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 Everyone who competed in round 2 will advance to round 3 unless they have withdrawn or been banned.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) 14:49, 29 April 2026 (UTC)

Absolute Batman



RIP the old talk page lol. In all seriousness though, the Absolute Batman article Themes is finally being discussed on the talk page of that article ↗, would appreciate your input. ModlordD (talk) 16:51, 2 May 2026 (UTC)

Fire Emblem Warriors ↗



Hi! Just an update for you on the Fire Emblem front, since it's been....a while. I've just finished doing the major editing work on Fire Emblem Warriors (lead, gameplay, and release + DLC) after doing the Dev and Story a few months ago. I'm not really feeling able to do the reception right now, but it should be very easy. Sorry if I seem to be dumping this on you, but life's been crazy. I think I'll be able to also manage a similar expansion job on Three Hopes. ProtoDrake (talk) 21:55, 9 May 2026 (UTC)

:@ProtoDrake The article looks really good! It's very detailed and high quality, excellent work! Absolutely no worries on the business, and take your time with things. Life is always the highest priority, always feel free to do things for yourself first. If you need any help with reception let me know and I'll do what I can to help.
:On my part, things keep getting in the way of me finishing up Heroes (Similarly very busy, finals are coming up on my end in like, a few days lmao). I hope to finish it soon but it is still in the pipeline for me, even if I haven't worked on it in a hot second. Magneton Considerer: '''Pokelego999''' (Talk ↗) (Contribs ↗) 22:25, 9 May 2026 (UTC)
::@ProtoDrake I have just finished work on Fire Emblem Heroes ↗. I will likely do some further touch-ups tomorrow, such as copyediting, before nominating it for GA. Feel free to take a look over it in case you feel there's anything that needs adjusting before a nom. Magneton Considerer: '''Pokelego999''' (Talk ↗) (Contribs ↗) 05:50, 7 June 2026 (UTC)
:::@ProtoDrake not sure if you've seen yet, but FEH has been ranked as a Good Article. If you need any help with the Warriors articles in the future, let me know and I'll do what I can. Magneton Considerer: '''Pokelego999''' (Talk ↗) (Contribs ↗) 02:48, 25 June 2026 (UTC)

Hello {{BASEPAGENAME}},

thumb|400px|New Page Review queue November 2025 - May 2026 ↗

'''Backlog update'''

At the time of this message, there are 15,282 articles and 32,951 redirects awaiting review.

After the January–February drive the article backlog was reduced to 15,179 articles and the redirect backlog to 19,053 respectively. Great job! However, both queues are growing rapidly and any additional reviews are highly appreciated.

'''2024 and 2025 NPP Awards'''

74px|left ↗{{no ping|JTtheOG}} was selected as the NPP reviewer of the year for both 2024 and 2025, for reviewing the most articles amongst all reviewers.
{{no ping|Hey man im josh}} and {{no ping|MPGuy2824}} won the Redirect Ninja Master Award for 2024 and 2025 respectively, for reviewing the most redirects.

Overall in 2024, one Platinum, two Gold, eight Silver, 12 Bronze and 45 Iron Barnstars were awarded. Additionally, 66 reviewers got the NPP barnstar for doing more than 100 reviews through the year. In 2025, one Platinum, ten Silver, 13 Bronze and 38 Iron Barnstars were awarded. Additionally, 38 reviewers got the NPP barnstar for doing more than 100 reviews through the year.

{{no ping|BoyTheKingCanDance}}, {{no ping|Rosiestep}}, {{no ping|SunDawn}}, and {{no ping|Vanderwaalforces}} were inducted into the NPP Hall of Fame ↗ for having two separate years of 2,000+ article reviews.

'''January–February backlog drive'''

The experimental two-month long backlog drive concluded with 183 reviewers patrolling over 27,761 articles and 35,309 redirects, earning over 36,836 points. Congratulations to {{no ping|JTtheOG}}, who achieved first place with 6,484.6 points in this drive.

'''May backlog drive'''

An article-only backlog drive is currently underway. We are hoping to make a big dent in the backlog. You can read more about it or join at Wikipedia:New pages patrol/Backlog drives/May 2026 ↗.

'''PageTriage'''

An attempt was made to get the New Pages Feed ↗ to sort by date marked as reviewed instead of date created. However we had to revert it due to bugs. We may try again in the future. You can subscribe to the Phabricator ticket ↗ if you're interested in following along.

A new newsletter materializing? Quick, help us reverse the polarity of the neutron flow so it can safely land on your talk pages!

<big>'''Don't be lasagna (because there's a new newsletter to read)'''</big>

: Hello, and welcome to our first 2026 issue of ''The Space-Time Telegraph''. Inside you'll find plenty of information about recent happenings in our little ''Who'' corner of Wikipedia. We've also included a plethora of ''Doctor Who'' news you may have missed elsewhere in the last few months such as the finding of previously missing episodes, upcoming and recent product releases, a new streaming home for ''Who'' across the pond (and even a potential future partnership for new episodes). So what are you waiting for? Go ahead and jump on in!
</center>
{{columns-start|num=2}}

<big>'''Into the Vortex! (Of Good and Featured Content)'''</big>
:Since our newsletter last December, the ''Doctor Who'' WikiProject has seen a large amount of quality article improvement. So far, 16 Good Articles have been improved this year! We're at about the same pace we were last year, which is always good to see, especially given the twelve other articles nominated for GA status at present. Special shoutouts to users {{noping|Rhain}} for their improvements on First Doctor ↗ serials, {{noping|SkywalkerEccleston}} for their various improvements across a wide variety of articles, {{noping|Lbal}} for their work on Full Circle (''Doctor Who'') ↗, and {{noping|Doomitron}} for their work on Sixth Doctor ↗.

