;<big>From the Judges</big>
Wow, you guys are racking up the DYK's fast! Good articles are also coming in quite quickly, and we also have a few new Featured articles. This is coming along great so far; we're glad to see almost everyone working on something.

Also, Thehelpfulone is our newest judge. He will, starting Monday, be helping maintain the WikiCup and help us ensure all runs smoothly. It's hard to gain consensus between two editors, so I guess "majority rules" (with three people) will start to apply while we make our decision. :-P

Keep it up!

;<big>From the Judges</big>
This years WikiCup started off great! It's only the second full week of competition, and we already have a lot of content promoted. We have some very close pools, such as Pool A and J. We also have some pools who have not been very active yet, but hopefully that will start changing in the coming weeks.

Garden and iMatthew have also opened a new pool, the "Judge's Pool" where we are competing against each other and following the same rules as all of you. This pool however, will never have any effect on the actual competition, but you can still check back often to see how we are doing compared to yourself.

That's it for this newsletter edition, everyone. Any questions or comments are always welcome on the WikiCup talk page, or our user talk pages. Until next time, [[User talk:Garden|<span style="color:#333333;">'''Garden'''</span>]]. and <span style="font-family:cursive;">'''[[User:IMatthew|<span style="color:#007BA7">iMatthew</span>]] // [[User talk:IMatthew|<span style="color:#960018">talk</span>]]''' // </span></span> 13:55, 11 January 2009 (UTC)

;<big>From the Judges</big>
We're still going strong.  Couple of things though; please note that you must make it known you are in the WikiCup when nominating FAs, FLs, FPos, FPs, and FSs.  This is to lower the possibility of bias.  We're also changing the way you get to the next round.  Now, the top ''two'' from each round get through, along with '''ten wildcards'''.  This means that even if you're not in the top two you can still get into Round 2, so even if you're in the [[group of death]] you can still go through.  Hopefully this will be fairer for all.  We've also unfortunately had our first withdrawal - {{flagicon|El Salvador}} [[User:Truco|Truco]] has left the Cup.  Best wishes for him in the future.

Hi Guys! Well it's Thehelpfulone's first time properly looking at the scores as he made this newsletter and he's impressed on how much work you have all done. It's a shame to say that [[User:RyanCross|RyanCross]] has withdrawn from the Cup. We have almost hit 200 DYKs, not far off from 100 GA's and [[User:Durova|Durova]] has passed the 1000 point mark on points, with 1347 points so congratulations to her! <small><span style="border:1px solid #660000;padding:1px;">[[User_talk:Garden|<span style="color:white ;background:#660000;">&nbsp;'''GARDEN'''&nbsp;</span>]]</span></small>, <span style="font-family:cursive;">'''[[User:IMatthew|<span style="color:#007BA7">iMatthew</span>]] // [[User talk:IMatthew|<span style="color:#960018">talk</span>]]'''</span>, and [[User:Thehelpfulone|<span style="color:red;">'''The'''</span>]][[User_talk:Thehelpfulone|<span style="color:black;"> '''Helpful'''</span>]][[Special:Contributions/Thehelpfulone|<span style="color:red;"> '''One'''</span>]]

;<big>From the Judges</big>
We have 31 days left, just one month left in the first round. The first two months have already produced spectacular results, and we're hoping to see a great race to the end of the round. Get those nominations in for them to count for this round, but remember that any nominations that are not promoted before the end of this round, will still count for round two if you make it. We unfortunately had another contestant, What!?Why?Who?, withdraw this week and we wish them the best.

We saw some big jumps in content upgrades this week! We saw 33 new good articles, 3 new featured articles and lists, 8 featured pictures, 5 featured sounds, and 24 did you know items. (Also note, there are 111 good articles and 222 did you know items as of this newsletter). Keep it up during the final push to round two. <small><span style="border:1px solid #660000;padding:1px;">[[User_talk:Garden|<span style="color:white ;background:#660000;">&nbsp;'''GARDEN'''&nbsp;</span>]]</span></small>, <span style="font-family:cursive;">'''[[User:IMatthew|<span style="color:#007BA7">iMatthew</span>]] // [[User talk:IMatthew|<span style="color:#960018">talk</span>]]'''</span>, and [[User:Thehelpfulone|<span style="color:red;">'''The'''</span>]][[User_talk:Thehelpfulone|<span style="color:black;"> '''Helpful'''</span>]][[Special:Contributions/Thehelpfulone|<span style="color:red;"> '''One'''</span>]]

