Round 1 is already over! The 64 highest scorers have progressed to round 2. Our highest scorer was Grapple X (submissions), again thanks mostly to a swathe of good articles on The X-Files. In second place was Tigerboy1966 (submissions), thanks an impressive list of did you knows about racehorses. Both scored over 400 points. Following behind with over 300 points were Ruby2010 (submissions), Cwmhiraeth (submissions), Miyagawa (submissions) and Casliber (submissions). February also saw the competition's first featured list: List of colleges and universities in North Dakota, from Ruby2010 (submissions). At the other end of the scale, 11 points was enough to secure a place in this round, and some contestants with 10 points made it into the round on a tiebreaker. This is higher than the 8 points that were needed last year, but lower than the 20 points required the year before. The number of points required to progress to round 3 will be significantly higher.

The remaining contestants have been split into 8 pools of 8, named A through H. Round two will finish in two months time on 28 April, when the two highest scorers in each pool, as well as the next 16 highest scorers, will progress to round 3. The pools were entirely random, so while some pools may end up being more competitive than others, this is by chance rather than design.

The judges would like to point out two quick rules reminders. First, any content promoted during the interim period (that is, on or after 27 February) is eligible for points in round 2. Second, any content worked on significantly this year is eligible for points if promoted in this round. On a related note, if you are concerned that your nomination, be it at good article candidates, a featured process or anywhere else, will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews. However, please remember to continue to offer reviews at GAC, FAC and all the other pages that require them to prevent any backlogs which would otherwise be caused by the Cup. As ever, questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. Good luck!

Hey there. I come to you with an interesting dilemma in regards to the 2012 Formula Renault UK season article page. At present, an IP has placed completely inaccurate information on the page; I believe it to be the IP entering his own name on the page, with a made-up team name to boot. According to Google, the only known reference to a "Kieran Baxter" appears to be a kart racer, rather than a single-seater driver. Likewise for a "Ktech Grand Prix". If I revert the page once more, I'd be in violation of 3RR; the IP has been warned by myself, and another user, after a similar edit pattern on the 2010 Formula Renault UK season page. As much as it pains that I cannot revert the page, I am a bit of a perfectionist in wanting it with all the right info, if you catch my drift! Haha.

Oh, absolutely...it just goes to show that you don't realise how many times such IPs want to get their way, and make themselves famous on Wiki...not all IPs, but so many...I think with our combined experiences on the site, we must have seen many thousands attempt to get "some fame".

Yeeah so... I just got a message saying I should stop editing articles on Wikipedia... but... I haven't edited any articles on Wikipedia recently... haven't actually been on half the articles I've been accused of editing...

...apparently you're the one that told me to stop... I think...

• doesn't really know what he's doing right now*

Anyways, just wanted to give you a heads up that I'm not actually doing anything. I was just looking through the List of Touhou Characters page when I got the message...

...pretty sure nobody else using this IP address has any interest in editing Wiki either... no idea who's making the edits or how they're doing it...

...anywhoo! You can delete this message/edit/whatever-it-is once you get it... I'm not really sure how to message you personally so this is the only way I can inform you I guess... I'm not even sure if this message has a real point...

Hi there - it's entirely possible that that warning was aimed at another user; dynamic IP addresses can cause that to happen sometimes!

• Bushranger I know you get a lot of request and comments that begin with "If you delete that page....!" This is not one of them. I am posting on your talk page to try and keep the emotions down where Stephano does read.

