Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Melissa Smook, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Transvaal. 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.

The 2014 WikiCup champion is Smithsonian Institution Godot13 (submissions), who flew the flag of the Smithsonian Institution. This was Godot13's first WikiCup competition and, over the 10 months of the competition, he has produced (among other contributions) two featured lists and an incredible 292 featured pictures, including architectural photographs and scans of historical documents. Wales Cwmhiraeth (submissions), 2012 and 2013 WikiCup champion, came in second, having written a large number of biology-related articles. Scotland Casliber (submissions), WikiCup finalist every year since 2010, finished in third.

A full list of our prize-winners follows:

Congratulations to everyone who has been successful in this year's WikiCup, whether you made it to the final rounds or not, and a particular congratulations to the newcomers to the WikiCup who have participated this year. We warmly invite all of you to sign up for next year's competition. Discussions and polls concerning potential rules changes are also open, and all are welcome to participate. The WikiCup judges will be back in touch over the coming months, and we hope to see you all in the 2014 competition. Until then, it only remains to once again congratulate our worthy winners, and thank all participants for their involvement!

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.

Using font tags in your signature

Hello there! I'm working on a project trying to bring most of the coding on Wikipedia up to the most current standards (HTML5), and I noticed that your signature is using <font>...</font> tags which were deprecated in HTML 4.0 Transitional, marked as invalid in 4.0 Strict, and are not part of HTML5 at all. I'd love to help you update your signature to use newer code, and if you're interested, I suggest replacing: 

'''[[User:Harrias|<span style="color:#00cc33;">Harrias</span>]]''' [[User_talk:Harrias|<sup style="color:#009900;">talk</sup>]]

with: 

[[User:Harrias|<b style="color:#00cc33">Harrias</b>]] <sup>[[User_talk:Harrias|<span style="color:#009900">talk</span>]]</sup>

which will result in a 126 character long signature with an appearance of: Harrias talkcompared to your existing 126 character long signature of: Harrias talk — Either way. Happy editing! Darylgolden(talk) 02:20, 1 January 2015 (UTC)

WikiCup 2015 launch newsletter

Round one of the 2015 WikiCup has begun! So far we've had around 80 signups, which close on February 5. If you have not already signed up and want to do so, then you can add your name here. There have been changes to to several of the points scores for various categories, and the addition of Peer Reviews for the first time. These will work in the same manner as Good Article Reviews, and all of the changes are summarised here.

Remember that only the top 64 scoring competitors will make it through to the second round, and one of the new changes this year is that all scores must be claimed within two weeks of an article's promotion or appearance, so don't forget to add them to your submissions pages! If you are concerned that your nomination will not receive the necessary reviews, and you hope to get it promoted before the end of the round, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews. However, please remember to continue to offer reviews at GAN, FAC and all the other pages that require them to prevent any backlogs which could otherwise be caused by the Cup. As ever, questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup and the judges are reachable on their talk pages. Good luck!

Hi Harrias. Thanks for picking up the slack over at the DYK queues - really appreciate it running on time now.

Would you mind posting these admin instructions on the queues? Just in case of emergencies (i.e. dragging someone over from WP:AN). Maybe something like the top of WP:ITN/C as an example layout. Thanks again. Fuebaey (talk) 13:29, 2 January 2015 (UTC)

Taunton by-election, 1887

Congratulations on writing Taunton by-election, 1887 to GA standard. As requested I've taken another look (having only briefly glimpsed at it before). It seems pretty comprehensive, well written and most of it is cited, but I did spot a couple of things if you want to work it towards FA:

  • You could include a little more on the characters (like the Allsopps were brewers bit but for Sanders - who said "becoming accustomed to acting as a political ninepin")
  • Maybe a sentence on the history of the constituency. (eg created 1295)
  • Maybe a bit more on the Irish Home Rule movement - why it was a significant major issue at the time if it had been significant in the previous general election. I presume Sanders wasn't Liberal Unionist Party - was it all about the Crimes Bill (which seems to be wikilinked on 2nd use). Is the Coercion Bill the same as the Protection of Person and Property Act 1881?
  • Why did Samuel Farrant withdraw?
  • The "result" sub section only has one citation - does this cover everything?
  • Returning officer could be wikilinked
  • Any pics of the participants (would probably be out of copyright by now)

Hope these are helpful?— Rod talk 16:34, 20 January 2015 (UTC)

