WikiCup 2015 May newsletter

C/2014 Q2 (Lovejoy) is a long-period comet discovered on 17 August 2014 by Terry Lovejoy; and is one of several Featured Pictures worked up by India The Herald (submissions) during the second round.

The second round one has all wrapped up, and round three has now begun! Congratulations to the 34 contestants who have made it through, but well done and thank you to all contestants who took part in our second round. Leading the way overall was Belarus Cas Liber (submissions) in Group B with a total of 777 points for a variety of contributions including Good Articles on Corona Borealis and Microscopium - both of which received the maximum bonus.

Special credit must be given to a number of high importance articles improved during the second round.

The points varied across groups, with the lowest score required to gain automatic qualification was 68 in Group A - meanwhile the second place score in Group H was 404, which would have been high enough to win all but one of the other Groups! As well as the top two of each group automatically going through to the third round, a minimum score of 55 was required for a wildcard competitor to go through. We had a three-way tie at 55 points and all three have qualified for the next round, in the spirit of fairness. The third round ends on June 28, with the top two in each group progressing automatically while the remaining 16 highest scorers across all four groups go through as wildcards. Good luck to all competitors for the third round! Figureskatingfan (talk · contribs · email), Miyagawa (talk · contribs · email) and Sturmvogel 66 (talk · contribs · email) 16:56, 4 May 2015 (UTC)

The contributions to the Mayor of Baltimore City's page are entirely correct and legitimate. The public has a right to known the entire truth, including the issue that she fails to respond diligently. There were 28 people shot this weekend alone. Do you think Wikipedia is entitled to restrict this information from public disclosure?

RE: Credit to another user

Hello

I recently saw your message you left on my talk page and it clearly states on the source code of my guestbook clearly states Designs in courtesy/belong to StevenD99 and Pratyya Ghosh. So therefore, i am going to disregard the notice. Gibboboy — Preceding undated comment added 19:32, 27 May 2015 (UTC)

WikiCup 2015 September newsletter

The finals for the 2015 Wikicup has now begun! Congrats to the 8 contestants who have survived to the finals, and well done and thanks to everyone who took part in rounds 3 and 4.

In round 3, we had a three-way tie for qualification among the wildcard contestants, so we had 34 competitors. The leader was by far Scotland Casliber (submissions) in Group B, who earned 1496 points. Although 913 of these points were bonus points, he submitted 15 articles in the DYK category. Second place overall was Philadelphia Coemgenus (submissions) at 864 points, who although submitted just 2 FAs for 400 points, earned double that amount for those articles in bonus points. Everyone who moved forward to Round 4 earned at least 100 points.

The scores required to move onto the semifinals were impressive; the lowest scorer to move onto the finals was 407, making this year's Wikicup as competitive as it's always been. Our finalists, ordered by round 4 score, are:

  1. Belarus Cas Liber (submissions), who is competing in his sixth consecutive Wikicup final, again finished the round in first place, with an impressive 1666 points in Pool B. Casliber writes about the natural sciences, including ornithology, botany and astronomy. A large bulk of his points this round were bonus points.
  2. Smithsonian Institution Godot13 (submissions) (FP bonus points), second place both in Pool B and overall, earned the bulk of his points with FPs, mostly depicting currency.
  3. Wales Cwmhiraeth (submissions), first in Pool A, came in third. His specialty is natural science articles; in Round 4, he mostly submitted articles about insects and botany. Five out of the six of the GAs he submitted were level-4 vital articles.
  4. Somerset Harrias (submissions), second in Pool A, took fourth overall. He tends to focus on articles about cricket and military history, specifically the 1640s First English Civil War.
  5. Washington, D.C. West Virginian (submissions), from Pool A, was our highest-scoring wildcard. West Virginia tends to focus on articles about the history of (what for it!) the U.S. state of West Virginia.
  6. Somerset Rodw (submissions), from Pool A, likes to work on articles about British geography and places. Most of his points this round were earned from two impressive accomplishments: a GT about Scheduled monuments in Somerset and a FT about English Heritage properties in Somerset.
  7. United States Rationalobserver (submissions), from Pool B, came in seventh overall. RO earned the majority of her points from GARs and PRs, many of which were earned in the final hours of the round.
  8. England Calvin999 (submissions), also from Pool B, who was competing with RO for the final two spots in the final hours, takes the race for most GARs and PRs—48.

The intense competition between RO and Calvin999 will continue into the finals. They're both eligible for the Newcomers Trophy, given for the first time in the Wikicup; whoever makes the most points will win it.

Good luck to the finalists; the judges are sure that the competition will be fierce!

WikiCup 2015 is now in the books! Congrats to our finalists and winners, and to everyone who took part in this year's competition.

This year's results were an exact replica of last year's competition. For the second year in a row, the 2015 WikiCup champion is Smithsonian Institution Godot13 (submissions) (FP bonus points). All of his points were earned for an impressive 253 featured pictures and their associated bonus points (5060 and 1695, respectively).

Wales Cwmhiraeth (submissions) came in second place; she earned by far the most bonus points (4082), for 4 featured articles, 15 good articles, and 147 DYKs, mostly about in her field of expertise, natural science. Belarus Cas Liber (submissions), a finalist every year since 2010, came in third, with 2379 points.

Our newcomer award, presented to the best-performing new competitor in the WikiCup, goes to United States Rationalobserver (submissions). Everyone should be very proud of the work they accomplished. We will announce our other award winners soon.

