The full scores for Round 2 can be seen [[Wikipedia:WikiCup/History/2024/Round 2|here]]. So far this year, competitors have gotten 18 featured articles, 22 featured lists, and 186 good articles, 76 [[WP:ITN|in the news]] credits and at least 200 [[WP:DYK|did you know]] credits. They have conducted 165 featured article reviews, as well as 399 good article reviews and peer reviews, and have added 21 articles to [[Wikipedia:featured topics|featured topics]] and [[Wikipedia:good topics|good topics]].

Remember that any content promoted after 28 April but before the start of Round 3 can be claimed during Round 3, which starts on 1 May at 00:00 (UTC). 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]].

== Pending suspension of administrative permissions due to insufficient activity ==


[[File:Information.svg|25px|alt=Information icon]] Established [[Wikipedia:Administrators#Procedural removal for inactive administrators|policy]] provides for the removal of the administrative permissions of users who have made fewer than 100 edits over a 60-month period. Your administrative permissions will be removed&#32;if you do not return to the required activity level before the beginning of August 2024. 

Inactive administrators are encouraged to engage with the project in earnest rather than to make token edits to avoid loss of administrative permissions. Resources and support for re-engaging with the project are available at [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Editor Retention/administrators]]. If you do not intend to re-engage with the project in the foreseeable future, please consider voluntarily resigning your administrative permissions by making a request at [[Wikipedia:Bureaucrats' noticeboard|the bureaucrats' noticeboard]].

== Invitation to participate in a research ==

Hello,

The Wikimedia Foundation is conducting a survey of Wikipedians to better understand what draws administrators to contribute to Wikipedia, and what affects administrator retention. We will use this research to improve experiences for Wikipedians, and address common problems and needs. We have identified you as a good candidate for this research, and would greatly appreciate your participation in this '''[https://wikimediafoundation.limesurvey.net/962595?lang=en anonymous survey]'''.

You do not have to be an Administrator to participate.

The survey should take around 10-15 minutes to complete. You may read more about the study on its [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Research:Wikipedia Administrator Recruitment, Retention, and Attrition|Meta page]] and view its [[wmf:Special:MyLanguage/Legal:Administrator Experiences 2024 Survey Privacy Statement|privacy statement]] .

Please find our contact on the project Meta page if you have any questions or concerns.

Kind Regards,

[[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Research|WMF Research Team]]

== Welcome to the 2025 WikiCup! ==

Happy New Year and Happy New WikiCup! The 2025 competition has just begun and all article creators, expanders, improvers and reviewers are welcome to take part. Even if you are a novice editor, we hope the WikiCup will give you a chance to improve your editing skills as you go. If you have already signed up, your submissions page can be found '''[[Wikipedia:WikiCup|here]]'''. If you have not yet signed up, you can '''[[Wikipedia:WikiCup/2025 signups|add your name here]]''' and the judges will set up your submissions page ready for you to take part. Any questions on the scoring, rules or anything else should be directed to one of the judges, or posted to the [[Wikipedia talk:WikiCup|WikiCup talk page]]. 

For the 2025 WikiCup, we've implemented [[Wikipedia:WikiCup/Scoring#What's changed from last year?|several changes]] to the scoring system. The highest-ranking contestants will now receive [[Wikipedia:WikiCup/Scoring#Tournament points|tournament points]] at the end of each round, and final rankings are decided by the number of tournament points each contestant has. If you're busy and can't sign up in January, don't worry: Signups are now open throughout the year. To make things fairer for latecomers, the lowest-scoring contestants will no longer be eliminated at the end of each round.

The first round will end on 26 February. The judges for the WikiCup this year are: {{User4|Cwmhiraeth}}, {{User4|Epicgenius}}, {{User4|Frostly}}, {{User4|Guerillero}} and {{User4|Lee Vilenski}}. Good luck! <small>If you wish to start or stop receiving this newsletter, please feel free to add or remove your name from  [[Wikipedia:WikiCup/Newsletter/Send]].</small> [[User:MediaWiki message delivery|MediaWiki message delivery]] ([[User talk:MediaWiki message delivery|talk]]) 00:14, 1 January 2025 (UTC)

== WikiCup 2025 March newsletter ==

The first round of the 2025 WikiCup ended on 26 February. As a reminder, we are no longer disqualifying the lowest-scoring contestants; everyone who competed in round 1 will advance to round 2 unless they have withdrawn or been banned from Wikipedia. Instead, the contestants with the highest round-point totals now receive [[Wikipedia:WikiCup/Scoring#Tournament points|tournament points]] at the end of each round. Unlike the [[Wikipedia:WikiCup#Key|round points in the main WikiCup table]], which are reset at the end of each round, tournament points are carried over between rounds and can only be earned if a competitor is among the top 16 round-point scorers. [[Wikipedia:WikiCup/History/2025/Tournament points table|This table]] shows all competitors who have received tournament points so far. 