I will state right up front that, that page does meet policy for deletion. A lot of other pages on Wiki do also, but are not deleted -- ie and an exception does not change policy either. Stephano has really dug a big hole for himself, and is still digging. As one Wiki Essay advises "Step Away From the Carcass." he can't mainly because of his wounded sense of honor - ie while we agree he should not, he still does. He just can't do it. And worst his fixation as Dave as an enemy where there was one has made him one. But I worked with him on a few pages that involved Italian weapons and he was extremely helpful. What ever his faults he is good in his field. He left me a message and I read the Talk:Hawker Hunter. I told him in the beginning he would not like my advise. I advised him to do one or two things (I would have advised him to step away but I knew that was not a starter): 1> To take down a lot of his entries on the Hunter page and re-enter it slowly so where editors good in English and Aviation could look it over and offer recommendation. Maybe a small paragraph once a week or twice a month. 2> I did not know he started it but to post the info on a Swiss AF page or Hunter in Swiss Service page. The Swiss have a habit of buying combat aircraft and keeping them in service longer than the country that designed and built them does -- eg the /DH Venom fighter/bomber. He took the second option to the bank.

And if that page is deleted NOW or real soon it will be more than rubbing salt in his wounded honor, but to him it will be acid. Could the other administrators consider put off deleting that page for several months (I will even enter it in my calender and inform you when times up) or else merge the information that has reliable citations to the Hunter article? I know Wiki is not a hospital or the UN. But I honestly don't see the harm in allowing that page to exist a few more months. Although when I first came to Wiki I was Wiki-Stupid and have not advanced very far since then. I will even do hard search on Swiss Hunters and finds some reliable citation. GAWD, knows I do enough for other articles that have nil or no citations -- ie recently the Martin P6M SeaMaster page and Martin's attempt to market a civilian version called the SeaMistree. Why? Only a Martian could explain. In addition I would like to comment on Dave in this affair. He tried to help and talk Stephano back off this one way ladder he has climbed up. He is to be commended on this issue. He really tried and I am making one last attempt. I sent Stephano the essay Wikipedia:No angry mastodons but I don't know if he read it.

Finally, thanks for taking the time to read this long message. But if you consider I have no business in this discussion, say so and that will be the last message I post anywhere on Wiki on this subject. Jack E.

• For the record, this Indian boy is a troll or was trolling for fire (BR, this reminds me of OH-6 flying low deliberately to draw for enemy fire), look at his comment and you'll see. Note that I have a very low tolerance for trolls and vandal, so as such I have been the target of such imbeciles from the start of my wiki-career. BR is well aware and can vouch for me that I have a secret-admirer/stalker/impostor out there who would actually stalk and harass those editor(s) who harass me while imposting as me, what I'm doing is nothing less than trying to deflect that from the Indian boy should he carry on with harassing me and then getting that secret-admirer/stalker/impostor to latch on his tail instead. Yes, I may have been a wee bit mad at that moment when I commented to him but I'm not stupid. Him, on the other hand, is just plain stupid for going down that path until eventually that secret-admirer/stalker/impostor reacts to him. What are we to do then? Lastly, the Indian boy had actually picked a very convenient date (end of our one month mutual interaction ban) to revert my edit so I'm fully entitled to be mad at him for being an moronic/insensitive jerk, especially at the condescending tone in his edit summary during that particular revert. Tell me now, does it take two hands or one to clap? In honour of that interaction ban, I've stayed away from him for one whole month (to the letter and the spirit of the law that requires of me but he did so only to the letter) and yet at the end of it, he has the galls to come pick on my edit? Come on, how oxymoron can that be that he is indeed trolling by all account? And both times, he goes to ANI, he doesn't have the courtesy to post an ANI-notice on my page, tell me now if that is not trolling? Forgetting twice? How convenient for an excuse, the nerve of this boy. --Dave ^{♠♣♥♦™№1185©♪♫®} 11:45, 17 March 2012 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2012-03-17T11:45:00.000Z","author":"Dave1185","type":"comment","level":6,"id":"c-Dave1185-2012-03-17T11:45:00.000Z-Drmies-2012-03-17T02:08:00.000Z","replies":["c-The_ed17-2012-03-17T11:50:00.000Z-Dave1185-2012-03-17T11:45:00.000Z"],"displayName":"Dave"}}-->

What a rotten film to end an illustrious career, no wonder William Wellman was so incensed at the cavalier treatment dolled out by Jack L. Warner in re-editing and re-staging Lafayette Escadrille (film), from a man he personally detested. FWiW, however, I was suitably inspired to rewrite the article as it was a mess, and had no reference sources to back up any of the odd claims made about Wellman.

