DYK for Kodandera M. Cariappa On 27 February 2017, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Kodandera M. Cariappa, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Kodandera M. Cariappa is one of only two Indian Army officers to hold the five-star rank of field marshal? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Kodandera M. Cariappa. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, Kodandera M. Cariappa), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

It would have been 5 points, but when a late entrant was permitted to join the contest in February, a promise was made that his inclusion would not result in the exclusion of any other competitor. To achieve this, the six entrants that had the lowest positive score of 4 points have been added to the 64 people who otherwise would have qualified. As a result, some of the groups have nine contestants rather than eight. Our top four scorers in round 1 were:
The largest number of DYKs have been submitted by Vivvt and The C of E, who each claimed for seven, and MBlaze Lightning achieved eight articles at ITN. Carbrera and Peacemaker67 each claimed for five GAs and Krishna Chaitanya Velaga was well out in front for GARs, having reviewed 32. No featured pictures, featured topics or good topics yet, but we have achieved three featured articles and a splendid total of fifty good articles. So, on to the second round. Remember that any content promoted after the end of round 1 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 equally. If you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is a good article candidate, a featured process, or anything else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews. If you want to help out with the WikiCup, please do your bit to help 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!

Nomination of Anuradha T.K. for deletionHi, Krishna Chaitanya Velaga. Thanks for actively watching my articles. I understand your concerns about the article I created as part of Women in Red. If you feel that the article fails the General Notability Guidelines, help by improving it since it is important to have articles on women in science. I believe that deleting only takes us back to square one where there is a red link(again), whereas improving it would take us forward as a community. ManasaRao (talk) 06:09, 14 March 2017 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for April 20Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Param Vir Chakra, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Wartime. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

By the way there are ongoing discussions on the talk. The first topic is Anzulovic, a source that was deleted by nominator even though they needed to find an agreement before doing so. They seem to refuse to seek an agreement on talk and are near an edit war. The article is continuously a target of vandalism and edit warring by IPs linked to a blocked editor. The reason is disagreement on use of Anzulovic as a source. The other topic is more complicated and can be read on the talk page of article. Regards. Ktrimi991 (talk) 11:26, 22 April 2017 (UTC)

Hello KCVelaga,
Since rolling out the right in November, just 6 months ago, we now have 822 reviewers, but the backlog is still mysteriously growing fast. If every reviewer did just 55 reviews, the 22,000 backlog would be gone, in a flash, schwoop, just like that! But do remember: Rather than speed, quality and depth of patrolling and the use of correct CSD criteria are essential to good reviewing. Do not over-tag.

It was a hotly competitive round with all but four of the contestants exceeding the 106 points that was necessary to proceed to round 4 last year. Coemgenus and Freikorp tied on 288, and both have been allowed to proceed, so round 4 now has one pool of eight competitors and one of nine. Round 3 saw the achievement of a 26-topic Featured topic by MPJ-DK as well as 5 featured lists and 13 featured articles. PanagiotisZois and SounderBruce achieved their first ever featured articles. Carbrera led the GA score with 10, Tachs achieved 17 DYKs and MBlaze Lightning 10 In the news items. There were 167 DYKs, 93 GARs and 82 GAs overall, this last figure being higher than the number of GAs in round 2, when twice as many people were taking part. Even though contestants performed more GARs than they achieved GAs, there was still some frustration at the length of time taken to get articles reviewed. As we start round 4, we say goodbye to the fifteen or so competitors who didn't quite make it; thank you for the useful contributions you have made to the Cup and Wikipedia. Remember that any content promoted after the end of round 3 but before the start of round 4 can be claimed in round 4. Remember too that you must claim your points within 10 days of "earning" them (some people have fallen foul of this rule and the points have been removed). If you are concerned that your nomination, whether it be for a good article, a featured process, or anything else, 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!

With a FA scoring 200 points, and bonus points available on top of this, FAs are likely to feature heavily in the final round.

Please check the article needs no amendments. If you're interested in editing the main page text, you're welcome to do so at Wikipedia:Today's featured article/September 22, 2017, but note that a coordinator will trim the lead to around 1100 characters anyway, so you aren't obliged to do so.

Doing this allows you to trigger Milhist bot when closing A-class reviews. However, your current user page doesn't seem to allow me to add this category. Do you know if there is a way to do this? Regards, AustralianRupert (talk) 08:20, 30 September 2017 (UTC)

In November The Women in Red World Contest is being held to try to produce new articles for as many countries worldwide and occupations as possible. There will be over $4000 in prizes to win, including Amazon vouchers and paid subscriptions. If this would appeal to you and you think you'd be interested in contributing new articles on women during this month for your region or wherever please sign up in the participants section. The articles done may also count towards the ongoing challenge. If you're not interested in prize money yourself but are willing to participate and raise money to buy books about women for others to use, this is also fine. Help would also be appreciated in drawing up the lists of missing articles. If you think of any missing articles please add them to the sub lists by continent at Missing articles. Thankyou, and if taking part, good luck!♦ Dr. Blofeld 08:34, 5 October 2017 (UTC) Antonov An-70 reviewHello Krishna. I've resolved your points over at Talk:Antonov An-70/GA1.

About adding images to Dhyana BuddhaSir, In the recent edit edit you made to Dhyana Buddha statue, you have added too many images, such that they even dominated the article. As per MOS:IMAGERELEVANCE an article should not have many images, since Wikimedia Commons serves the same purpose.—IM3847 (talk) 06:23, 2 November 2017 (UTC) WikiCup 2017 November newsletter: Final resultsThe final round of the 2017 WikiCup is over.