A full list of our award winners are:

We warmly invite all of you to sign up for next year's competition. Discussions and polls concerning potential rules changes are also open, and all are welcome to participate.

All of them are outright copyvios. No second thoughts. Photos taken from facebook are copyvios unless both the publishers are same (which we can't confirm here). So.Delete. ƬheStrikeΣagle 09:42, 28 November 2015 (UTC)

Talk:Visakhapatnam

The page has C-Class with mid-importance, but again it says This article has not yet received a rating at the bottom of that, is that duplicate?--Vin09 (talk) 11:16, 30 November 2015 (UTC)

 Fixed Ratings for each project have to be given separately. It seems WPIndia was rated and WPCities was left out in this case. I've fixed it and updated the rating now. I recommend using rater for rating articles of any project. Cheers, ƬheStrikeΣagle 12:44, 30 November 2015 (UTC)

Sections/lines

Please see Wikipedia_talk:Noticeboard_for_India-related_topics/Archive_60#Main_line.2C_Sections.2C_branch_lines. As per Sections/lines reference. How to create branch lines/sections, like Vijayawada-Guntur (known names) or Kirhsna Canal-Guntur (as per division) would be correct? My created articles are Guntur-Krishna Canal section, Nallapadu–Pagidipalli section, Tenali-Repalle branch line. I followed divisional website reference, rathar than main city name.--Vin09 (talk) 12:52, 30 November 2015 (UTC)

You could try Vijayawada junction - Guntur junction section maybe? Seems OK to me. No other alternatives seem viable. Cheers, ƬheStrikeΣagle 13:22, 30 November 2015 (UTC)
Ok, but the reference has length and info on Krishna Canal-Guntur, let's see. I'll gather much info from others. Thanks.--Vin09 (talk) 15:24, 30 November 2015 (UTC)

Rater

Please check User:Vin09/common.js. Is this ok? It says "page could contain malicious content capable of compromising your account". Is that safe or just a normal warning?--Vin09 (talk) 07:20, 1 December 2015 (UTC)

It's perfectly alright. Cheers, ƬheStrikeΣagle 07:25, 1 December 2015 (UTC)
How to rate an article with that Rater? I've clicked it and it shows a box. Do we need to add on our own? It does not automatically add rating?--Vin09 (talk) 07:46, 1 December 2015 (UTC)
I think it is the reference for cities -> Wikipedia:WikiProject_Indian_cities#V1.0_assessment. So, Vizag article may get B and not C I guess. I've tried Talk:Guntur to set it as mid-importance.--Vin09 (talk) 08:11, 1 December 2015 (UTC)
It's more a guide but not binding. Vijayawada and/or Visakhapatnam come under Top category due to their strategic importance and economic activity. The grades C or B are determined by the article quality...not population. See Quality Scale as of how to rate according to quality. Cheers, ƬheStrikeΣagle 12:13, 2 December 2015 (UTC)
Ok, I've tried in Guntur page, can you see that.--Vin09 (talk) 14:51, 2 December 2015 (UTC)
IMO Guntur falls in C category as its refs or the whole content is not perfectly distributed. For example, there are way too many subsections which are very short. See Hyderabad for a perfectly structured article. Cheers, ƬheStrikeΣagle 16:19, 2 December 2015 (UTC)

That B category was not mine which is WikiProject India, I've edited for wiki cities which I gave C only.--Vin09 (talk) 17:19, 2 December 2015 (UTC)

On Your Edits to the Indo-Pak Relations Template

Stop removing content from the Indo-Pak Relations template . I'm getting pretty sick and tired of reversing your edits. --113.203.190.119 (talk) 11:01, 4 December 2015 (UTC)

Unless you prove how there are these hypothetical space race and supercomputer race going on b/w India and Pakistan (as you claim), I will keep on reverting you. Calling me a moron will only get you blocked, won't help you push your self-satisfying POV. Thank you, ƬheStrikeΣagle 15:41, 4 December 2015 (UTC)

We both have active space programmes and are involved in supercomputing. This comes under the scientific rivalry. Yes, I will admit you Indians are far ahead in these things, but we Pakistanis are still involved in these things also. So therefore it should in the template, so stop removing it. And everytime you remove it, I'll revert it back. --113.203.220.251 (talk) 15:54, 4 December 2015 (UTC)

Having active space or scientific program doesn't account to rivalry. Going by your logic, India has scientific rivalry with all the nations of the world! I won't revert you again if you provide any reliable sources to support your claim of rivalry. Otherwise you would be blocked for disruption and pushing original research soon. Cheers, ƬheStrikeΣagle 15:58, 4 December 2015 (UTC)

OK then, why don't you also remove the sports rivalry content in the template? Knowing Pakistan and India have rivalries in alll spheres should be common sense. We have had historical problems with each other and seeked to outdo each other in every field. It belongs in the template. Also stop threatening me with the banning. You can get banned too. --113.203.220.251 (talk) 16:03, 4 December 2015 (UTC)

The sports rivalry article also exists and is well sourced. So no comparison at all. No its not common sense to assume hypothetical comparisons. Please don't waste your time preaching me about rivalries. Either get some neutral reliable sources or self-revert. Else someone else will revert you anyway. ƬheStrikeΣagle 16:09, 4 December 2015 (UTC)

Fine. Let's just remove WMDs, space, IT and supercomputing from the template and put only the science and technology in India and Pakistan articles in the template. --39.44.73.204 (talk) 16:13, 4 December 2015 (UTC)