:Additionally, since then, Ice Warrior ↗ has been improved to Featured Article status, List of ''Doctor Who'' creatures and aliens ↗ and List of ''Doctor Who'' characters ↗ have been improved to Featured List status, and three Good Topics focused on articles relating to the Midnight Entity ↗, the Slitheen ↗, and ''Doctor Who'' series 15 ↗ have been nominated and approved.

:Congratulations to all of the users who have improved quality ''Doctor Who'' articles in the past few months!

<big>'''A flabbergasting discovery'''</big>
:In March, it was announced that episodes 1 ("The Nightmare Begins") and 3 ("Devil's Planet") of ''The Daleks' Master Plan ↗'' were found by the charity Film is Fabulous! in a private collection among some films. The collector gave them permission to have them and sadly passed away not long after. Upon learning of the discovery through Toby Hadoke ↗, actor Peter Purves ↗, who starred in the episodes alongside William Hartnell ↗ and Adrienne Hill ↗, said "My flabber has never been so gasted". The episodes were shown at a BFI ↗ screening (with Purves in attendance) in April and are now available on BBC iPlayer ↗ in the UK and the official Doctor Who Classic YouTube ↗ channel in the US. This means that episodes 1, 2, 3, 5 and 10 of ''The Daleks' Master Plan'' are now available.

:It has been hinted that more could be found in the near future as 95 episodes remain missing.

<big>'''Intelligence Bulletin from the Subwave Network'''</big>

<big>'''Succession'''</big>
:The oldest-living person associated with the Whoniverse since Arnold Yarrow ↗'s death in December 2024, Laurie Webb ↗, sadly passed away on 29 March aged 101 years, 327 days. He remains the fifth longest-lived person associated with the Whoniverse and the tenth to become a centenarian. The title of oldest-living person associated with the Whoniverse is now held by 97-year-old Peter Cellier ↗ (''Time-Flight ↗'').

Interesting question I have



Hey, I saw that your Doctor Who WikiProject is doing super well. Congrats on all your recent GAs, your list, and the new newsletter! You deserve it. I was wondering, could I hypothetically reorganize the Marvel WikiProject? Whats the process behind doing something like that ModlordD (talk) 01:54, 8 June 2026 (UTC)

:@ModlordD There isn't really an official "process" per se, but I'd say the big part you should consider is what you want to reorganize. The Doctor Who WikiProject's revamps have largely been because the bulk of us have been largely likeminded regarding how to handle content, and we have set goals we are all continuously working toward. It definitely depends on how open other editors are to these kinds of changes you propose; one person revamping everything without prior approval is a bit less easy in larger Projects, especially if they've had established structures for a while. I'm a bit less certain about who is active in the Marvel task force and how active it is, but I'd likely try starting small with the revamps before moving up to big stuff. It's also good to start clearing out less active areas of the project or revamping older framework/project areas since those will likely be easier to improve and work with overall. I can probably be a bit more specific with more specific goals but I'd say that's some general advice I'd throw out based on what I have done in regards to the Doctor Who project.

Friendly question



Hey Pokelego, haven't seen you in a couple months. I haven't really had the time I'd like for the gaming content... anyway, just wanted to drop by and ask if you'd seen the union solidarity petition ↗ that's been circulating. You tend to do a better job than I do in terms of sticking to article content, so I just wanted to check if you'd heard about it and maybe hear your thoughts on it. :) Sorry if this is a bother at all. In solidarity ↗, QuicoleJR (talk) 22:25, 8 June 2026 (UTC)

:@QuicoleJR It's good to hear from you! Hope things have been good on your end despite the business. I've seen the petition going around but admittedly haven't had much time to check deets the past few days; I'll take a looksie once I have time to read up on everything, I'm admittedly not as well-versed in wider WikiLore as I probably ought to be. Thanks for the notice on it. Magneton Considerer: '''Pokelego999''' (Talk ↗) (Contribs ↗) 03:07, 10 June 2026 (UTC)

Keyboards



Please recommend a good keyboard that you like as I'm in the market. You obviously know how to type. ↗ Viriditas (talk) 09:46, 27 June 2026 (UTC)

:@Viriditas Lmao. For that message I just used my Mac's basic keyboard, but one I liked a lot when I edited on my old computer with a busted keyboard was this one ↗. (Not sure if they sell anywhere else, this was just the first result I got off Google lmao) Not much of a tech guy so hopefully this helps. Magneton Considerer: '''Pokelego999''' (Talk ↗) (Contribs ↗) 21:47, 27 June 2026 (UTC)
::Yeah, I had one of those recently. It broke easily. I just got a new logitech, but it's way too cheap and probably won't last more than a few months. I was looking at a nice mechanical, but I don't really want to spend $400. I saw a low-end one for $150 but it had all sorts of flashing lights that I don't need. I liked that it was completely silent (for the most part), which was nice. I heard an interesting interview recently about chorded keyboard ↗s, which allows people to type as fast as 500 wpm. That interests me, but I wonder about the learning curve. Viriditas (talk) 23:04, 27 June 2026 (UTC)
:::Yeah Logitech was the other one I've been using. They're very cheap but I haven't had too many problems with them overall, unfortunately I lack a lot of knowledge on more expensive types since I don't tend to shell out for those. Hadn't heard about chorded keyboards until now, they seem interesting but yeah I'd have to second that I'm curious about what that learning curve is like given how unique the system is.

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:


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! <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) 13:49, 29 June 2026 (UTC)
