Your GA nomination of C. O. BrocatoThe article C. O. Brocato you nominated as a good article has been placed on hold rfcHey, BF11! At the risk of showing my lack of completely reading the entire thread at the VP, I feel like your objection is to wasting the research/work, however nominal, that Lugnuts did do? Just as a general question, would listifying or redirecting or merging such stubs be a solution you could live with? Valereee (talk) 17:48, 1 September 2023 (UTC)

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
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. If you are concerned that your nomination will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews. It would be helpful if this list could be cleared of any items no longer relevant. 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. If you wish to start or stop receiving this newsletter, please feel free to add or remove your name from Wikipedia:WikiCup/Newsletter/Send. I will be standing down as a judge after the end of the contest. I think the Cup encourages productive editors to improve their contributions to Wikipedia and I hope that someone else will step up to take over the running of the Cup.

Your GA nomination of Keith HartwigThe article Keith Hartwig you nominated as a good article has passed Your GA nomination of Chet WintersThe article Chet Winters you nominated as a good article has passed New pages patrol newsletterHello BeanieFan11,  Backlog update: At the time of this message, there are 11,300 articles and 15,600 redirects awaiting review. This is the highest backlog in a long time. Please help out by doing additional reviews! October backlog elimination drive: A one-month backlog drive for October will start in one week! Barnstars will be awarded based on the number of articles and redirects patrolled. Articles will earn 4x as many points compared to redirects. You can sign up here. PageTriage code upgrades: Upgrades to the PageTriage code, initiated by the NPP open letter in 2022 and actioned by the WMF Moderator Tools Team in 2023, are ongoing. More information can be found here. As part of this work, the Special:NewPagesFeed now has a new version in beta! The update leaves the NewPagesFeed appearance and function mostly identical to the old one, but updates the underlying code, making it easier to maintain and helping make sure the extension is not decommissioned due to maintenance issues in the future. You can try out the new Special:NewPagesFeed here - it will replace the current version soon. Notability tip: Professors can meet WP:PROF #1 by having their academic papers be widely cited by their peers. When reviewing professor articles, it is a good idea to find their Google Scholar or Scopus profile and take a look at their h-index and number of citations. As a very rough rule of thumb, for most fields, articles on people with a h-index of twenty or more, a first-authored paper with more than a thousand citations, or multiple papers each with more than a hundred citations are likely to be kept at AfD. Reviewing tip: If you would like like a second opinion on your reviews or simply want another new page reviewer by your side when patrolling, we recommend pair reviewing! This is where two reviewers use Discord voice chat and screen sharing to communicate with each other while reviewing the same article simultaneously. This is a great way to learn and transfer knowledge. Reminders:
MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 16:45, 22 September 2023 (UTC) Your GA nomination of Terry RandolphHi there, I'm pleased to inform you that I've begun reviewing the article Terry Randolph you nominated for GA-status according to the criteria. "...have every NFL player with an article"Greetings. I happened upon your constructive, source-providing contribution to an AfC and checked out your page. You seem to be doing a lot of work and good work too. Now, you do not have to answer this, of course, but I'm curious about the statement that your objective is to "have every NFL player with an article". Statistically, it seems rather improbable that each and every NFL player in history is Wiki-notable. Do you believe otherwise, perhaps specifically for NFL? If not, how will you go about meeting your objective? Thanks in advance. And take care. -The Gnome (talk) 14:19, 23 September 2023 (UTC)
Tips on getting QPQs done fasterI don't love doing QPQs myself, so I totally get it. One way I've been able to get them done lately is by not really thinking about them as QPQs at all, but rather looking through DYKN whenever I get a chance -- no matter what I have in the pipeline -- and seeing if there's anything that stands out, positively or negative. The latter is important too -- there are a lot of nominations that have serious queries like BLP issues, or where the article itself is alright but the hook might need work, and if I find I'm starting to have an opinion about a nomination I generally take the shot to review it. I keep a list in my sandbox of everything I've reviewed but haven't used yet, so when it's time to nominate something I just pull it from there, not needing to remember to fill in a QPQ later. QPQs never expire, so you can keep hold of them as long as you need. You can also search your templatespace contributions to see if there's anything you don't recognize that looks like it might be an unused credit -- sometimes you'd be surprised. Another thing that's been really great is keeping track of my 'QPQ chains' -- who reviewed in a chain before me, how long it kept going afterwards, etc. It's surprisingly fun to pick out how long ago something started, how long it kept running, what patterns you can spot (people who review one another, specific subject areas, etc) -- and sometimes you find something straight-up insane.

Sorry about that one. When I checked, it did mention a championship, but without any references. It can be difficult for non-US contributors to understand the ins and outs of US sports, so his significance needs to be more clearly stated.
