== Welcome to the 2012 WikiCup ==

Hello, and welcome to the [[Wikipedia:WikiCup|2012 WikiCup]]! The competition officially began at the start of 2012 (UTC), and so you are free to claim any content from after that time. Your submission page, where you must note any content for which you wish to claim points, can be found '''[[Wikipedia:WikiCup/History/2012/Submissions/Assassin&#39;s Creed|here]]''', and formatting instructions can be found in hidden comments on the page. A bot will then update the main table, which can be seen on the WikiCup page. The full rules for what will and will not be awarded points can be found at [[Wikipedia:WikiCup/Scoring]]. There's also a section on that page listing the changes that have been made to the rules this year, so that experienced participants can get up-to-date in a few seconds. One point of which we must remind everyone; you may ''only'' claim points for content upon which you have done significant work, and which you have nominated, ''in 2012''. For instance, articles written or good article reviews started in 2011 ''are not'' eligible for points.

This round will last until late February, and signups will remain open until the middle of February. If you know of anyone who may like to take part, please let them know about the comeptition; the more the merrier! At the end of this round, the top 64 scorers will progress to the next round, where their scores will reset, and they will be split into pools. Note that, by default, you have been added to [[Wikipedia:WikiCup/Newsletter/Send|our newsletter list]]; we will be in contact at the end of every month with news. You're welcome to remove yourself from this list if you do not wish to hear from us. Conversely, those interested in following the competition are more than welcome to add themselves to the list. Please direct any questions towards the judges, or on the WikiCup talk page. Good luck!

== WikiCup 2012 January newsletter ==

[[File:Trophy.png|right]]
WikiCup 2012 is off to a flying start. At the time of writing, we have 112 contestants; comparable to last year, but slightly fewer than 2010. [[Wikipedia:WikiCup/2012 signups|Signups]] will remain open for another week, after which time they will be closed for this year. Our currrent far-away leader is {{Wikipedia:WikiCup/Participant3|Grapple X}}, due mostly to his work on a slew of good articles about ''[[The X-Files]]''; there remain many such articles waiting to be reviewed at [[WP:GAC|good article candidates]]. Second place is currently held by {{Wikipedia:WikiCup/Participant3|Ruby2010}}, whose points come mostly from good articles about television episodes, although good article reviews, did you knows and an article about a baroness round out the score. In third place is {{Wikipedia:WikiCup/Participant3|Jivesh boodhun}}, who has scored 200 points for his work on a single featured article, as well as points for work on others, mostly in the area of pop music. In all, nine users have 100 or more points. However, at the other end of the scale, there are still dozens of participants who are yet to score. Please remember to update your submission pages promptly!

The 64 highest scoring participants will advance to round 2 in a month's time. There, they will be split into eight random groups of eight. The score needed to reach the next round is not at all clear; last year, 8 points guaranteed a place. The year before, 20.

A few participants and their work warrant a mention for achieving "firsts" in this competition.
*{{Wikipedia:WikiCup/Participant3|12george1}} was the first to score, with his good article review of ''[[Illinois v. McArthur]]''.
*{{Wikipedia:WikiCup/Participant3|12george1}} was also the first to score points for an article, thanks to his work on [[Hurricane Debby (1982)]]- now a good article. Tropical storms have featured heavily in the Cup, and good articles currently have a relatively fast turnaround time for reviews.
*{{Wikipedia:WikiCup/Participant3|Sp33dyphil}} was the first to score points for a did you know, with [[Russian submarine K-114 Tula|Russian submarine K-114 ''Tula'']]. Military history is another subject which has seen a lot of Cup activity.
*{{Wikipedia:WikiCup/Participant3|Sp33dyphil}} is also the first person to successfully claim bonus points. ''[[Terminator 2: Judgment Day]]'' is now a good article, and was eligible for bonus points because the subject was covered on more than 20 other Wikipedias at the start of the competition. It is fantastic to see bonus points being claimed so early!
*{{Wikipedia:WikiCup/Participant3|Speciate}} was the first to score points for an In the News entry, with ''[[Paedophryne amauensis]]''. The lead image from the article was also used on the main page for a time, and it's certainly eye-catching!
*{{Wikipedia:WikiCup/Participant3|Jivesh boodhun}} was the first to score points for a featured article, and is, at the moment, the only competitor to claim for one. The article, [[Halo (Beyoncé Knowles song)|"Halo" (Beyoncé Knowles song)]], was also worth double points because of its wide coverage. While this is an article that Jivesh and others have worked on for some time, it is undeniable that he has put considerable work into it this year, pushing it over the edge.

