Notes
Max263
- ^ a b The Assembly: Created with User:Moondragon21 – I have ~70% authorship as of May 2026.
- ^ Tom Scutt: Tony and Olivier-winning designer, arguably top of his field.
Challenges
- ^ Deprecated namespaces and the "transwiki" pseudo-namespace (but no other pseudo-namespaces) count.
- ^ Expanding from redirect is okay; must be an article (or list) when you create it, not a disambiguation page or redirect. Pick either the default sort or order of the verbatim title.
- ^ a b c The credit must be for content creation and not just nomination—in technical terms, a DYKmake rather than DYKnom credit.
- ^ No mixing and matching! Choose one of the sections.
- ^ The nominations don't all have to occupy the same calendar month—a set that contains nominations from April 1, August 2, December 3, February 4, and so on, would satisfy the requirement.
- ^ Prior to December 2022, the bar was 416.6 views per hour for all hooks, but was changed due to rising averages. The change is retroactive through December 2021.
- ^ From "Agriculture, food, and drink" to "Warfare". That is, "Miscellaneous" is not required. Quickfails count; Wikipedia:Good article reassessment does not.
- ^ It doesn't have to remain at that length. See Special:LongPages.
- ^ The edits are measured over the total account activity, and not over a single week.
- ^ The page only has to be linked in the MoS when you begin working on it. You may not insert a link to the page yourself.
- ^ Each article can only be counted once; the hierarchy of classes is FA > A > GA > B > C > Start > Stub. You must make substantive improvements that bring the article from one class to another, rather than just updating the class in the WikiProject banners.
- ^ Today's featured article, In the news, Did you know?, On this day, Today's featured list and Picture of the day are the six possible sections.
- ^ One article for each of the three colours is needed
- ^ As of 2022: Ceres, Eris, Haumea, Makemake and Pluto.
- ^ The tie needs to be close enough that it falls under the scope of "WikiProject [Country Name]".
- ^ The 15 pair combinations are:
- Africa and Asia
- Africa and Europe
- Africa and North America
- Africa and Oceania
- Africa and South America
- Asia and Europe
- Asia and North America
- Asia and Oceania
- Asia and South America
- Europe and North America
- Europe and Oceania
- Europe and South America
- North America and Oceania
- North America and South America
- Oceania and South America
- ^ Formerly populated places are permitted. Research stations count as populated.
- ^ The 30 classifications are:
- Af: Tropical rainforest climate
- Am: Tropical monsoon climate
- Aw/As: Tropical savanna climate with dry-winter r dry-summer characteristics
- BWh: Hot desert
- BWk: Cold desert
- BSh: Hot semi-arid
- BSk: Cold semi-arid
- Csa: Mediterranean hot summer climates
- Csb: Mediterranean warm/cool summer climates
- Csc: Mediterranean cold summer climates
- Cfa: Humid subtropical climates
- Cfb: Oceanic climate
- Cfc: Subpolar oceanic climate
- Cwa: Dry-winter humid subtropical climate
- Cwb: Dry-winter subtropical highland climate
- Cwc: Dry-winter cold subtropical highland climate
- Dfa: Hot summer continental climate, no dry season
- Dwa: Hot summer continental climate, dry winter
- Dsa: Hot summer continental climate, dry summer
- Dfb: Warm summer continental or hemiboreal climates, no dry season
- Dwb: Warm summer continental or hemiboreal climates, dry winter
- Dsb: Warm summer continental or hemiboreal climates, dry summer
- Dfc: Subarctic or boreal climates, no dry season
- Dwc: Subarctic or boreal climates, dry winter
- Dsc: Subarctic or boreal climates, dry summer
- Dfd: Subarctic or boreal climates with severe winters, no dry season
- Dwd: Subarctic or boreal climates with severe winters, dry winter
- Dsd: Subarctic or boreal climates with severe winters, dry summer
- ET: Tundra climate
- EF: Ice cap climate
- ^ To one decimal place, 26.2 miles (42.2 km).
- ^ Six articles are required, one for each colour.
- ^ Any definition of "country" that includes every current member state of the United Nations is okay.
- ^ An article can only be counted for one country, and the tie needs to be close enough that it falls under the scope of "WikiProject [Country Name]".
- ^ Note that, for most television programmes, not all episodes will be individually notable, making them ineligible. If the programme later has additional episodes released then the win is invalidated unless you become the creator of an article on each new episode.
- ^ Very loosely interpreted: any headwear is a hat; anything that covers the torso is a top; anything that covers the legs is a type of bottoms; anything covering feet is shoes. If the connection is clear then it doesn't have to be exactly a garment—Skirt (song) counts as bottoms. Ask on the talk page about edge cases.