;<big>From the Judges</big>
I think it's safe to say that this week is probably your last chance to nominate anything for promotion to count in this round, so start planning that all-important final push.  Bear in mind that anything not promoted this month will still count in the next round if you go through.  It's looking very close in the Wildcards section, so if you don't see yourself there, don't panic&mdash;you may not be too far off the pace! <small><span style="border:1px solid #660000;padding:1px;">[[User_talk:Garden|<span style="color:white ;background:#660000;">&nbsp;'''GARDEN'''&nbsp;</span>]]</span></small>, <span style="font-family:cursive;">'''[[User:IMatthew|<span style="color:#007BA7">iMatthew</span>]] // [[User talk:IMatthew|<span style="color:#960018">talk</span>]]'''</span>, and [[User:Thehelpfulone|<span style="color:red;">'''The'''</span>]][[User_talk:Thehelpfulone|<span style="color:black;"> '''Helpful'''</span>]][[Special:Contributions/Thehelpfulone|<span style="color:red;"> '''One'''</span>]]

;<big>From the Judges</big>

What a brilliant finale to Round 1.  With so little in it it was always going to be a tight contest, particularly in the all-important wildcard places.  Congratulations to all those who have made it to Round 2, and commiserations to all who have been eliminated.  I hope you continue to contribute as fully as you have been in the tournament, if not better!

As has been stated before, Round 2 begins '''Wednesday, April 1 2009.'''  I hope you are all ready!

;<big>From the Judges</big>

The start of Round 2 has been in some respects an explosive one, with one user in particular almost in the triple figures after just a week.  There are obviously contestants with no points or very few, but as it is so early in the round this can probably be excused.  Keep it up everyone!

Note that due to unforeseen circumstances, Mitchazenia has been eliminated from the contest.  Apologies for any inconvenience caused.

;<big>From the Judges</big>

Only eleven days in this round to go and it's looking very interesting in the Wildcard race.  In particular there is an epic struggle for the automation progression spot at the top of Pool C with only two points in it as I type.  In other news, congratulations to Durova for her 200th successful featured picture nomination on the English Wikipedia - well done!

== RE: 10 Wiki Cup Newsletters!  ==

Hi,

You're welcome! I think the problem was caused with a mixture of Wikipedia Servers being slow, and my internet speed also being slow, as I was doing other things at the same time as running the bot task. Hopefully it won't happen again! :)

Thanks,

This is just a quick reminder that the round ends this Friday, '''May 29, 2009'''.
I wanted to let you guys know the current standings. If you are very close, but not close enough, work as hard as possible these next two days. Pool leaders are listed as usual, and under the '''10''' wildcards, are competitors that are still fighting for a spot. '''Also, if you currently have any un-reviewed GAN's up and you'd like them to be reviewed and counted for this round, you must place them on the appropriate thread of the WikiCup talk page.'''

;<big>From the Judges</big>
Hi all. Round 2 is officially over, and we're very pleased with the results. The lowest passing score was over 200! We are very impressed with the last minute pushes to get a spot, which many of you did through mainspace editing your butts off for the last week or so. We really hope that those of you who did a lot of mainspace editing this time around will take some of that and turn it into good and featured content next round.

The pools for Round 3 will be up soon; the round starts tomorrow, June 1, 2009. As always, nominations that were nominated last round but not passed yet, may count for this round. Hope to see you all working very hard, as you are down to the Top 16, and it's going to take a lot to make the Top 8!

Those of you who were eliminated and no longer wish to receive this newsletter may remove your name from [[Wikipedia:WikiCup/Newsletter/Send|this list]]. If you were eliminated, but are still looking for some fun editing competition, check out [[User:Shappy/Amazing Race Wikipedia]] which starts in July.

Good luck and congratulations to those who made it to Round 3, again!