We are yet to see any featured lists, featured topics or good topics, but this is unsurprising; firstly, the nomination processes with each of these can take some time, and, secondly, it can take a considerable amount of time to work content to this level. In a similar vein, we have seen only one featured article. The requirement that content must have been worked on this year to be eligible means that we did not expect to see these at the start of the competition. No points have been claimed for featured portals or pictures, but these are not content types which are often claimed; the former has never made a big impact on the WikiCup, while the latter has not done so since 2009's competition.

A quick rules clarification before the regular notices: If you are concerned that another user is claiming points inappropriately, please contact a judge to take a look at the article. Competitors policing one another can create a bad atmosphere, and may lead to inconsistencies and mistakes. Rest assured that we, the judges, ''are'' making an effort to check submissions, but it is possible that we will miss something. On a loosely related note: If you are concerned that your nomination, be it at good article candidates, a featured process or anywhere else, will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on [[Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews]]. However, please remember to continue to offer reviews at GAC, 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, or by email. Good luck! <small>If you wish to start receiving or stop receiving this newsletter, please feel free to add or remove yourself from [[Wikipedia:WikiCup/Newsletter/Send]].</small> [[User:J Milburn|J Milburn]] and [[User:The ed17|The ed17]] 23:57, 31 January 2012 (UTC)

:Thanks for noticing that but I think they should not be merged as Kalma Chowk is a junction or a square but Kalma Chowk Flyover is an overpass or an bridge over the [[Ferozepur Road]].

:: Yes, I understand, but the issue is that Kalma Chowk is a lot older (it was built in the 1980s) while the flyover is recently built. Both are synonymous. How about redirecting [[Kalma Chowk]] into [[Kalma Chowk Flyover]]? The article will be mainly about the overpass but also explain in part that it is built over the Kalma Chowk square. Having two seperate articles is redundant when both could be explained in just one article. Both articles are also stubs, so better to have one major article.

== Request for a look at my attempt to wikify [[List of products by Dapol]] ==

Hey, there. I've been doing a little bit of wikifying of some articles and was wondering if you would have a look at [[List of products by Dapol]] and let me know if there's any more wikifying I could do to this article. I have no knowledge of the topic, so can't really add any content or even judge the existing content. Also, I have no interest in the topic, so I don't have much motivation to research a lot to add any more. I've done some extensive research already to find the accurate links I've added.

If you could have a look at the article and leave some advice on the [[Talk:List of products by Dapol|talk page]], it would be much appreciated. :) [[User:Matt Heard|Matt]] ([[User talk:Matt Heard|talk]]) 09:24, 27 February 2012 (UTC)

==Disambiguation link notification==

Hi. When you recently edited [[Huang Yan (artist)]], you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page [[Changchun University]] ([[tools:~dispenser/cgi-bin/dablinks.py/Huang_Yan_%28artist%29|check to confirm]]&nbsp;|&nbsp;[[tools:~dispenser/cgi-bin/dab_solver.py/Huang_Yan_%28artist%29|fix with Dab solver]]). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. <small>Read the [[User:DPL bot/Dablink notification FAQ|FAQ]]{{*}} Join us at the [[Wikipedia:Disambiguation pages with links|DPL WikiProject]].</small>

