			'''Tip of the month:'''
	Monday saw the end of Round 3. Eight contestants moved forward to Round 4—the top two contestants from each of Round 3's three pools and the top two participants of all remaining users. It was an exciting competition, especially towards the end. Round 3's highest scorer was {{U|Jaguar}}, Round 2's wildcard, with an impressive 305 points, the highest score in the GA Cup thus far. Pool B was the closest race; {{U|J_Milburn}} and {{U|Cwmhiraeth}} switched places a few times in the final hours of the competition, although J Milburn edged out Cwmhiraeth by just 9 points. Pool A was, by far, the most competitive; four out of five moved onto Round 4, and its competitors earned a cumulative 935 points and reviewed 59 articles. {{U|Ritchie333}}, who came in second overall with 255 points, reviewed the most articles (17). {{U|Peacemaker67}} and {{U|Wizardman}} earned the two wildcard slots, with 184 and 154 points, respectively. Congrats to all!
			* ''When translating articles from another language Misplaced Pages, don't forget </br>to .''
			'''Other ways to participate:'''
	114 articles were reviewed this round, as compared to 110 in Round 2 and 117 in Round 1. The key to success in Round 3, like in Round 2, was reviewing articles with the longest nomination dates; everyone who moved forward reviewed articles from the pink nomination box (20 points) or reviewed articles that had languished in the queue for over 5 months (18 points). Many of these articles had languished because their nominators had left Misplaced Pages and had little chance of passing to GA, so our competitors provided a great service by helping remove them from the queue. Also as in Round 2, ] articles proved to be popular review choices, with 10% of all the articles reviewed in December. We appreciate the competitors' continued enthusiasm, even during the busy holiday season. At least even reviewed articles while preparing for a holiday meal!

	Hi ]. I am coming to your talk page as I note you signed the ] back in 2012. I am a non-] who lives with ] in the form of ]. If you know much about those of us on the Spectrum as well as Misplaced Pages editors on the Spectrum, you probably understand that editing and communication can be difficult enough for neurotypicals, excruciatingly difficult at times for editors like me with Autism. I am here on your talk page not because I am asking you to intervene, I am not canvassing for support. I am here because you signed the Autie Pact that is meant to be a way to move toward bridging the gap between neurotypical editors and editors with Autism Spectrum Disorder(s). Currently, there has been a discussion for a few days at AN/I regarding my ability to edit. I have been open there about being a person with Asperger's. When that information was brought forth, the reactions have been -- shall we say -- less than complimentary to those expressing their views about editors with Autism. This discussion and the comments from long-time and not-so-long-time editors is, in my opinion, an example of how far we still have to go in Misplaced Pages toward understanding that we are made up of editors with different editing styles and different ways of seeing the world. Of course, the difference in editors with Autism is more obvious and can be, at times, more maddening to neurotypicals. That said, with the rate of autism being somewhere between 1:55 - 1:110 and Misplaced Pages being a magnet for those with ASDs, I think it's fair to say that awareness is extremely important. Also important to remember is that discrimination against editors because they have ASDs is just not appropriate nor does it echo ]. If you are interested in seeing the thread at AN/I I am referring to, the link is here . I have no expectation that you will look at it, my purpose here is really just awareness that Misplaced Pages still has a long way to go in the way of interactions and understanding between autism-spectrum editors and neurotypical editors. And, as the title of this section says, your advice would be welcome.

At times, the competition between them was a real horse-race, and exciting for the judges to witness. Both Ritchie333 and Jaguar have moved onto the finals. In Pool A, {{U|Good888}} with 294 points, and {{U|Wizardman}} with 179 also won slots in the final. {{U|3family6}} with 285 points, won the wildcard slot. We also had one withdrawal, due to outside-of-Misplaced Pages priorities. Congrats to all!

			== Welcome to the 2024 WikiCup! ==
	Although there were just 8 competitors, more reviews were conducted this round than in any other round—148, which demonstrates the commitment and enthusiasm of our participants. The most successful competitors, like in all previous rounds, reviewed articles that languished in the queue at GAC for at least five months (worth 18 points). ] articles were popular review choices again, with almost 20% of the articles reviewed this month.
			Happy New Year and Happy New WikiCup! The 2024 competition has just begun and all article creators, expanders, improvers and reviewers are welcome to take part. Even if you are a novice editor you should be able to advance to at least the second round, improving your editing skills as you go. If you have already signed up, your submissions page can be found ''']'''. If you have not yet signed up, you can ''']''' and the judges will set up your submissions page ready for you to take part. Any questions on the scoring, rules or anything else should be directed to one of the judges, or posted to the ]. Signups will close on 31 January, and the first round will end on 26 February; the 64 highest scorers at that time will move on to round 2.