Round 1 was very competitive compared with previous years; two contestants scored more than 1,000 round points, and the top 16 contestants all scored more than 500 round points. The following competitors scored more than 800 round points:

* {{Wikipedia:WikiCup/Participant16|Gog the Mild}} with 1,168 round points, mainly from 4 [[Wikipedia:featured articles|featured articles]] and 4 [[Wikipedia:good articles|good articles]] on old military history, in addition to an assortment of GA and FA reviews.
* {{Wikipedia:WikiCup/Participant16|Generalissima}} with 1,095 round points, mainly from 2 FAs, 2 [[Wikipedia:featured lists|featured lists]], 8 GAs, and 16 [[Wikipedia:Did you know|Did You Know]] articles mainly on historical topics.
* {{Wikipedia:WikiCup/Participant16|BeanieFan11}}, with 866 round points from 20 GAs, 23 DYKs, and 2 [[Wikipedia:in the news|In the News]] articles primarily about athletes.
* {{Wikipedia:WikiCup/Participant16|Sammi Brie}}, with 846 round points from 16 GAs about radio and TV stations, 45 GA reviews, and 3 DYKs.
* {{Wikipedia:WikiCup/Participant16|Hey man im josh}}, with 816 round points from 5 FLs about sports and Olympic topics, 46 FL reviews, 3 ITN articles, and a large number of bonus points.
* {{Wikipedia:WikiCup/Participant16|MaranoFan}}, with 815 round points primarily from 3 FAs and 1 GA about music, in addition to 9 article reviews.

The full scores for round 1 can be seen [[Wikipedia:WikiCup/History/2025/Round 1|here]]. During this round, contestants have claimed 18 featured articles, 26 featured lists, 1 featured-topic article, 197 good articles, 38 good-topic articles and more than 100 Did You Know articles. In addition, competitors have worked on 23 In the News articles, and they have conducted nearly 550 reviews.

Remember that any content promoted after 26 February but before the start of Round 2 can be claimed in Round 2, which begins on 1 March. 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.

== MLB records ==

Hi James, I came across a few discrepancies (likely due to recent negro league stats addition into mlb record books) in a few articles and I’m not sure what to believe. In [[List of Major League Baseball career slugging percentage leaders]], it mentions [[Josh Gibson]]'s single season record in the lead, but he is nowhere to be found on the list and on top of it baseball reference does not include his single season record on their site (see [https://www.baseball-reference.com/leaders/slugging_perc_career.shtml here]). The same goes for [[List of Major League Baseball career OPS leaders]] with Gibson not even mentioned in the lead. Additionally, [[Barry Bonds]]' page still shows his single season slugging percentage record when again Josh Gibson is the record holder and strangely enough, baseball reference has him listed as such this time (see [https://www.baseball-reference.com/leaders/slugging_perc_season.shtml here]). Let me know your thoughts, thanks. [[User:GOAT Bones231012|GOAT Bones231012]] ([[User talk:GOAT Bones231012|talk]]) 07:27, 25 April 2025 (UTC)

== WikiCup 2025 May newsletter ==

The second round of the 2025 WikiCup ended on 28 April at 23:59 UTC. To reiterate what we said in the previous newsletter, we are no longer disqualifying contestants based on how many points (now known as round points) they received. Instead, the contestants with the highest round-point totals now receive [[Wikipedia:WikiCup/Scoring#Tournament points|tournament points]] at the end of each round. These tournament points are carried over between rounds, and can only be earned if a competitor is among the top 16 round-point scorers at the end of each round. [[Wikipedia:WikiCup/History/2025/Tournament points table|This table]] shows all competitors who have received tournament points so far. Everyone who competed in round 2 will advance to round 3 unless they have withdrawn or been banned. 

Round 2 was quite competitive. Four contestants scored more than 1,000 round points, and eight scored more than 500 points (including one who has withdrawn). The following competitors scored at least 800 points:

* {{Wikipedia:WikiCup/Participant16|BeanieFan11}} with 1,233 round points from 24 [[Wikipedia:good articles|good articles]], 28 [[Wikipedia:Did you know|Did you know]] articles, and one [[WP:In the news|In the news]] nomination, mainly about athletes and politicians
* {{Wikipedia:WikiCup/Participant16|Thebiguglyalien}} with 1,127 round points, almost entirely from two high-multiplier [[Wikipedia:Featured articles|featured articles]] on [[Black Widow (Natasha Romanova)]] and [[Grace Coolidge]], in addition to two GAs and two reviews
* {{Wikipedia:WikiCup/Participant16|History6042}} with 1,088 round points from four [[WP:featured lists|featured lists]] about Michelin-starred restaurants, nine good articles and a [[WP:Good topic|good topic]] mostly on Olympic-related subjects, seven ITN articles, and dozens of reviews
* {{Wikipedia:WikiCup/Participant16|Gog the Mild}} with 1,085 round points from three FAs, one GA, and four DYKs on military history, as well as 18 reviews
* {{Wikipedia:WikiCup/Participant16|Arconning}} with 887 round points, mostly from four FLs, six GAs, and seven DYKs on Olympic topics, along with more than two dozen reviews

In addition, we would like to recognize {{Wikipedia:WikiCup/Participant16|Generalissima}} for her efforts; she scored 801 round points but withdrew before the end of the round.

The full scores for round 2 can be seen [[Wikipedia:WikiCup/History/2025/Round 2|here]]. During this round, contestants have claimed 13 featured articles, 20 featured lists, 4 featured-topic articles, 138 good articles, 7 good-topic articles, and more than 100 Did You Know articles. In addition, competitors have worked on 19 In the News articles, and they have conducted nearly 300 reviews.

Remember that any content promoted after 28 April but before the start of Round 3 can be claimed in Round 3. 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! <small>If you wish to start or stop receiving this newsletter, please feel free to add or remove your name from  [[Wikipedia:WikiCup/Newsletter/Send]].</small> [[User:MediaWiki message delivery|MediaWiki message delivery]] ([[User talk:MediaWiki message delivery|talk]]) 01:03, 29 April 2025 (UTC)