== WikiCup 2012 February newsletter ==

[[File:Trophy.png|right]]
Round 1 is already over! The 64 highest scorers have progressed to round 2. Our highest scorer was {{Wikipedia:WikiCup/Participant3|Grapple X}}, again thanks mostly to a swathe of good articles on ''The X-Files''. In second place was {{Wikipedia:WikiCup/Participant3|Tigerboy1966}}, thanks an impressive list of did you knows about racehorses. Both scored over 400 points. Following behind with over 300 points were {{Wikipedia:WikiCup/Participant3|Ruby2010}}, {{Wikipedia:WikiCup/Participant3|Cwmhiraeth}}, {{Wikipedia:WikiCup/Participant3|Miyagawa}} and {{Wikipedia:WikiCup/Participant3|Casliber}}. February also saw the competition's first featured list: [[List of colleges and universities in North Dakota]], from {{Wikipedia:WikiCup/Participant3|Ruby2010}}. At the other end of the scale, 11 points was enough to secure a place in this round, and some contestants with 10 points made it into the round on a tiebreaker. This is higher than the 8 points that were needed last year, but lower than the 20 points required the year before. The number of points required to progress to round 3 will be significantly higher.

The remaining contestants have been split into 8 pools of 8, named A through H. Round two will finish in two months time on 28 April, when the two highest scorers in each pool, as well as the next 16 highest scorers, will progress to round 3. The pools were entirely random, so while some pools may end up being more competitive than others, this is by chance rather than design.

The judges would like to point out two quick rules reminders. First, any content promoted during the interim period (that is, on or after 27 February) is eligible for points in round 2. Second, any content worked on significantly this ''year'' is eligible for points if promoted in this ''round''. On a related note, if you are concerned that your nomination, be it at good article candidates, a featured process or anywhere else, will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on [[Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews]]. However, please remember to continue to offer reviews at GAC, FAC and all the other pages that require them to prevent any backlogs which would otherwise be caused by the Cup. As ever, questions are welcome on [[Wikipedia talk:WikiCup]] and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. Good luck! <small>If you wish to start receiving or stop receiving this newsletter, please feel free to add or remove yourself from [[Wikipedia:WikiCup/Newsletter/Send]].</small> [[User:J Milburn|J Milburn]] ([[User talk:J Milburn|talk]] &bull; [[Special:Emailuser/J Milburn|email]]) and [[User:The ed17|The ed17]] ([[User talk:The ed17|talk]] &bull; [[Special:Emailuser/The ed17|email]]) 23:51, 29 February 2012 (UTC)

==Election article titles==
Hello Rafhan. Just to let you know, we don't use the phrase "general elections" in those kind of article titles, as that would make it appear that there was more than one election (so it would appropriate to have "Pakistani regional elections, XXXX", as there would be elections in more than one region). I've moved all the articles back. Also, the italics in the election template are used to denote future elections.

==New Page Triage engagement strategy released==
Hey guys!

I'm dropping you a note because you filled out the New Page Patrol survey, and indicated you'd be interested in being contacted about follow-up work. This is to notify you that we've finally released both the [[WP:NPT|initial documentation]] about the project and also the [[Wikipedia:New Page Triage/Engagement strategy|engagement strategy]], which sets out how we plan to work with the community on this. Please give both a read, and leave any comments or suggestions you have on the talkpage, on ''my'' talkpage, or in my inbox - {{nospam|okeyes|wikimedia.org}}.

It's awesome to finally get to start work on this! :). [[User:Okeyes (WMF)|Okeyes (WMF)]] ([[User talk:Okeyes (WMF)|talk]]) 02:39, 3 March 2012 (UTC)

::::::I'll check the edits in a bit.  There really is nothing todo with DEFAULTSORT.  It's an area I work in and it is mostly under control.  It is also a very difficult area because of all the different ways people sort their names around the world and also when the lived.  
::::::Persondata is different.  There needs to be alot of work done in that area.  If doing just persondata, then [[Wikipedia:Persondata-o-matic]] is a very easy tool to use.  There will be an update shortly that corrects a major bug and a better way to select files to work on.  Right now, you can only choose random files.  Soon, you can import a list of names.  The names would be in the same category, say footballers.  This makes thing easier because of the familiarity of one category... you know what to look for and know what to put in.