Greetings,

I'm curious about the origin of the photo posted in the article about Michael Stroukoff Sr., my father. In all honesty, I don't think it actually is a picture of him. I'm a newbie here, and am not sure how to upload a copy of a known portrait of him. Here is a link to the image on Ancestry.com

http://trees.ancestry.com/tree/8912076/person/-876547621/media/1?pgnum=1&pg=0&pgpl=pid%7cpgNum

If nothing else, it's a significantly better image of him; it's a portrait from the 1950's.

Unfortunatly, I can't see your link; I don't remember how I found the photo (likely just Google Images...) originally.

            • Headache... the more I look at Romania, the more I'm inclined to remove it from the list of operators as the claim that the MiG-21 Lancer upgrade has cleared it to carry the Python-3 but it did not necessarily mean that the Israelis supplied any to the Romanians.

On 21 March 2012, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article David Mayhew (racing driver), which you created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that NASCAR driver David Mayhew drove for Kevin Harvick Incorporated in two Camping World Truck Series races in 2011, and finished third in both races? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/David Mayhew (racing driver).You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, quick check) and add it to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page.

Article of the month – 2010 Auto Club 500, a Good Article The 2010 Auto Club 500 was a NASCAR Sprint Cup Series stock car race held on February 21, 2010 at Auto Club Speedway in Fontana, California. Contested over 250 laps, it was the second race of the 2010 Sprint Cup Series season. The race was won by Jimmie Johnson for the Hendrick Motorsports team. Kevin Harvick finished second, and Jeff Burton, who started fourteenth, clinched third. Pole position driver Jamie McMurray maintained his lead into the first corner, but Juan Pablo Montoya, who had started in the second position on the grid, took the lead before the first lap was over. Afterward, Johnson became the leader, and would eventually lead to the race high of 101 laps. During the final pit stops, Johnson was on pit lane as the caution flag came out. Burton, who led the race during Johnson's pit stop, did not pass Johnson to put him a lap down. Therefore, Johnson retained the first position upon the completion of his pit stop. On the final lap, Harvick was gaining on Johnson, but Johnson maintained his position to win his first race of the season. There were six caution flags and twenty-eight lead changes among fourteen different drivers throughout the course of the race. The result moved Johnson up twenty-three spots to tenth in the Drivers' Championship, 78 points behind of leader Kevin Harvick and one ahead of Kyle Busch.

I'm leaving this message for known script authors, recent contributors to Wikipedia:WikiProject User scripts/Scripts, and those who've shown interest in user scripts.

This scripts listing page is in dire need of cleanup. To facilitate this, I've created a new draft listing at Wikipedia:WikiProject User scripts/Scripts cleanup. You're invited to list scripts you know to be currently working and relevant. Eventually this draft page can replace the current scripts listing.

If you'd like to comment or collaborate on this proposal, see the discussion I started here: Wikipedia talk:WikiProject User scripts#Scripts listing cleanup project. Thanks! Equazcion ^(talk) 04:47, 25 Mar 2012 (UTC)

• • "Better not come any closer!" According to WP:CAT, "Each article should be placed in all of the most specific categories to which it logically belongs. This means that if a page belongs to a subcategory of C (or a subcategory of a subcategory of C, and so on) then it is not normally placed directly into C." (emphasis in original).

On 31 March 2012, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article The Flying Fleet, which you recently nominated. The fact was ... that The Flying Fleet's female lead, Anita Page, described co-star Ramón Novarro as "something to dream about"? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/The Flying Fleet. If you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page.

