Hi
[edit]I noticed you reverted a few of my edits and left a message on my talk page. I'm not sure what I did wrong. I certainly didn't intentionally vandalize. Can you help me understand what I did wrong? Thanks. Breckbreaker (talk) 01:06, 11 December 2022 (UTC)
- @Breckbreaker Oh! I didn't want to revert all your edits, just the latest one. Anyway, I've restored, you keep working. Happy editing! (and sorry for the interruption) Aishik Rehman (talk) 01:12, 11 December 2022 (UTC)
- Am I in some sort of trouble? I didn't mean to do anything wrong. Breckbreaker (talk) 01:12, 11 December 2022 (UTC)
- @Breckbreaker Don't worry! No one is in trouble anywhere, keep working. You can ping me if you need any help. Aishik Rehman (talk) 01:16, 11 December 2022 (UTC)
Hello
[edit]Hi! I’m relatively new on Wikipedia, and I’m still learning on how to edit pages. I’ve seen you reversed my edits on the page Talbert Wesley Swan II because I didn’t put a source explaining my edits.
As a source, can I put a link to the Twitter page of the subject? Just by visiting 10 minutes his Twitter page, we can clearly see that the edits I have made are his views and he doesn’t try to hide them.
Thank you and have a good day! FaChol (talk) 16:50, 11 December 2022 (UTC)

[edit]Hello. Regarding the recent revert you made to Infrastructure: you may already know about them, but you might find Wikipedia:Template index/User talk namespace useful. After a revert, these can be placed on the user's talk page to let them know you considered their edit inappropriate, and also direct new users towards the sandbox. They can also be used to give a stern warning to a vandal when they've been previously warned. Thank you. RPI2026F1 (talk) 17:13, 11 December 2022 (UTC)
Thanatotranscriptome
[edit]Hi! I saw that you reverted a change to Thanatotranscriptome – specifically, removing the copy edit template. Just wanted to let you know, a couple days ago I performed a significant copy edit of this page, in addition to streamlining the sections and adding some citations. I returned today to check whether I missed anything before removing the template. So it may have appeared that I removed the template for no reason, but it was really in the context of having recently made these changes. Thanks! Genly Ai (talk) 17:42, 11 December 2022 (UTC)

Why?
[edit]Why are you creating useless wikidata entries for taxonomic templates? I'm getting constantly pinged, which is extremely irritating. There's no utility to having these pages whatsoever, and you're importing the taxonomic templates into Bengali Wikipedia without bothering to translate the articles they accompany, which is a complete waste of time (e.g [1].

Special:WantedTemplates
[edit]Hi, I have been cleaning up Special:WantedTemplates and noticed that your javascript and css pages are showing up in Special:WhatLinksHere/Template:User info/styles.css and Special:WhatLinksHere/Template:Dir. This is because these templates do not exist. Could you fix or remove these templates so the page will no longer appear Special:WantedTemplates? Also, it appears as though neither of these pages are javascript or css pages, so using the .js and .css suffix isn't helping with the context highlighting. Thanks in advance for your help!

WikiCup 2023 March newsletter
[edit]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:
- Unlimitedlead with 1205 points, a WikiCup newcomer, led the field with two featured articles on historical figures and several featured article candidate reviews.
- Epicgenius was in second place with 789 points; a seasoned WikiCup competitor he specialises in buildings and locations in New York.
- 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.
- TheJoebro64, another WikiCup newcomer, came next with 600 points gained from two featured articles on video games.
- 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 LunaEatsTuna, Thebiguglyalien, Sammi Brie, Trainsandotherthings, Lee Vilenski, Juxlos, Unexpectedlydian, SounderBruce, Kosack, BennyOnTheLoose and 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! 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 and Cwmhiraeth.

That's a lot of biographies created in the effort to close the gender gap. Happy 8th Anniversary!

[edit]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
- Epicgenius, with 2173 points topping the scores, gained mainly from a featured article, 38 good articles and 9 DYKs. He was followed by
- Sammi Brie, with 1575 points, gained mainly from a featured article, 28 good articles and 50 good article reviews. Close behind was
- 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.

WikiCup 2024 March newsletter

Everyone with at least 30 points moved on to Round 2, the highest number of points required to advance to the second round since 2014. Due to a six-way tie for the 64th-place spot, 67 contestants have qualified for Round 2.
The following scorers in Round 1 all scored more than 300 points:
- Generalissima (submissions), who has 916 points mostly from one FA on John Littlejohn (preacher), 15 GAs, and 16 DYKs on a variety of topics including New Zealand coinage and Inuit figures, in addition to seven reviews
- Vami_IV (submissions), who has 790 points from two FAs on Felix M. Warburg House and Doom (2016 video game), two GAs, one DYK, and 11 reviews

In this newsletter, the judges would like to pay a special tribute to Vami_IV (submissions), who unfortunately passed away this February. At the time of his death, he was the second-highest-scoring competitor. Outside the WikiCup, he had eight other featured articles, five A-class articles, eight other good articles, and two Four Awards. Vami also wrote an essay on completionism, a philosophy in which he deeply believed. If you can, please join us in honoring his memory by improving one of the articles on his to-do list.
Remember that any content promoted after 27 February 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 Needed. If you want to help out with the WikiCup, feel free to review one of the nominations listed on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews Needed. Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages. Good luck!