The birth place and death place may be anywhere in the article.  If you see it, add it.  I can recognize alot of cities and what country they are located, but sometimes I have to look up the city to know what country the city is in.  The "short description" field, I also added "politician" because he was a Governor.  I usually add the description in which they were notable for.  For example, at the top, the person's information may state they are a singer and an actor.  The article may never mention anything about their acting career, so "short description=Musician".  Just use your best judgement.  BTW...  Ziya Pasha's DEFAULTSORT=Ziya Pasha.  [[Pasha]] is an honorary title given to Ottoman politicians.

In AWB, make sure you have RegexTypoFix checked.  It is not checked by default.  It checks for common spelling mistakes among other things.  You can find it under the "options" tab in the bottom middle area.

In AWB, you can save the summaries, so the next time you start up AWB, you don't have to re-enter them.  It is located under "Options" at the top and is named summaries.

Hey guys!

Thanks to all of you who have commented on the [[Wikipedia talk:New Page Triage|New Page Triage talkpage]]. If you haven't had a chance yet, check it out; we're discussing some pretty interesting ideas, both from the Foundation and the community, and moving towards implementing quite a few of them :).

In addition, on Tuesday 13th March, we're holding an [[m:IRC office hours|office hours]] session in #wikimedia-office on IRC at 19:00 UTC (11am Pacific time). If you can make it, please do; we'll have a lot of stuff to show you and talk about, including (hopefully) a timetable of when we're planning to do what. If you can't come, for whatever reason, let me know on [[User talk: Okeyes (WMF)|my talkpage]] and I'm happy to send you the logs so you can get an idea of what happened :).

== WikiProject India Tag & Assess 2012 Contest ==

Hello friends, we are a number of editors from WikiProject India have got together to assess the many thousands of articles under the stewardship of the project, and we'd love to have you, a fellow member, join us. These articles require [[WP:ASSESS|assessment]], that is, the addition of a WikiProject template to the talk page of an article, assessing it for quality and importance and adding a few extra parameters to it.

As of March 11, 2012, 07:00 UTC, WikiProject India has 95,998 articles under its stewardship. Of these 13,980 articles are completely unassessed (both for class and importance) and another 42,415 articles are unassessed for importance only. Accordingly, a [[Wikipedia:WikiProject India/Assessment/Tag & Assess 2012|Tag & Assess 2012]] drive-cum-contest has begun from March 01, 2012 to last till May 31, 2012.

If you are new to assessment, you can learn the minimum about how to evaluate from [[Wikipedia:WikiProject India/Assessment/Tag & Assess 2012/Guide - Part 1|Part One of the Assessment Guide]].
[[Wikipedia:WikiProject India/Assessment/Tag & Assess 2012/Guide - Part 2|Part Two of the Guide]] will help you learn to employ the full functionality of the talk page template, should you choose to do so.

You can sign up on the [[Wikipedia:WikiProject India/Assessment/Tag & Assess 2012|Tag & Assess page]]. There are a number of awards to be given in recognition of your efforts. Come & join us to take part in this exciting new venture. You'll learn more about India in this way.

Greetings from the [[WP:GOCE|Guild of Copy Editors]] [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Guild of Copy Editors/Backlog elimination drives/March 2012|March 2012 Backlog elimination drive]]! Here's the mid-drive newsletter.</br>

'''Participation''':
We have had 58 people sign up for this drive so far, which compares favorably with our last drive, and 27 have copy-edited at least one article. If you have signed up but have not yet copy-edited any articles, please consider doing so. Every bit helps! If you haven't signed up yet, it's not too late. [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Guild of Copy Editors/Backlog elimination drives/March 2012#Participants|Join us]]!

'''Progress report''':
Our target of completing the 2010 articles has almost been reached, with only 56 remaining of the 194 we had at the start of the drive. The last ones are always the most difficult, so thank you if you are able to help copy-edit any of the remaining articles. We have reduced the total backlog by 163 articles so far.

'''Special thanks''':
Special thanks to [[User:Stfg|Stfg]], who has been going through the backlog and doing some preliminary vetting of the articles—removing copyright violations, doing initial clean-up, and nominating some for deletion. This work has helped make the drive a more pleasant experience for all our volunteers.