;<big>From the Judges</big>
Wow, what a big start to Round 3! We already have people past the 50 point mark, in one week. We can tell that this round is going to be tight, and we'll likely see every Top 8 contestant with over 500 (maybe 400) points by the end of this round. Keep working hard! – '''[[User talk:Garden|<span style="color:#9999CC;">weburiedoursecretsinthe</span><span style="color:#000099;">garden</span>]]''', <small><span style="border:1px solid #4B0082;padding:1px;">&nbsp;[[User:iMatthew|<b>iMatthew</b>]] : [[User_talk:iMatthew|<span style="color:#ffffff;background:#4B0082;">&nbsp;Chat&nbsp;</span>]] </span></small>, and [[User:Thehelpfulone|<span style="color:red;">'''The'''</span>]][[User_talk:Thehelpfulone|<span style="color:black;"> '''Helpful'''</span>]][[Special:Contributions/Thehelpfulone|<span style="color:red;"> '''One'''</span>]]

;<big>From the Judges</big>
Turns out last week's newsletter was never sent out. Sorry about that! Since we already had it done, we are sending you both. This newsletter is the one for this week though. Anyway, we're seeing you guys working really hard. There are a few of you over 100 points in the first two weeks. Also, we have switched Ottava Rima from Pool D to Pool B, and Shoemaker's Holiday (who has withdrawn) from Pool B to Pool D. Scorpion0422 is more than likely to withdraw before this round ends, because he will be inactive next round. That would leave 2 contestants in Pool B. So, to make things fairly even, we have switched the two contestants. Sorry for all of the confusion!

Finally, we know it's very early, but you can already sign up for the '''[[Wikipedia:WikiCup/2010 Signups|2010 WikiCup, here]]'''! We want to get everything ready way in advance for next year. So we opened the list up, and we'll start working things out in September/October, most likely. Information is all on the page, and you may leave any questions on the talk page. So go sign up before your favorite flag is taken!

;<big>From the Judges</big>

Some did well this week, but a lot of you didn't move much. Some are still hanging under the 200 mark. Our current top 8 are all over 200, so if you are below that line, get moving! There is a poll up at the [[WT:CUP|talk page]] about the rest of this year's competition. If all of you could give your opinion there, it would be very much appreciated.

;<big>From the Judges</big>

There were a few mistakes in last weeks' newsletter. Apologies about that. In regards to the competition, a few of you shot up in points this week. Very, very impressive. However, now that some have shot up to the top, others of you have to work even harder to catch up! There are about 3 weeks left in the round, so if you're behind, now is really the time to start nominating content, so that it can count for this round. If you wait too long, we won't be able to hold off the round while your content is being reviewed.

Per [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiCup#Shortening_the_competition.3F this] tiny poll, the remainder of the competition has been altered.. sorry!! The changes being made are as follows: "We will be combining the last three rounds. Round 4 will now last from August through September, with 8 contestants. On September 1st, however, we will eliminate the bottom four contestants. The top four contestants will continue the round with the same score. Then, one person will win out of the remaining four on September 30th." You can also see [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia%3AWikiCup&diff=301571151&oldid=298881740 this] change to the main WikiCup page.

Lastly, we'd like to welcome back Shoemaker's Holiday into the competition!

== WikiCup participates in the [[Wikipedia:The Great Wikipedia Dramaout]] ==
Hello all, iMatthew here. I just wanted to let you know about "The Great Wikipedia Dramaout" which starts this Saturday. The goal of the Dramaout is to spend five days working on improving articles and abstaining from any of Wikipedia's drama. I don't think that any of you will have a problem focusing on articles for five days, because of course, any work you get done during the Dramaout will count towards your score in the WikiCup. Details are on the page; hope to see you all signing up! :) '''[[User:IMatthew|<span style="font-family:Century Gothic;color:#000080">iMatthew</span>]]&nbsp;<span style="font-family:Century Gothic;color:#007BA7">[[User_talk:IMatthew|<span style="font-family:Century Gothic;color:#007BA7"><sup>talk</sup></span>]]</span>''' at 00:27, 17 July 2009 (UTC)

;<big>From the Judges</big>

About two weeks left, now. To those of you in the back, don't give up. There is still enough time to get some more work done. To those of you in the front relaxing... don't. We've seen it happen before, where users in the back will jump ahead in the final weeks and make it though.

We'd also like to wave goodbye to Scorpion0422, and thank him for all of his hard work this round even though he knew he needed to withdraw at the end of it.

