The fourth round of the competition has finished, with anyone scoring less than 673 points being eliminated. It was a high scoring round with all but one of the contestants who progressed to the final having achieved an FA during the round. The highest scorers were |
|||
*{{flagicon|New York (state)}} [[User:Epicgenius|Epicgenius]], with 2173 points topping the scores, gained mainly from a featured article, 38 good articles and 9 DYKs. He was followed by |
|||
*{{flagicon image|Transgender Pride flag.svg|link=Transgender}} [[User:Sammi Brie|Sammi Brie]], with 1575 points, gained mainly from a featured article, 28 good articles and 50 good article reviews. Close behind was |
|||
*{{flagicon image|Flag of Mars.svg|link=Mars}} [[User:Thebiguglyalien|Thebiguglyalien]], with 1535 points mainly gained from a featured article, 15 good articles, 26 good article reviews and lots of bonus points. |
|||
Between them during round 4, contestants achieved 12 featured articles, 3 featured lists, 3 featured pictures, 126 good articles, 46 DYK entries, 14 ITN entries, 67 featured article candidate reviews and 147 good article reviews. Congratulations to our eight finalists and all who participated! It was a generally high-scoring and productive round and I think we can expect a highly competitive finish to the competition. |
|||
Remember that any content promoted after the end of round 4 but before the start of round 5 can be claimed in round 5. Remember too that you must claim your points within 10 days of "earning" them and within 24 hours of the end of the final. If you are concerned that your nomination will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on [[Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews]]. It would be helpful if this list could be cleared of any items no longer relevant. If you want to help out with the WikiCup, please do your bit to keep down the review backlogs! Questions are welcome on [[Wikipedia talk:WikiCup]], and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. <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> |

I will be standing down as a judge after the end of the contest. I think the Cup encourages productive editors to improve their contributions to Wikipedia and I hope that someone else will step up to take over the running of the Cup.

== Reminder to participate in Wikipedia research == |
|||
Hello, |
|||
I recently invited you to take a survey about administration on Wikipedia. If you haven’t yet had a chance, there is still time to participate– we’d truly appreciate your feedback. The survey is anonymous and should take about 10-15 minutes to complete. You may read more about the study on its [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Research:Wikipedia Administrator Recruitment, Retention, and Attrition|Meta page]] and view its [[wmf:Special:MyLanguage/Legal:Administrator Experiences 2024 Survey Privacy Statement|privacy statement]]. |
|||
Take the survey '''[https://wikimediafoundation.limesurvey.net/294789?lang=en here]'''. |
|||
Kind Regards, |
|||
[[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Research|WMF Research Team]] |

* Following [[Wikipedia talk:Administrators#RFC: Resysoppings after five years with no administrative actions|an RFC]], the [[Wikipedia:Administrators#Restoration of adminship|policy on restoration of adminship]] has been updated.

Previously this applied only to administrators deysopped for inactivity. |
|||
* Following a [[Wikipedia talk:Criteria for speedy deletion#RfC: Enacting T5 (unused template subpages)|request for comment]], a new speedy deletion criterion, [[WP:T5|T5]], has been enacted. This applies to template subpages that are no longer used. |