We are over half way through the second round of this year's WikiCup and things are going well! Grapple X (submissions), of Pool B, is our highest overall scorer thanks to his prolific writings on television and film. In second place is Pool H's Cwmhiraeth (submissions), thanks primarily to work on biological articles, especially in marine biology and herpetology. Third place goes to Pool E's Casliber (submissions), who also writes primarily on biology (including ornithology and botany) and has already submitted two featured articles this round. Of the 63 contestants remaining, 15 (just under a quarter) have over 100 points this round. However, 25 are yet to score. Please remember to update your submission pages promptly. 32 contestants, the top two from each pool and the 16 next-highest scorers, will advance to round 3.

Congratulations to Matthewedwards (submissions), whose impressive File:Wacht am Rhein map (Opaque).svg became the competition's first featured picture. Also, congratulations to 12george1 (submissions), who claimed good topic points, our first contestant this year to do so, for his work on Wikipedia:Featured topics/1982 Atlantic hurricane season. This leaves featured topics and featured portals as the only sources of points not yet utilised. However, as recent statistics from Miyagawa (submissions) show, no source has yet been utilised this competition to the same extent it has been previously!

It has been observed that the backlogs at good article candidates are building up again. While the points for good article reviews will be remaining constant, any help that can be offered keeping the backlog down would be appreciated. On a related note, if you are concerned that your nomination, be it at good article candidates, a featured process or anywhere else, will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews. As ever, questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. Good luck!

Hello Sir

I suspect that the user "Amarru" is a sockpuppet (double profile) because he is behind the same false edits and vandalism in threads concerning Spanish football (especially the thread called "Football records in Spain") The sock puppet I am referring to is a now banned user RealCowboys.

The user might also be another editor who got blocked twice whose latest username was Seaboy123.

If you could check his IP address I would be thankful. If it is not the same person I apologize and ignore this post.

Thank you.

Hmm, thanks for the heads-up. I've looked over the contribution history of all three editors, and while there are some similarities in editing style and subject, there's just enough differences that I can't declare any to be WP:DUCKs.

Thank you very much. Yes, after seeing his vandalism in the "Football records in Spanish football" thread I am inclined to conclude that he resembles the banned user Seaboy123 more considering the fact that RealCowboys has had 2 accounts banned, one of them recently. So you might be spot on. I also saw his profile where he wrote "Dead man walking" - maybe that is a reference to him being a sockpuppet.--Suitcivil133 (talk) 21:08, 4 April 2012 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2012-04-04T21:08:00.000Z","author":"Suitcivil133","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Suitcivil133-2012-04-04T21:08:00.000Z-User_Amarru","replies":[]}}-->

In looking at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Voltage (Skrillex album) (3rd nomination), which was started on 27 March and should have been closed by now, it looks like the nominator didn't list it properly and it doesn't appear on Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, which might explain why it hasn't been closed. It is also the first nom, not the third, despite the title. It was nominated for WP:PROD twice before, which confused things. The case is an open-and-shut WP:CRYSTAL one which all comments added are to delete it.

Ouch, that's a pretty malformed deletion attempt by the nom.

Hey Bush, I'm not sure the word "apology" is the word I'm looking for here, but I did want to comment on my recent view on an ANI thread. (KW block). To be honest, it's a very VERY rare time that I don't fully agree with either your or Salvio's views individually, the fact that I disagreed with BOTH of you in the same thread absolutely astounds me. I do completely understand your (collective) thoughts on the matter, it's just that I don't agree in this case. I'll also admit I'm not surprised by the action either. In fact, I fully expected to see strong support from the community - and that does indeed appear to be the case at this time. As I mentioned, I can't actually apologize for my views because it's simply the way I think on the matter, but I am at a loss for words at having to disagree with you. I hope you won't hold that against me, as I certainly don't have any disrespect for either one of you. To be honest, when I read through that cat. rename discussion, I was surprised at KW's behavior there. I'm not sure I'd go so far as to say "disruption", but I was surprised to see him posting in what I viewed to be a rather childish fashion. (the posts, not him as a person). I'd think it reflects more on him than on any of other people in that thread. Anyway - it's a very rare thing indeed to disagree with you, and I did want to note that.

