Hello!

Hello, Schminnte,

I was surprised a few months ago to see the Retired banner on your User talk page as you had been so active there for a while. I see you have recently edited so I'm just posting a note to say that you are missed. I completely understand if this project was taking up too much of your time or that off-wiki events became more important than this little hobby of ours. But your absence has been noticed and I hope you are doing well, whatever you are spending your time on. Take care. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 20:07, 24 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you @Liz, it means a lot to hear this from you. Schminnte^{[talk to me]} 22:12, 24 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome back! It's good to see you again. —Ingenuity (t • c) 17:03, 4 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

As it is to see you! Burnout has mostly alleviated, and I did start missing the community. Looking forward to more work and creation. Schminnte^{[talk to me]} 17:08, 4 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome back! — Jon (talk) 19:56, 7 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

They have conducted 357 featured content reviews, as well as 553 good article reviews and peer reviews, and have added 30 articles to featured topics and good topics.

Any content promoted after 29 August but before the start of Round 5 can be claimed during Round 5, which starts on 1 September at 00:00 (UTC). Invitations for collaborative writing efforts or any other discussion of potentially interesting work is always welcome on the WikiCup talk page. If two or more WikiCup competitors have done significant work on an article, all can claim points.

Remember to claim your points within 14 days of earning them, and importantly, before the deadline on 31 October.
