Operation Desert Hawk

Hey there @MBlaze Lightning:. It appears you reverted an edit by another user and I referring to the result of Operation Desert Hawk, its territorial changes, and the inclusion of a map to the infobox. Now, you said to use the talk page to discuss this, which I did (I pinged you in my post), and I addressed the points you made, however you have yet to respond. Your points on cherrypicking, superseding previous cited sources, POV pushing, etc, were refuted. I once again request you to revert your edit to thus prevent the image of POV Pushing and bias in leaving out major details of the Operation. I don't want to be repetitive and form a super long message, so you can refer to my talk page message. You yourself stated, "My observation here is that critiquing a topic of historical interest is the preserve of scholars. And where they remark in the affirmative that one side had better success at accomplishing the objectives it had set out to accomplish, Wikipedia naturally has to reflect the same. That's how this encyclopedia is written.". This is the absolute same case for the result in Operation Desert Hawk. I request you to revert your edit. Thank you. MrGreen1163 (talk) 07:19, 26 November 2023 (UTC)

Hi @MrGreen1163, thank you for bringing up the disagreement on the article's talk page, where it needed to be broached. I did not get your ping though, you may not have formatted it properly, so it was unbeknownst to me at the time. Nonetheless, thank you for being so thoughtful enough to leave me a message here about it. The concerns I broached about your edits are still relevant, and so I'd be pursuing the discussion on the talk page. See ya there. MBlaze Lightning (talk) 11:02, 27 November 2023 (UTC)

Oh it appears I pinged nobody! My bad. MrGreen1163 (talk) 11:59, 27 November 2023 (UTC)

No worries. Cheers. MBlaze Lightning (talk) 18:23, 27 November 2023 (UTC)

WikiCup 2024 March newsletter

The first round of the 2024 WikiCup ended at 23:59 (UTC) on 27 February. Everyone with at least 30 points moved on to Round 2, the highest number of points required to advance to the second round since 2014. Due to a six-way tie for the 64th-place spot, 67 contestants have qualified for Round 2.

The following scorers in Round 1 all scored more than 300 points:

• Generalissima (submissions), who has 916 points mostly from one FA on John Littlejohn (preacher), 15 GAs, and 16 DYKs on a variety of topics including New Zealand coinage and Inuit figures, in addition to seven reviews
• Vami_IV (submissions), who has 790 points from two FAs on Felix M. Warburg House and Doom (2016 video game), two GAs, one DYK, and 11 reviews
• AirshipJungleman29 (submissions), who has 580 points from one FA on Hö'elün, two GAs on Mongolia-related articles, two DYKs, and five reviews
• Sammi Brie (submissions), who has 420 points mostly from nine GAs and seven DYKs on television and radio stations
• MaranoFan (submissions), who has 351 points from one FA on Holidays (Meghan Trainor song), a nine-article FT on 30 (album), and three DYKs
• Skyshifter (submissions), who has 345 points from one FA on OneShot, one DYK and two reviews

In this newsletter, the judges would like to pay a special tribute to Vami_IV (submissions), who unfortunately passed away this February. At the time of his death, he was the second-highest-scoring competitor. Outside the WikiCup, he had eight other featured articles, five A-class articles, eight other good articles, and two Four Awards. Vami also wrote an essay on completionism, a philosophy in which he deeply believed. If you can, please join us in honoring his memory by improving one of the articles on his to-do list.

Remember that any content promoted after 27 February 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. 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!
