SignposteditHi, I was just taking a look at your draft for the Featured Content section of the Signpost and just as an idea...SheiKra became Wikipedia's first amusement attraction/ride related article to become a Featured Article so maybe put a mention in the article saying this (as it is a pretty big "milestone"). Now don't take this the wrong way in that I'm telling you this just because I was the nominator....that's not the reason. The only reason is because it is a significant promotion in Wikipedia's history.--Dom497 (talk) 01:03, 17 June 2013 (UTC)

Signpost featured content:editHello, thanks for your work writing the featured content reports for the Signpost. However, please don't put blank lines between list items; it makes the lists of featured content more difficult to read for screen reader users like myself. See the relevant section of the accessibility guideline for more details. I've fixed this a few times in various Signpost issues, but I'm not sure if you were aware of the problem.

Assignment OneeditDone :) While I've generally known about different types of vandalism, I've never actually searched for a specific type before . .and it wasn't as easy I thought it would be. . . so I didn't end up looking for a needle in a haystack, I learned how to better utilize the recent changes patrol, making good use of it's search options.
Bend Her and the SignposteditJust a heads up on a mistake I just caught: You managed to turn an image of Bend Her - a burlesque featuring horses on roller skates and female protagonists very loosely based on Ben-Hur - into an actual stage performance of Ben-Hur. There's an important difference there, I think you'll agree. Adam Cuerden (talk) 10:38, 23 June 2013 (UTC)
Hey, I saw this needed a review at GAN as part of staying part of a topic, so I had a look. It's on hold. We can fix this up reasonably quickly I think. A few English grammar issues, but nothing we can't sort out. Let me know how you're getting on, or if you need more comments or explanations. Best wishes, The Rambling Man (talk) 15:38, 23 June 2013 (UTC)
Just out of curiosity...editRemember how you mentioned that you were working on a script to make passing/failing/holding/asking for a second opinion easier for reviewers during the RfC? How's that going along? I know your busy so don't think that I have expectations of you (I really don't).....I'm just asking because I just want to know the "status" of this project.--Dom497 (talk) 17:58, 23 June 2013 (UTC)

WikiCup 2013 June newslettereditWe are down to our final 16: the 2013 semi-finals are upon us. A score of 321 was required to survive round 3, further cementing this as the most competitive WikiCup yet; round 3 was survived in 2012 with 243 points, in 2011 with 76 points and in 2010 with 250 points. The change may in part be to do with the fact that more articles are now awarded bonus points, in addition to more competitive play. Reaching the final has, in the past, required 573 points (2012, a 135% increase on the score needed to reach round 4), 150 points (2011, a 97% increase) and 417 points (2010, a 72% increase). This round has seen over a third of participants claiming points for featured articles (with seven users claiming for multiple featured articles) and most users have also gained bonus points. However, the majority of points continue to come from good articles, followed by did you know articles. In this round, every content type was utilised by at least one user, proving that the WikiCup brings together content contributors from all corners of the project. Round 3 saw a number of contributions of note. Figureskatingfan (submissions) claimed the first featured topic points in this year's competition for her excellent work on topics related to Maya Angelou, the noted American author and poet. We have also continued to see high-importance articles improved as part of the competition: Ealdgyth (submissions) was awarded a thoroughly well-earned 560 points for her featured article Middle Ages and 102 points for her good article Battle of Hastings. Good articles James Chadwick and Stanislaw Ulam netted Hawkeye7 (submissions) 102 and 72 points respectively, while 72 points were awarded to Piotrus (submissions) for each of Władysław Sikorski and Emilia Plater, both recently promoted to good article status. Collaborative efforts between WikiCup participants have continued, with, for example, Casliber (submissions) and Sasata (submissions) being awarded 180 points each for their featured article on Boletus luridus. A rules reminder: content promoted between rounds can be claimed in the round after the break, but not the round before. The case in point is content promoted on the 29/30 June, which may be claimed in this round. 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. We are currently seeing concern about the amount of time people have to wait for reviews, especially at GAC- if you want to help out with the WikiCup, please do your bit to reduce the review backlogs! Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. Good luck!

In my humblest opinion, overlinking is never beneficial. Even on lists that contain tables that can be rearranged or sorted, I'd advice to only use as much links as needed, and fewer as possible. For example, if you link something in the lead, then you should only link it once in the list body and once in the references. Usually, the link goes in the first occurrence of the word, and subsequent occurrences go unlinked. The primary goal of this approach is to avoid having the so-called "sea of blue" that can distract the reader from the list itself.
In this specific case, I see that Daytime Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series has a lot of things linked more than once (especially the programs), and I would advice against that. You should order the links from top to bottom according to the "default" sorting, as readers would certainly look through the list this way before sorting the table to a different order. However, most of these things are personal and reviewer preference and some lists are okay with a bunch of links, and some are okay without them. It is all in the eyes of the beholder. Cheers. — ΛΧΣ21 00:30, 22 July 2013 (UTC)

WikiCup 2013 July newslettereditWe're halfway through this year's penultimate round, and the competition is moving along well. Pool A's Sasata (submissions) currently leads overall, while Pool B's Sturmvogel_66 (submissions) is second. Both leaders are WikiCup veterans, and both have already scored over 600 points this month. If the round were to end today, Miyagawa (submissions), with 274 points, would be the lowest-scoring participant to make it through. This indicates that participants will need a score comparable to last year's (573, the highest ever) to qualify for the final. The high scores this year are a testament both to the quality of participants and to the increased focus on significant content (eligible for bonus points) in this year's competition. So far this round, both Sasata and Cwmhiraeth (submissions) have made up over half of their score through bonus points, with, for example, high importance FA koala earning Sasata a total of 440 points (from a multiplier of 4.4) and high-importance GA sea earning Cwmhiraeth a total of 216 points (from a multiplier of 7.2). Other articles on important topics submitted this round include a featured article on the Norman conquest of England by Ealdgyth (submissions), and good articles on Nobel laureate in literature Henryk Sienkiewicz, Nobel laureate in physics Hans Bethe, and the noted Japanese aircraft carrier Hiryū. These articles are by Piotrus (submissions), Hawkeye7 (submissions) and Sturmvogel_66 respectively. Other than that, there is not much to report! 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. If you want to help out with the WikiCup, please do your bit to reduce the review backlogs!
