| The third round of the 2022 WikiCup has now come to an end. Each of the sixteen contestants who made it into the fourth round had at least 180 points, which is a lower figure than last year when 294 points were needed to progress to round 4. Our top scorers in round 3 were: | |||
| *] ], with 746 points, a tally built both on snooker and other sports topics, and on more general subjects. | |||
| *{{flagicon|Kingdom of Scotland|old}} ], with 683 points, garnered mostly from "In the news" items and related DYKs. | |||
| *] ], with 527, from a variety of submissions related to radio and television stations. | |||
| Between them contestants achieved 5 featured articles, 4 featured lists, 51 good articles, 149 DYK entries, 68 ITN entries, and 109 good article reviews. As we enter the fourth round, remember that any content promoted after the end of round 3 but before the start of round 4 can be claimed in round 4. Please also remember that you must claim your points within 14 days of "earning" them. When doing GARs, please make sure that you check that all the GA criteria are fully met. Please also remember that all submissions must meet core Misplaced Pages policies, regardless of the review process. | |||
| If you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is a good article nomination, a featured process, or anything else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on ] (remember to remove your listing when no longer required). Questions are welcome on ], and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email.

| *{{flagicon|New York City}} ] (1082), an "In the news" contributor, a seasoned contestant who first took part in the Cup ten years ago. Other finalists were | |||

| *{{flagicon|United Nations}} ] (370), who created various articles on famous Americans, including an FA on ], famed for his prediction of election outcomes. Next was | |||
| *{{flagicon|Chicago}} ] (292), who scored with good articles and DYKs on sporting and other topics and | |||
| *{{flagicon|Toronto}} ] (25) who had DYKs on various topics including historic Canadians. | |||
| During the WikiCup, contestants achieved 37 featured articles, 349 good articles, 360 featured article reviews, 683 good article reviews and 480 In the news items, so Misplaced Pages has benefited greatly from the activities of WikiCup competitors. Well done everyone! All those who reached the final round will receive awards and the following special awards will be made, based on high performance in particular areas of content creation and review. So that the finalists do not have an undue advantage, these prizes are awarded to the competitor who scored the highest in any particular field in a single round, or the overall leader in this field. | |||
