This round has seen an unusually high number of featured lists, with nearly one in five remaining participants claiming one, and one user, {{Wikipedia:WikiCup/Participant3|Muboshgu}}, claiming two. Miyagawa's featured list, [[1936 Summer Olympics medal table]], was even awarded double points. By comparison, good article reviews seem to be playing a smaller part, and featured topics portals remain two content-types still unutilised in this competition. Other than that, there isn't much to say! Things are coming along smoothly. As ever, 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]]. Questions are welcome on [[Wikipedia talk:WikiCup]], and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email.

Subpages of Template:X1
Why are you relying on a sandbox template for your bot to work? Is there a particular reason why you can't just put this in your bot's namespace? I wasn't under the impression that anyone owned Template:X1. Frietjes (talk) 19:11, 28 May 2012 (UTC)
- Is there a particular reason you had to edit those sandbox pages? →Στc. 19:22, 28 May 2012 (UTC)
- sure, general sandbox test edits. the same reason why anyone edits sandbox pages. Frietjes (talk) 19:35, 28 May 2012 (UTC)
- It was clearly marked that those subpages were used by a bot. You ignored the notice for no reason other than that they were sandbox subpages.
- A large number of other general sandboxes exist around the wiki that you could have used instead. I'm curious as to why you decided to use that one, as "metatemplate" and unknown as it was, in particular. →Στc. 20:26, 28 May 2012 (UTC)
- is there any particular reason why you are avoiding answering my initial question? Frietjes (talk) 20:47, 28 May 2012 (UTC)
- OK. "If it ain't broke, don't fix it". →Στc. 21:40, 28 May 2012 (UTC)

Purpose of Template:NUMBEROFFOUNDERS
Hi, I'm just wondering what's the purpose of Template:NUMBEROFFOUNDERS, which you created, as it doesn't seem to be used anywhere and merely displays "1". If it indeed serves no purpose, you may request it be deleted by tagging it with {{Db-author}}, but if it does serve a purpose, I would encourage you to add some documentation to the template and place it in an appropriate category. Thanks. balloonguy (talk) 17:46, 30 May 2012 (UTC)
- It was so long ago, but I think I had created it to imitate some magic words, such as {{NUMBEROFADMINS}}. A G7 tag has been applied. →Στc. 08:11, 31 May 2012 (UTC)
WikiCup 2012 May newsletter
We're halfway through round 3 (or the quarter finals, if you prefer) and things are running smoothly. We're seeing very high scoring; as of the time of writing, the top 16 all have over 90 points. This has already proved to be more competative than this time last year- in 2011, 76 points secured a place, while in 2010, a massive 250 was the lowest qualifying score. People have also upped their game slightly from last round, which is to be expected as we approach the end of the competition. Leading Pool A is Cwmhiraeth (submissions), whose points have mostly come from a large number of did you knows on marine biology. Pool B's leader, Grapple X (submissions), is for the first time not our highest scorer at the time of newsletter publication, but his good articles on The X-Files and Millenium keep him in second place overall. Miyagawa (submissions) leads Pool C, our quietest pool, with content in a variety of areas on a variety of topics. Pool D is led by Casliber (submissions), our current overall leader. Nearly half of Casliber's points come from his triple-scored Western Jackdaw, which is now a featured article.
This round has seen an unusually high number of featured lists, with nearly one in five remaining participants claiming one, and one user, Muboshgu (submissions), claiming two. Miyagawa's featured list, 1936 Summer Olympics medal table, was even awarded double points. By comparison, good article reviews seem to be playing a smaller part, and featured topics portals remain two content-types still unutilised in this competition. Other than that, there isn't much to say! Things are coming along smoothly. As ever, 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.