	In other news, we received another report from ] page maintainer ]. See here for his take on the effect the GA Cup has had on Good Article reviews. He believes that we've made a real difference. AmericanLemming says: "As you can see, ...the GA Cup has done wonders when it comes to getting the oldest nominations reviewed much sooner thanks to the system whereby you get the most points for reviewing the oldest articles." Everyone involved with this competition, especially the competitors, should be very proud of what we've been able to accomplish!

			Remember that any content promoted after 27 February but before the start of Round 2 can be claimed in Round 2. Invitations for collaborative writing efforts or any other discussion of potentially interesting work is always welcome on the WikiCup talk page.

	Hi Keilana -
			| <span style="font-size: 110%;">'''] 2023 Annual Report'''</span>
	I'm an academic who researches and writes about Native American and First Nations literatures. I'm also an occasional Wikipedian and would like to work to improve the project's coverage of Native American authors and books.
			<div style="float:right; width: 75px; height: 60px;"></div>
	With this in mind, I've proposed that the next Native American Literature Symposium (NALS) in March run a wikithon session to get academics and writers, of whom there should be around 150 in attendance, contributing to Misplaced Pages. I have a list of authors who don't currently have articles, and I will also get participants working on improving existing stub articles. The NALS programme can be found here .

	Hi Keilana, I come here at the prompting of Crisco, who thinks you may be able to help. I am one of the Featured List delegates and I took an interest in the list of ] that came through the FL process last September. It was in a poor state at the time, and did not make it through. I've been advising on a technical basis and doing a fair amount of editing on it since, assisting the main editor to get it into shape. I am rather limited in what I can do as I have no knowledge of Islam whatsoever. Would you have the time and inclination to have a look at the page and see if it looks viable as a featured list? I know the lead needs to be lengthened a little, but I'd appreciate a wiser pair of eyes than mine on this. Many thanks for any help you you're able to provide.

	The winner of the 2014/2015 GA Cup is {{U|Jaguar}}! He earned an impressive 615 points, despite only being a wildcard in the Round 4. The key to Jaguar's success seemed to be reviewing lots of articles as well as reviewer the oldest nominations; he reviewed 39 nominations in this round. Overall, the key to everyone's success was reviewing articles that had been in the queue for at least three months, which was true throughout the competition. In second place was {{U|Wizardman}}, with 241 points, and following close behind in third place was {{U|Good888}}, with 211 points. Congrats!
			'''Announcements from other communities'''
	Although there were a couple of bumps along the way, the judges have thoroughly enjoyed managing this competition. We hope that the participants had fun as well. The GA Cup was a resounding success, and that's due to all of you. The judges sincerely thank each and every participant, and for the editors who were willing to subject their articles to this process. We learned a lot. For example, we learned that even with meticulous planning, it's impossible to anticipate every problem. We learned that the scoring system we set up wasn't always the most effective. The enthusiasm and motivation of Wikipedians is awesome, and we enjoyed watching what was sometimes fierce competition. We look forward to the second GA Cup later this year.

Overall, 578 nominations were reviewed throughout the competition and a total of 8,184 points were awarded. Everyone involved should be very proud of what we've accomplished through the GA Cup.

