I see you on ANI...

I see that you've made it onto ANI. I hope you don't get too stressed (like @BrownHairedGirl). Remember that it's always okay to apologize, take a cooldown, or even a small to medium (or even large, although we (the Wikipedia community) don't want you to be gone for too long) Wikibreak ↗.

I hope this message finds you in good health,

Sincerely, Wikipedian12512 (Talking is fine | contribs ↗) 20:28, 27 May 2026 (UTC) (signed)

Thank you for your concern and your kindness. '''Abductive''' (reasoning) 08:41, 28 May 2026 (UTC)

Flags

Hi Abductive, I would love to get rid of the flags at 2026 Venezuela earthquakes ↗ but I can't see a directly relevant section in MOS:FLAG ↗ to justify such action, is there something I'm missing? Mikenorton (talk) 09:59, 27 June 2026 (UTC)

Well, there is MOS:FLAGCRUFT ↗, with the term "cruft" indicating absolute withering contempt, and WP:QUOTECRUFT ↗, and MOS:USEPROSE ↗. In addition, when editors raise the issue on an articles' talk page, the consensus almost always ends up being to prosify. '''Abductive''' (reasoning) 13:02, 27 June 2026 (UTC)

:*Thanks, the sooner the better, but, in a few weeks to months time, there will be a lot less interest and it should be possible to remove where necessary. condense and prosify. Mikenorton (talk) 16:56, 27 June 2026 (UTC)

WikiCup 2026 July newsletter

The third round of the 2026 WikiCup ended on 28 June at 23:59 (UTC). As a reminder, good article nomination reviews ↗ now receive 10 points, while peer reviews ↗, which continue to be worth 5 points, are now listed in the same section as featured article candidate reviews ↗, rather than with good article reviews. Everyone who competed in round 3 will advance to round 4 unless they have withdrawn or been banned. No other changes to the round-point system have been made for this year.

Round 3 was competitive. Three contestants scored more than 1,000 round points; eight scored over 500; and thirteen scored over 300. The top three contestants had at least one featured article ↗ (two of them with two apiece). The following competitors scored more than 800 round points:

{{Wikipedia:WikiCup/Participant17|MCE89}} with 1567 points, mainly from good and featured articles about Australian people and geography, as well as some article reviews

{{Wikipedia:WikiCup/Participant17|Bgsu98}} with 1547 points, mainly from good articles, featured articles, featured lists, and a good topic about figure skating, along with 20 article reviews

{{Wikipedia:WikiCup/Participant17|Reconrabbit}} with 1004 points, mainly from a high-multiplier featured article on European rabbit ↗ and several good articles, DYKs, and reviews

{{Wikipedia:WikiCup/Participant17|A.Cython}} with 1004 points, mainly from good articles about warfare, along with 22 article reviews

{{Wikipedia:WikiCup/Participant17|Generalissima}} with 859 points, mainly from good and featured articles about rivers and East Asian topics

The full scores for round 3 can be seen here ↗. During this round, contestants have claimed 12 featured articles, 12 featured lists, 7 featured-topic articles, 117 good articles, 74 good-topic articles and more than 30 Did You Know articles. In addition, competitors have worked on 13 In the News ↗ articles, and they have conducted nearly 180 reviews. The tournament points table ↗ has been updated.

Remember that any content promoted after 28 June but before the start of Round 4 can be claimed in Round 4. 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! If you wish to start or stop receiving this newsletter, please feel free to add or remove your name from Wikipedia:WikiCup/Newsletter/Send ↗.
