Welcome to the 2020 WikiCup!Happy New Year, Happy New Decade and Happy New WikiCup! The competition begins today and all article creators, expanders and improvers are welcome to take part. If you have already signed up, your submissions page can be found here. If you have not yet signed up, you can add your name here and the judges will set up your submissions page. We are relaxing the rule that only content on which you have completed significant work during 2020 will count; now to be eligible for points in the competition, you must have completed significant work on the content at some time! Any questions on the rules or on anything else connected to the Cup should be directed to one of the judges, or posted to the WikiCup talk page. Signups will close at the end of January, and the first round will end on 26 February; the 64 highest scorers at that time will move on to round 2. Good luck!

Problem with plagiarism. Correct and then I will continue review. Thanks.--Doug Coldwell (talk) 13:55, 4 January 2020 (UTC) pictureThere happens to be a picture of Fred Evans on Flickr. If you sent a Flickr email to the photographer and ask if they would lower their rights, there is a better than 50-50 chance they will. Here is the wording I use and have had good luck using these words for years. I write articles for Wikipedia. Your picture

Also matches up with the playing details on the ENFA website. ENFA also states that the 1894-born player is called Henry O'Neill (not Harold) and was born on 2 November 1894, but didn't change that as it seems to conflict with other sources.

New Page Reviewer newsletter February 2020 Hello Kosack,
The first NPP source guide discussion is now underway. It covers a wide range of sources in Ghana with the goal of providing more guidance to reviewers about sources they might see when reviewing pages. Hopefully, new page reviewers will join others interested in reliable sources and those with expertise in these sources to make the discussion a success.
New to NPP? Looking to try something a little different? Consider patrolling some redirects. Redirects are relatively easy to review, can be found easily through the New Pages Feed. You can find more information about how to patrol redirects at WP:RPATROL.
Geographic regions, areas and places generally do not need general notability guideline type sourcing. When evaluating whether an article meets this notability guideline please also consider whether it might actually be a form of WP:SPAM for a development project (e.g. PR for a large luxury residential development) and not actually covered by the guideline.

WikiCup 2020 March newsletterAnd so ends the first round of the competition. Everyone with a positive score moves on to Round 2, with 57 contestants qualifying. We have abolished the groups this year, so to qualify for Round 3 you will need to finish Round 2 among the top thirty-two contestants. Our top scorers in Round 1 were:
These contestants, like all the others, now have to start scoring points again from scratch. In Round 1 there were four featured articles, one featured list and two featured pictures, as well as around two hundred DYKs and twenty-seven ITNs. Between them, contestants completed 127 good article reviews, nearly a hundred more than the 43 good articles they claimed for, thus making a substantial dent in the review backlog. Contestants also claimed for 40 featured article / featured list reviews, and most even remembered to mention their WikiCup participation in their reviews (a requirement). Remember that any content promoted after the end of Round 1 but before the start of Round 2 can be claimed in Round 2. Some contestants made claims before the new submissions pages were set up, and they will need to resubmit them. 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. 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. Good luck!

Leonard Frank "Leo" NewtonHello, since you contribute a lot to articles involving Cardiff City, I was wondering if you could be of some assistance. I've created the article Leo Newton, and he seems to have played for Cardiff at least in 1909 in the South Wales League and in a 1910 friendly against Middlesbrough. Is this the same player as "Frank Newton" listed at List of Cardiff City F.C. players (1–24 appearances), active between 1911 and 1914? I didn't want to change anything without being sure. S.A.

It was a high-scoring round and contestants needed 75 points to advance to round 3. There were some very impressive efforts in round 2, with the top ten contestants all scoring more than 500 points. A large number of the points came from the 12 featured articles and the 186 good articles achieved in total by contestants, and the 355 good article reviews they performed; the GAN backlog drive and the stay-at-home imperative during the COVID-19 pandemic may have been partially responsible for these impressive figures. Our top scorers in round 2 were:
The rules for featured article reviews have been adjusted; reviews may cover three aspects of the article, content, images and sources, and contestants may receive points for each of these three types of review. Please also remember the requirement to mention the WikiCup when undertaking an FAR for which you intend to claim points. Remember also that DYKs cannot be claimed until they have appeared on the main page. As we enter the third round, any content promoted after the end of round 2 but before the start of round 3 can be claimed now, and anything you forgot to claim in round 2 cannot! Remember too, that you must claim your points within 14 days of "earning" them. When doing GARs, please make sure that you check that all the GA criteria are fully met. If you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is at good article nominations, a featured process, or anything else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews Needed (remember to remove your listing when no longer required). Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. Good luck!

Burnley F.C. peer reviewHi Kosack, I don't know if you remember, but at the beginning of the year you promoted the Burnley F.C. page to a GA. I've decided to request a peer review since I believe the article has potential to become a featured article. The structure of the article is intact, not much has changed apart from a few tweaks and replacement of some sources. There are of course still flaws in it and therefore I'm hoping you're willing to help, if you have the time and desire of course. WA8MTWAYC (talk) 20:50, 9 May 2020 (UTC)
DYK for History of the Wales national football team (1876–1976)On 10 May 2020, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article History of the Wales national football team (1876–1976), which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that the history of the Wales national football team includes the first substitution ever used in international football?

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. Vanamonde (Talk) 00:01, 10 May 2020 (UTC) I would like a bit of clarification on what I've read out in the "Second half" section on the recent newly good article. I've noticed that Joe Allen (Swansea at the time) has been positioned as a defender for a corner by viewing the commentary text from the source. When I see the list of names, they list him as a "CM". I am half thinking that the word "defender" would be changed into "midfielder" although most of the Swansea team were defending from Reading's 48th minute corner which went in the net.

Cwmhiraeth (talk) 00:02, 25 May 2020 (UTC) Images and Captions on Stockport County FCHi I have been though the images on the Article Stockport County F.C. but I'm unsure if I have done the Copyright /Licensing correctly. I know you have had many articles reach FA status so I have a good feeling you'll know what it the right way to license something. I think I have done them correctly but nice to get another set of eyes on it incase there is something I have missed off. Mainly the clubs logo but the other images could do with a once over as well. I'm asking as its something that keeps coming up in the FAC image review. Also with image captions on the Article. I have been told full sentences don't need a period in the caption, again I have been through it but just someone to double check would be nice. Thanks, appreciate all you help with the article recently. Wna247 (talk) 15:05, 24 May 2020 (UTC)

At the nomination stage I have amended all the notes from The Rambling Man but it seems like he has given up with the nomination and wishes to pass it on to someone else. I have asked the other users for there comments. If there are any comments from yourself or any more advice you could give me it would be much appreciated.