	Hi Emily!
			<div style="position: absolute; top: -20px; right: -12px;">]</div>
			<hr style="border-bottom: 1px solid rgba( 109, 193, 240, 0.75 );" />
			]
			Hello and welcome to the June 2024 newsletter, a quarterly-ish digest of Guild activities since April. Don't forget you can unsubscribe at any time; see below.
	I'm a linguist and I'm planning a series of editathons for July 2015 in Chicago to improve linguistics-related articles on Misplaced Pages, especially linguistics stubs, biographies of female and other minority linguists, and under-documented languages.
			'''Election news:''' Wanted: new Guild coordinators! If you value and enjoy the GOCE, why not help out behind the scenes? Nominations for our ] are now open until 23:59 on 15 June (UTC). Self-nominations are welcome. Voting commences at 00:01 on 16 June and continues until 23:50 on 30 June. Results will be announced at the election page.
	Background: I'm planning them for July 2015 in Chicago because that's when the four-week Lingusitics Summer Institute will bring several hundred linguists from many institutions to the University of Chicago for special courses, to attend conferences and workshops, and so on. The organizers of the institute have already agreed to give me space for editathons on Wednesday afternoons, the 8th, 15th, 22nd, and 29th, which we've agreed is the best time in the schedule, as well as a seminar on how to use Misplaced Pages in the classroom. I'm hoping to not just improve linguistics-related articles, but also to increase editathon and Misplaced Pages expertise among linguists (your systemic bias kit looks like exactly the type of thing I'm into, so I'm definitely going to start linking to that!). I already organized an editathon in January at the Linguistics Society of America annual meeting, which went well (see report ), and I'm organizing another virtual editathon via the #lingwiki hashtag on Twitter for the last weekend in March.
			'''Blitz:''' Nine of the fourteen editors who signed up for the ] copy edited at least one article. Between them, they copy edited 55,853 words comprising twenty articles. Barnstars awarded are available ].
	] sent me to you and ] because he thought you might be in Chicago in July and willing to come help out at the editathon (I'm fairly familiar with Misplaced Pages policy due to a long history of lurking, but it'd be good to have more expertise around, especially as I think we may get quite a few participants!). I'm also planning to apply for funding from Wikimedia for the Chicago editathons, so if you have any advice on that I'd certainly appreciate it!
			'''Drive:''' 58 editors signed up for our ] and 33 of those completed at least one copy edit. 251 articles and 475,952 words were copy edited. Barnstars awarded are ].
	Also, I've been looking at systemic bias stats, and I've found stats for gender and Western bias, both of which I think we could help with (I didn't actually track gender of participants at the first editathon I facilitated, but it was around 50-75% female), but there doesn't seem to be much on other areas like race, sexuality, ability, etc -- I've been saying "other minority" for the moment, but I'd like to be more specific if I can. Thoughts? Thanks! --] (]) 23:41, 1 March 2015 (UTC)
	:Hi ]! It's nice to meet you - it looks like you are doing some really cool work! :) I'm so glad you found the systemic bias kit useful. I'm free for a few of the edit-a-thons in July (all but the last, as of now) and would love to help out! I've got more than a passing interest in linguistics so it'll be really fun. If you want to apply for support, which I definitely think you should, head on over to ] and put in a request! We're doing a campaign to bring more women into Wikimedia right now through the grants program, and the fact that your first edit-a-thon was so heavily female makes it a really great fit. If you want me to take a look at it before you submit it, I'm happy to do that. Also, if you want to plan the Chicago workshops in more detail, ] and we can talk more or plan to meet up/Skype/exchange carrier pigeons. All the best, ]&#124;<sup>]</sup> 21:53, 3 March 2015 (UTC)
	::Haha that didn't even register to me as heavily female -- that's basically the same as the gender ratio in linguistics as a whole, so I would've been doing something wrong if I ''hadn't'' gotten that ratio. I'd love to chat, but it'll need to be skype, as I don't actually live in Chicago (that's just where a ton of linguists are going to be this summer). Sending you an email! --] (]) 17:29, 4 March 2015 (UTC)
			'''Blitz:''' Our ] will begin on 16 June and finish on 22 June. Barnstars awarded will be posted ].

	==Language-population update project==
	Hi. The 18th edition of ''Ethnologue'' just came out, and if we divide up our language articles among us, it won't take long to update them. I would appreciate it if you could help out, even if it's just a few articles (5,000 articles is a lot for just me), but I won't be insulted if you delete this request.
			Thank you all again for your participation; we wouldn't be able to achieve what we have without you! Cheers from {{noping|Baffle gab1978}} and your GOCE coordinators {{noping|Dhtwiki|Miniapolis|Wracking}}.
	A largely complete list of articles to be updated is at ]. The priority articles are in ]. These are the 10% that have population figures at least 25 years old.
			{{center
	Probably 90% of the time, ''Ethnologue'' has not changed their figures between the 17th and 18th editions, so all we need to do is change "e17" to "e18" in the reference (ref) field of the language info box. That will change the citation for the artcle to the current edition. Please put the data in the proper fields, or the info box will flag it as needing editorial review. The other relevant fields are "speakers" (the number of native speakers in all countries), "date" (the date of the reference or census that Ethnologue uses, not the date of Ethnologue!), and sometimes "speakers2". Our convention has been to enter e.g. "1990 census" when a census is used, as other data can be much older than the publication date. Sometimes a citation elsewhere in the article depends on the e17 entry, in which case you will need to change "name=e17" to "name=e18" in the reference tag (assuming the 18th edition still supports the cited claim).