There's no worries here! :) Nothing held against you at all, it's all cool. Sometimes even people we think the most alike with disagree, and sometimes strenously - and that's a good thing.

Well, of course. Please note I called her "bossy boots", which – although clearly incivil – has no sexist overtones[7][8]. The "miss" (and presumably, therefore, the sexism) is all yours. How telling... Where I come from we'd call that a Freudian slip. That you, despite popping up wherever she makes an "acidulous" comment in these discussions – I'd list these, but really I have better things to do with my time – can't see her incivility on most of the Old Fooian threads, whilst another distinguished editor can, says everything we need to know, and surely justifies that other incivil remark I made.

I'm flattered to be another distinguished editor. (I sympathize with your withdrawing from those discussions, Ericoides, I have almost done the same. Something has gone wrong there, they all seem to have a foregone conclusion.) BHG is not the rudest of all admins, but in my view she can't bear opposition and pursues points too ferociously.

OK, there was no "miss", and I apologise for misremembering the exact words, but just "bossy boots" is sexist by itself...as it isn't something you'd have said to a male opponent, yes? Anyway, it's obvious that we unfortunatly have opposite opinions on this issue and on what constitutes personal attacks/incivility vs. frustration, but it might be best if we just agree to disagree here. However, I will point out that even if BHG's comments were/are (depending on your point of view) uncivil, "tit for tat" incivility is never justified. - The Bushranger _{One ping only} 17:56, 11 April 2012 (UTC)__DTREPLYBUTTONSCONTENT__-->__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2012-04-11T17:56:00.000Z","author":"The Bushranger","type":"comment","level":5,"id":"c-The_Bushranger-2012-04-11T17:56:00.000Z-Moonraker-2012-04-11T15:12:00.000Z","replies":["c-Ericoides-2012-04-11T19:13:00.000Z-The_Bushranger-2012-04-11T17:56:00.000Z"]}}-->

I appreciate the semi-apology, thanks. 1. We do not have opposite opinions on what constitutes incivility; I have admitted I was incivil to our incivil crusader colleague, indeed it was my intention. It pained me to do so as I find her manner appalling, but I apologised to her shortly afterwards, as I'm by and large a polite sort of chap. 2. You should really also have the good grace to admit that you were wrong to throw the tremendously incivil term "sexist" around, something to which I take great exception. To use the Google results so beloved of our chum as a means of settling things, the phrase "he is a bossy boots" is used 12,400 times (or 3 pages worth, as there's lots of duplication), while the phrase "she is a bossy boots" is used 14,600 times (or 3 pages worth, as there's lots of duplication). Moreover, the dictionaries I've cited make no mention of it being a gendered expression. And I'd certainly call a man a "bossy boots" if he behaved like our colleague in that hilarious exchange linked to above by Moonraker (don't you think her head might actually explode if she carries on for much longer like that?). As a result, I'm not sure what your point is, apart from not wishing to admit you were doubly wrong and clutching at non-existent and frankly offensive straws.

Back on 28 March I closed a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents, which I thought was finished with. You were one of the contributors to the discussion. Another editor later posted a further comment below the closed section, and, having read that comment, I decided that the issue was perhaps not as unambiguously finished as I had thought, so I reverted my closure. Nobody posted any more comments to the section, and it is now archived at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/IncidentArchive744#Wiki user:Fasttimes68 is vandalizing pages referencing celebrity model Stephanie_Adams. However, an editor has now suggested that I should have informed those who contributed to the discussion that it had been reopened, so I am doing so. It is very likely that nobody had any more to add, but if you would have done so then I apologise for not informing you at the time. If you do wish to say any more about it then it will be necessary to open a new section at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents, since the old one is archived.