;<big>From the Judges</big>

The round is over in about four days from now. Sit back, watch your nominations being reviewed, and hope for the best. In these four days, you don't have much control over your score. It's what you did prior to now, that's going to pile up your points (or not). We're very, very pleased with this round's results so far, and of course hoping to see some more submitted before the round ends.

Not much else to say for now, but you'll all be getting a newsletter on Thursday or Friday between rounds.

;<big>From the Judges</big>

Right, last newsletter before the next round and it's a congratulations to eight of you lot.  Unfortunately we say goodbye to a fair few users along the way but that is the competition.  Next round, there will only be one pool which will see the lowest scoring users eliminated halfway into the round.  Should be good fun!  Get your nominations in soon!

Dear [[WP:WikiProject Video games|WikiProject Video games]] member,

You are receiving this message because you have either [[:Category:WikiProject Video games members]] or {{tl|User WPVG}} somewhere in your [[Wikipedia:User page|userspace]] and you have edited Wikipedia in the recent months.

The Video games project has created a [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Video games/Members|member list]] to provide a clearer picture of its active membership. 

All members have currently been placed in the "Inactive" section by default. Please remove your username from the "Inactive" listing and place it under the "Active" listing if you plan on regularly:
:*Editing video game-related pages in the [[Wikipedia:Main namespace|Article namespace]]
:*Participating in video game-related discussions in the [[Wikipedia:Project namespace|Project namespace]] ([[WT:VG]], [[WP:AfD]], [[WP:GAN]], etc.)

Ideally, members are encouraged to do both, but either one meets our criteria of inclusion. Members still listed inactive at the beginning of November 2009 may be removed. You may re-add yourself to the active list at any time. Thank you for your help, and we look forward to working with you.

;<big>From the Judges</big>

Four days left! :(

I can't image any way that something you nominate even as early as today will pass before Wednesday. If anything you've already nominated passes between now and Wednesday, or you still have things you haven't added to your submission pages, now is the time to do it! This half of the round ends this Wednesday (September 30) at 23:59 (UTC), and the bottom four contestants will be eliminated. The top four will keep their score from the first half, and continue competing through October 31. Good luck everyone!

On 24 September 2009 you appeared to move me from active to inactive list immediately after I did the opposite. [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia%3AWikiProject_Video_games%2FMembers&action=historysubmit&diff=315934827&oldid=315934642] I assume this was due to an edit conflict. I have only just discovered the error, and I may not have discovered it at all. Please be careful and when getting an edit conflict and try not to overwrite others edits. Thanks. [[User:Camaron|Camaron<span style="font-weight:bold;">&nbsp;·</span>  Christopher]]<small><span style="font-weight:bold;">&nbsp;·</span> [[User talk:Camaron|talk]]</small> 20:06, 8 October 2009 (UTC)

In fact you moved my name back and added yours to the active list in two separate edits leaving me even more confused. [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia%3AWikiProject_Video_games%2FMembers&action=historysubmit&diff=315934741&oldid=315934642] If this was intentional I would appreciate a note and reason for it on my talk page next time, plus an edit summary so I can find who did what in the edit history more easily.

;<big>From the Judges</big>
Hi everyone! We're very sorry we didn't get this one out anytime sooner. We've all been pretty busy IRL. But down to business: Since the last newsletter, the first half of the round has ended. We said goodbye to Candlewicke, Juliancolton, and Mitchazenia. We'd like to thank them for all of their hard work getting this far. Shoemaker's Holiday has also withdrawn, so we'd like to thank him for his hard work too. Congratulations to Durova, Ottava Rima, Sasata, and Theleftorium for making the top 4! Good luck to you all.

You also may have seen from the WikiCup talk page that we have a new judge! [[User:J Milburn|J Milburn]] is joining our judging team effective immediately. J was assigned after Garden and Thehelpfulone announced they would be highly inactive throughout the remainder of the WikiCup. It is likely you will see J return as a judge next year as well.

Good luck again to the remaining four contestants! 20 days left in the Round, so make sure you get all your content nominated soon! You've all worked hard for this, since the beginning of January. I'm sure you're all tired by now, but you've come too far to just give up now. Congratulations Top 4!

;<big>From the Judges</big>
It just came to me that multiple users have worked together on a bunch of content items, which means the newsletter counts are likely off. I'll try to put that all together and figure it out by the end of the round.

