WikiCup 2026 May newsletter



The second round of the 2026 WikiCup ended on 28 April. As a reminder for contestants who just joined or are unaware of recent changes to our round-points system, good article nomination reviews ↗ now receive 10 points, an increase from 5 points in the previous year, as per a consensus at WT:CUP ↗. 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 Everyone who competed in round 2 will advance to round 3 unless they have withdrawn or been banned. No other changes to the round-point system have been made for this year.

Round 2 was competitive. Three contestants scored more than 1,000 round points; nine scored over 500; and fourteen scored over 300. The top seven contestants had at least one featured article ↗ (two of them with two apiece). The following competitors scored more than 800 round points:


The full scores for round 2 can be seen here ↗. During this round, contestants have claimed 12 featured articles, 13 featured lists, 2 featured-topic articles, 106 good articles, 22 good-topic articles and more than 40 Did You Know articles. In addition, competitors have worked on 3 In the News ↗ articles, and they have conducted over 200 reviews. The tournament points table ↗ has been updated.

Remember that any content promoted after 28 April but before the start of Round 3 can be claimed in Round 3. 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! <small>If you wish to start or stop receiving this newsletter, please feel free to add or remove your name from Wikipedia:WikiCup/Newsletter/Send ↗.</small> MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 14:48, 29 April 2026 (UTC)

:And thank you for your kind words regarding FAC. Given your experience of the process, would you recommend I first send the article off for peer review ↗? Joko2468 (talk) 15:12, 22 June 2026 (UTC)
::Thank you for the barnstar, @Joko2468, I'm very honoured to have reviewed that article. It was my first 'lengthy' article and a favourite topic of mine. As for your question, I personally didn't use peer reviews for either of my FAs. Honestly, the three times that I've attempted to put my articles there have had disappointing results, with total lack of engagement form reviewer's parts. I would say Thuggee is already well-prepared to be put for nomination. It certainly meets the criteria ↗. Amir Ghandi (talk) 15:20, 22 June 2026 (UTC)
:::Okay great thank you, I'll look into nominating it. Joko2468 (talk) 16:03, 22 June 2026 (UTC)
:::Hi Amir, just letting you know I nominated the article at FAC in case you wanted to comment on it (no worries if not, or if you'd like to hold off for now). Thanks. Joko2468 (talk) 06:40, 29 June 2026 (UTC)
