes clear, it was asking for clarification of a confused sentence (the text was " male literacy was 80%, and female literacy was 63.9% of the population was under six years of age.", which makes no sense: a statistic was obviously missing). The IP probably didn't know about {{clarify}} or any similar way to query this statement, but it was unhelpful to revert their edit and label it wrongly. I've now found the statistic, from the source cited, and tweaked the sentence to clarify it.

I believe this to be a "false positive" as a result of using automated tools to scan articles. Your edits have been reverted and I would ask you to monitor the settings your software is using so you can prevent another occurrence of this issue.

Reason being, that story was fabricated, there is no reason why that has to appear on his Wikipedia page.

During the class that led getting the certification, the instructor said there is no space between the two words. Lyssa Adkins is highly regarded for her expertise, and she wrote on the topic: http://www.agilelearninglabs.com/2011/01/scrummaster-vs-scrum-master/ She points to the Wikipedia style guide to support her feeling that Scrum master is better that ScrumMaster, though she respects the Scrum Alliance's trademark. I'd argue that the Scrum Alliance is correct, and that Wikipedia's style guide should be changed to support ScrumMaster. I don't think it's about the "pride" capital letters, it's about making it one word. Thanks for your consideration!