The end of the round, and the end of the 2009 WikiCup is this coming Saturday, October 31! To our top four: don't give up yet. Make sure that anything you have left to nominate is nominated today or tomorrow, for the slighted chance of it passing in time. The last day items will be accepted is Saturday, at 23:59 (UTC). It ain't over till the fat lady sings, of course!

== 2010 WikiCup Signups Reconfirmation! ==

To ensure that everyone who signed up is still committed to participating in the 2010 WikiCup, it is required that you remove your name from '''[[Wikipedia:WikiCup/2010 Signups/Reconfirmation|this list]]'''! By removing your name, you are '''not''' removing yourself from the WikiCup. This is simply a way for the judges to take note of who has not yet reconfirmed their participation. If you have not removed your name from that list by December 30th, 2009 (by 23:59 (UTC)) then your name will be removed from the WikiCup.

It's worth noting the rules have changed, likely after you signed up. The changes made thus far are:
*Mainspace and/or portal edits will not be awarded points at all.
*Did you know? articles (which were worth 5 points last year) will now be worth 10 points.
*Good articles (which were worth 30 points last year) will now be worth 40 points.
*Valued pictures will be now awarded points, however the amount (5 or 10 points) is still being discussed.
*Featured lists (which were worth 30 points last year) will now be worth 40 points.
*Featured portals (which were worth 25 points last year) will now be worth 35 points.
*Featured articles (which were worth 50 points last year) will now be worth 100 points.
*Featured topics (which were worth 10 points per article last year) will now be worth 15 points per any article in the topic that you were a major contributor to.
*Good topics (which were worth 5 points per article last year) will now be worth 10 points per any article in the topic that you were a major contributor to.
*In the news will still be awarded points, however the amount (5 or 10 points) is still being discussed.

If you have any final concerns about the WikiCup's rules and regulations, please ask them now, before the Cup begins to avoid last minute problems. You may come to the WikiCup's talk page, or any of the judge's user talk pages. We're looking forwards to a great 2010 WikiCup!

Hi {{BASEPAGENAME}}! The flag you chose for the 2010 WikiCup was removed either because it was already taken by another editor, or it didn't meet the criteria. Please select a new flag before this Friday, that is "under a free license that is of a (current or historical) continent, country, state, county or city and has NOT already been chosen by another contestant."

== The 2010 WikiCup begins tomorrow! ==




[[File:Trophy.png|right]]
Welcome to the biggest WikiCup Wikipedia has yet seen! Round one will take place over two months, and finish on February 26. There is only one pool, and the top 64 will progress. The competition will be tough, as more than half of the current competitors will not make it to round 2. Details about scoring have been finalized and are explained at [[Wikipedia:WikiCup/Scoring]]. Please make sure you're familiar with the scoring rules, because any submissions made that violate these rules will be removed. Like always, the judges can be reached through the WikiCup talk pages, on their talk page, or over IRC with any issues concerning anything tied to the Cup. We will keep in contact with you via weekly newsletters; if you do not want to receive them, please remove yourself from the list [[Wikipedia:WikiCup/Newsletter/2009/Send|here]]. Conversely, if a non-WikiCup participant wishes to receive the newsletters, they may add themselves to that list. Well, enough talk- get writing! Your submission's page is located [[Wikipedia:WikiCup/History/2010/Submissions/Clyde1998|here]]. Details on how to submit your content is located [[Wikipedia:WikiCup/Submissions|here]], so be sure to check that out! Once content has been recognized, it can be added to your submissions page, from which our bot will update the main score table. Remember that only articles worked on and nominated during the competition are eligible for points. Have fun, and good luck!

;<big>From the Judges</big>

Well, it was a long, long ride, with plenty of ups as well as downs (but I'm sure you'll agree, definitely more ups).  It's been ten long months since our kick-off in January, and the level of competition has intensified so much so quickly.  It's a wonder there was any puff left in our final eight by the end, but they fought to the death and, eventually, '''Durova''' pulled through, making her proficiency with FPs count as the contest drew to a close.  Special mentions must go to the other members of the last four, '''Ottava Rima''', '''Sasata''' and '''Theleftorium''', all of whom put in a astonishing shift in their efforts to peel Durova away from her victory.  Congratulations again!

The announcement of '''the ed17''' as the newest judge to the WikiCup panel was made today - I wish him all the best in his new role.