Your drive coordinators – [[User:Diannaa|Dianna]] ([[User talk:Diannaa|talk]]), [[User:Stfg|Stfg]] ([[User talk:Stfg|talk]]), and [[User:Dank|Dank]] ([[User talk:Dank|talk]]){{center|1=<p><small>To discontinue receiving GOCE newsletters, please remove your name from [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Guild of Copy Editors/Mailing List|our mailing list]].</small></p>}}

==help triage some feedback==
Hey guys.

I appreciate this isn't quite what you signed up for, but I figured as people who are already pretty good at evaluating whether material is useful or not useful through Special:NewPages, you might be interested :). Over the last few months we've been developing [[WP:AFT5|the new Article Feedback Tool]], which features a free text box. it is imperative that we work out in advance what proportion of feedback is useful or not so we can adjust the design accordingly and not overwhelm you with nonsense.

This is being done through the [[Wikipedia:Article Feedback Tool/Version 5/Feedback evaluation|Feedback Evaluation System]] (FES), a tool that lets editors run through a stream of comments, selecting their value and viability, so we know what type of design should be promoted or avoided. We're about to start a new round of evaluations, beginning with an [[m:IRC office hours|office hours]] session tomorrow at 18:00 UTC. If you'd like to help preemptively kill poor feedback, come along to #wikimedia-office and we'll show you how to use the tool. If you can't make it, send me an email at {{nospam|okeyes|wikimedia.org}} or drop a note on my talkpage, and I'm happy to give you a quick walkthrough in a one-on-one session :).

All the best, [[User:Okeyes (WMF)|Okeyes (WMF)]] ([[User talk:Okeyes (WMF)|talk]]) 21:30, 20 March 2012 (UTC)

== [[Wikipedia:Proposed deletion|Proposed deletion]] of [[Rafhan]] ==
[[Image:Ambox warning yellow.svg|left|link=|48px|]]

The article [[Rafhan]] has been [[Wikipedia:Proposed deletion|proposed for deletion]]&#32; because of the following concern:
:'''Does not appear to be a notable given name, and cannot even be considered a disambiguation page as there are no links to people with this name and indeed no pages on Wikipedia of people with this name.'''

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be [[WP:DEL#REASON|deleted for any of several reasons]].

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{Tlc|proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your [[Help:edit summary|edit summary]] or on [[Talk:Rafhan|the article's talk page]].

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{Tlc|proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the [[Wikipedia:Proposed deletion|proposed deletion process]], but other [[Wikipedia:deletion process|deletion process]]es exist. In particular, the [[Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion|speedy deletion]] process can result in deletion without discussion, and [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion|articles for deletion]] allows discussion to reach [[Wikipedia:Consensus|consensus]] for deletion.<!-- Template:Proposed deletion notify -->

== Help an editor out ==

Assassin, could you help an editor out.  He is alot like you when you first started... very eager and making mistakes.  Plus, he is Pakistani, so hopefully there are some common things between you two... <small>Pakistan is a "small" country, you are bound to know each other. {{=)}} </small>  I've asked him to contact before, but just in case, he is [[User:Cool Angel]]. [[User:Bgwhite|Bgwhite]] ([[User talk:Bgwhite|talk]]) 06:08, 28 March 2012 (UTC)
:Cool Angel was just block for creating sockpuppet accounts.  Seems they were creating accounts to influence an AfD.  The admin who did the block said the person has been repeatedly blocked in the past, but didn't give any evidence.  I've asked for clarification.  [[User:Bgwhite|Bgwhite]] ([[User talk:Bgwhite|talk]]) 17:54, 28 March 2012 (UTC)
::The admin just responded.   The sockpuppet report hasn't been put under the main sockpuppet account yet.  Everything will be under [[Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Sabeeel43]] once the latest report updated.  [[User:Bgwhite|Bgwhite]] ([[User talk:Bgwhite|talk]]) 18:02, 28 March 2012 (UTC)
:::Until the two SPI cases are merged, see [[Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Cool Angel]]. [[User:JohnCD|JohnCD]] ([[User talk:JohnCD|talk]]) 20:12, 28 March 2012 (UTC)
::::Oh sorry Bgwhite, I was in my home town last days so couldn't use WP.
