WikiCup 2015 September newsletter

The finals for the 2015 Wikicup has now begun! Congrats to the 8 contestants who have survived to the finals, and well done and thanks to everyone who took part in rounds 3 and 4.

In round 3, we had a three-way tie for qualification among the wildcard contestants, so we had 34 competitors. The leader was by far Casliber (submissions) in Group B, who earned 1496 points. Although 913 of these points were bonus points, he submitted 15 articles in the DYK category. Second place overall was Coemgenus (submissions) at 864 points, who although submitted just 2 FAs for 400 points, earned double that amount for those articles in bonus points. Everyone who moved forward to Round 4 earned at least 100 points.

The scores required to move onto the semifinals were impressive; the lowest scorer to move onto the finals was 407, making this year's Wikicup as competitive as it's always been. Our finalists, ordered by round 4 score, are:

1. Cas Liber (submissions), who is competing in his sixth consecutive Wikicup final, again finished the round in first place, with an impressive 1666 points in Pool B. Casliber writes about the natural sciences, including ornithology, botany and astronomy. A large bulk of his points this round were bonus points.
2. Godot13 (submissions) (FP bonus points), second place both in Pool B and overall, earned the bulk of his points with FPs, mostly depicting currency.
3. Cwmhiraeth (submissions), first in Pool A, came in third. His specialty is natural science articles; in Round 4, he mostly submitted articles about insects and botany. Five out of the six of the GAs he submitted were level-4 vital articles.
4. Harrias (submissions), second in Pool A, took fourth overall. He tends to focus on articles about cricket and military history, specifically the 1640s First English Civil War.
5. West Virginian (submissions), from Pool A, was our highest-scoring wildcard. West Virginia tends to focus on articles about the history of (what for it!) the U.S. state of West Virginia.
6. Rodw (submissions), from Pool A, likes to work on articles about British geography and places. Most of his points this round were earned from two impressive accomplishments: a GT about Scheduled monuments in Somerset and a FT about English Heritage properties in Somerset.
7. Rationalobserver (submissions), from Pool B, came in seventh overall. RO earned the majority of her points from GARs and PRs, many of which were earned in the final hours of the round.
8. Calvin999 (submissions), also from Pool B, who was competing with RO for the final two spots in the final hours, takes the race for most GARs and PRs—48.

The intense competition between RO and Calvin999 will continue into the finals. They're both eligible for the Newcomers Trophy, given for the first time in the Wikicup; whoever makes the most points will win it.

Good luck to the finalists; the judges are sure that the competition will be fierce!

I need help

I am the owner of a businesses. I never asked for my business to be listed in Wikipedia. I have been under attack from something called "I like horses" This person is nameless and faceless and continues to spread lies about my business on the site. No matter how many times I make changes and play the silly game, its changed again. She says my business was sold to someone I have never heard of. I have provided documented proof to her and one of your senior watchers about this. And now I have been threatened by one of them. Warning me I should not object to this tampering with my reputation because I will face consequences. From who? Who are these people. Who are they accountable too? What business have they ever run? Why are they allowed to hide behind wikepedias name? I have given many contributions to this operation over the years believing it to be a worthy enterprise. Now I feel like a fool. I found you because it says I can appeal to some administration. No more threats PLEASE. Just names thank you. Please let me know how I may lodge a complaint about this. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 63.138.96.6 (talk) 04:18, 30 September 2015 (UTC)

They are still lying about me. What Do I have to do to stop this WSVI - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WSVI Wikipedia WSVI is an ABC-affiliated, full-power television station licensed to Christiansted, St. Croix, and serving as the network's affiliate for the entire insular area of the ...

JVC Broadcasting does not claim it owns my business. Who are these people who do whatever they want on Wikipedia?

Since nobody is prepared to help me, I would like all the content in my site taken down. There is much that is false. I have asked that the false information about ownership be removed. Its now worked its way into Google.

I have been threatened. You are using my trademarks without my permission and are infringing. My call letters have been denigrated by these false postings. I once thought of Wikipedia as an honorable institution. I have been mistaken. Please remove my page altogether.