			== ''The Signpost'': 8 June 2024 ==
	Remember, we want the *total* number of native speakers, which is often not the first figure given by ''Ethnologue''. Sometimes the data is too incompatible to add together (e.g. a figure from the 1950s for one country, and a figure from 2006 for another), in which case it should be presented that way. That's one use for the "speakers2" field. If you're not sure, just ask, or skip that article.
			<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr"><div style="column-count:2;"> {{Misplaced Pages:Misplaced Pages Signpost/2024-06-08}} </div><!--Volume 20, Issue 8--> <div class="hlist" style="margin-top:10px; font-size:90%; padding-left:5px; font-family:Georgia, Palatino, Palatino Linotype, Times, Times New Roman, serif;"> * ''']''' * ] * ] * ] (]) 12:26, 8 June 2024 (UTC) <!-- Sent via script (]) --></div></div>
	Data should not be displayed with more than two, or at most three, significant figures. Sometimes it should be rounded off to just one significant figure, e.g. when some of the component data used by ''Ethnologue'' has been approximated with one figure (200,000, 3 million, etc.) and the other data has greater precision. For example, a figure of 200,000 for one country and 4,230 for another is really just 200,000 in total, as the 4,230 is within the margin of rounding off in the 200,000. If you want to retain the spurious precision of the number in ''Ethnologue'', you might want to use the {{tl|sigfig}} template. (First parameter in this template is for the data, second is for the number of figures to round it off to.)

			== WikiCup 2024 July newsletter ==
	Dates will often need to be a range of all the country data in the Ethnologue article. When entering the date range, I often ignore dates from countries that have only a few percent of the population, as often 10% or so of the population isn't even separately listed by ''Ethnologue'' and so is undated anyway.
			The third round of the 2024 WikiCup ended on 28 June. As with Round 2, this round was competitive: each of the 16 contestants who advanced to Round 4 scored at least 256 points.
	If ''Ethnologue'' does not provide a date for the bulk of the population, just enter "no date" in the date field. But if the population figure is undated, and hasn't changed between the 17th & 18th editions of ''Ethnologue'', please leave the ref field set to "e17", and maybe add a comment to keep it so that other editors don't change it. In cases like this, the edition of ''Ethnologue'' that the data first appeared in may be our only indication of how old it is. We still cite the 14th edition in a couple dozen articles, so our readers can see that the data is getting old.
			The following editors all scored more than 400 points in Round 3:
	The articles in the categories linked above are over 90% of the job. There are probably also articles that do not currently cite Ethnologue, but which we might want to update with the 18th edition. I'll need to generate another category to capture those, probably after most of the ''Ethnologue'' 17 citations are taken care of.

	I apologise for the multiple undos. Am new to wiki and did not read the rules. Am just trying to protect the method to an illusion The Magic Circle have the rights to. Exposure in magic is generally not acceptable. The Zig Zag Lady is exposed in the wiki and also has references to where one can seek further info to see the method (video link). This is not acceptable ad again, The Magic Circle own this illusion now. I will contact The Magic Circle to officially make a statement about said exposure.

	:Hi Tboy2000, unfortunately Misplaced Pages isn't in the business of protecting the secrets of illusions. See ] for our policy on stuff like this. ]&#124;<sup>]</sup> 21:36, 18 April 2015 (UTC)
	::I am curious to know what sort of "protection" or "ownership rights" Tboy2000 thinks applies to the secrets of magic tricks. Obviously, the secret of that particular magic trick has been broadcast on a major television program in the United States (and is easily found on the web), so it is not very secret at this point. And if there was some kind of enforceable legal right involved here, the television show would not have been able to do that, and would have been successfully sued if had done it anyway – and we have no evidence that any such lawsuit existed (or, if it existed, that it was successful). I'm not aware of any law in any country that would protect the secret of the Zig-zag Girl illusion, but I am very curious to find out whether any such law actually exists somewhere. Perhaps revealing the trick might violate some voluntary "magician's code" of some particular voluntary association of magicians, but Misplaced Pages has presumably not joined any such association, so its rules do not govern what happens on Misplaced Pages. —] (]) 23:34, 18 April 2015 (UTC)

	Hi. I noticed you listed yourself at ]. Please consider {{u|Ian.thomson}} for an RfA. Ian has the requisite longevity and editing experience and has taken a huge amount of abuse while vandal fighting. He's always been on the right side during his appearances at ANI and I think he ought to have the mop so we can cut out the middleman.
			Hello,

Our inaugural competition, which ran from October 2014 to April 2015, was such a resounding success that we'd like to do it again. Currently, there are over 500 GANs ready to be reviewed; competitors in the previous GA Cup reviewed about 570 GAs, so we can again make a huge impact in helping editors improve articles in Misplaced Pages and decrease the traditionally long queue at GAN.