Gallox Bridge, Dunster

Following me taking a look at Taunton by-election, 1887 for ideas for development, can I ask a return favour? I have this vague (and probably very silly) idea of getting all EH properties in Somerset to be a Good Topic: see below with current status:

edit | discuss
List of English Heritage properties in Somerset
13 articles
Cleeve Abbey
Dunster Butter Cross
Farleigh Hungerford Castle
Gallox Bridge, Dunster
Muchelney Abbey
Nunney Castle
Sir Bevil Grenville's Monument
Stanton Drew stone circles
Stoney Littleton Long Barrow
The Abbot's Fish House, Meare
The Tribunal, Glastonbury
Yarn Market, Dunster

Looking at Dunster Butter Cross & Gallox Bridge, Dunster (and having searched books, web sites etc for ideas) I'm not sure there is enough content to turn them into GAs - any thoughts on expanding them would be great.— Rod talk 15:55, 21 January 2015 (UTC)

English Hertage Lists

Hi, The Grade I & II* lists were set up for Wiki Loves Monuments (2013 I think) & were semi auto generated from (error prone) spreadsheets sent by EH & mas converted. User:Katie Chan (WMUK) and others at Wikimedia UK were involved (although I'm not sure who did the techie bits). I requested & got the Somerset related ones so if you email me through the wp system I can send them back as an attachment to an email (I don't know any other way to send them). Obviously if you are going to work on the GII* lists you might want to look at the GI Somerset lists which are all FL (start at Grade I listed buildings in Somerset ) & of course you could work your way through the others from Grade II* listed buildings in Somerset - just a warning the FLC regulars are probably going to say there are too many red links. I'd be happy to work on them with you once I've finished all those at Scheduled monuments in Somerset.— Rod talk 17:53, 4 February 2015 (UTC)

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 Australia 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 Smithsonian Institution Godot13 (submissions) had 500 points in 2014 at the end of round 1, and our very own judge, Colorado 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:

Your GA nomination of Taunton Unitarian Chapel

The article Taunton Unitarian Chapel you nominated as a good article has been placed on hold . The article is close to meeting the good article criteria, but there are some minor changes or clarifications needing to be addressed. If these are fixed within 7 days, the article will pass; otherwise it may fail. See Talk:Taunton Unitarian Chapel for things which need to be addressed.

This automated message is rather misleading, as I don't think it's close, for the reasons I've laid out on the review page. Eric Corbett 21:46, 10 March 2015 (UTC)
And don't try to bullshit me with any more with your "I won't forgive you, because I don't think there was any good faith in that statement". You're making yourself look ridiculous. If you can't write a GA then you can't, no shame in that. Eric Corbett 00:27, 11 March 2015 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Featured list candidates/2015 Cricket World Cup squads/archive1

Thank you for your constructive criticisms on Wikipedia:Featured list candidates/2015 Cricket World Cup squads/archive1, it's always good to know how to improve articles (especially when the style was just copied from the 2011 Cricket World Cup squads, which I had nothing to do with). I'm trying to implement some of the changes now. Just to clarify with the flags, there shouldn't be flags and links on the ===Country Name === headings, and no flags for the Domestic/List A team names? MOS:FLAGS confuses me a lot, so I wanted to check I'd understood you correctly. Joseph2302 (talk) 20:41, 25 March 2015 (UTC)

  • @Joseph2302: Definitely no flags in the section headings. In the table itself, I don't think there is any need for the flags; MOS:FLAGS suggests than appropriate use is "where the subject actually represents that country", which with the exception of the West Indies List A teams, they don't. To be honest, it just comes across as excessive use, and clutters the table. Harrias talk 21:15, 25 March 2015 (UTC)

Hi Harrias. I wonder if I can ask your advice, as someone rather more experienced in GA than I am! Yours is the third GA I've reviewed, but none of them have been marked with {{good article}} by Legobot. Can you tell if I've done something wrong in the process? Many thanks. Relentlessly (talk) 14:45, 30 March 2015 (UTC)
You know what, I have no idea! I've had a look through, and it looks like it's all done fine. I assume there is something at play, but I really don't know what. Legoktm might have an idea? Harrias talk 21:11, 30 March 2015 (UTC)

1829 race

Hey Harrias, I really appreciate your work on the 1829 BR, that, and the 2015 race are the only two not currently at least a GA or GAN. I was hoping to get the lot knocked off by Saturday but I don't think that'll be possible. Still, I can't really complain about 149 GAs and 3 FAs (so far) on the subject in the year. Keep up the fab work, please! The Rambling Man (talk) 16:52, 6 April 2015 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Taunton (UK Parliament constituency), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page John Mason. 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.