	The 2nd GA Cup will begin on '''July 1, 2015'''. As last time, five rounds are currently scheduled (which will bring the competition to a close on November 28, 2015), but this may change based on participant numbers. The judges learned a lot during the 1st GA Cup which exposed weaknesses in its system. Using both the feedback from last year's participants and the weaknesses discovered, we've revised the scoring system to make it more fair. The sign-up and submissions process will remain the same.

WikiCup 2023 September newsletter

The fourth round of the competition has finished, with anyone scoring less than 673 points being eliminated. It was a high scoring round with all but one of the contestants who progressed to the final having achieved an FA during the round. The highest scorers were

• Epicgenius, with 2173 points topping the scores, gained mainly from a featured article, 38 good articles and 9 DYKs. He was followed by
• Sammi Brie, with 1575 points, gained mainly from a featured article, 28 good articles and 50 good article reviews. Close behind was
• Thebiguglyalien, with 1535 points mainly gained from a featured article, 15 good articles, 26 good article reviews and lots of bonus points.

Between them during round 4, contestants achieved 12 featured articles, 3 featured lists, 3 featured pictures, 126 good articles, 46 DYK entries, 14 ITN entries, 67 featured article candidate reviews and 147 good article reviews. Congratulations to our eight finalists and all who participated! It was a generally high-scoring and productive round and I think we can expect a highly competitive finish to the competition.

Remember that any content promoted after the end of round 4 but before the start of round 5 can be claimed in round 5. Remember too that you must claim your points within 10 days of "earning" them and within 24 hours of the end of the final. If you are concerned that your nomination will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Misplaced Pages:WikiCup/Reviews. It would be helpful if this list could be cleared of any items no longer relevant. If you want to help out with the WikiCup, please do your bit to keep down the review backlogs! Questions are welcome on Misplaced Pages talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. If you wish to start or stop receiving this newsletter, please feel free to add or remove your name from Misplaced Pages:WikiCup/Newsletter/Send.

I will be standing down as a judge after the end of the contest. I think the Cup encourages productive editors to improve their contributions to Misplaced Pages and I hope that someone else will step up to take over the running of the Cup. Sturmvogel 66 (talk), and Cwmhiraeth (talk)

WikiCup 2024 March newsletter

The first round of the 2024 WikiCup ended at 23:59 (UTC) on 27 February. Everyone with at least 30 points moved on to Round 2, the highest number of points required to advance to the second round since 2014. Due to a six-way tie for the 64th-place spot, 67 contestants have qualified for Round 2.

The following scorers in Round 1 all scored more than 300 points:

• Generalissima (submissions), who has 916 points mostly from one FA on John Littlejohn (preacher), 15 GAs, and 16 DYKs on a variety of topics including New Zealand coinage and Inuit figures, in addition to seven reviews
• Vami_IV (submissions), who has 790 points from two FAs on Felix M. Warburg House and Doom (2016 video game), two GAs, one DYK, and 11 reviews
• AirshipJungleman29 (submissions), who has 580 points from one FA on Hö'elün, two GAs on Mongolia-related articles, two DYKs, and five reviews
• Sammi Brie (submissions), who has 420 points mostly from nine GAs and seven DYKs on television and radio stations
• MaranoFan (submissions), who has 351 points from one FA on Holidays (Meghan Trainor song), a nine-article FT on 30 (album), and three DYKs
• Skyshifter (submissions), who has 345 points from one FA on OneShot, one DYK and two reviews

In this newsletter, the judges would like to pay a special tribute to Vami_IV (submissions), who unfortunately passed away this February. At the time of his death, he was the second-highest-scoring competitor. Outside the WikiCup, he had eight other featured articles, five A-class articles, eight other good articles, and two Four Awards. Vami also wrote an essay on completionism, a philosophy in which he deeply believed. If you can, please join us in honoring his memory by improving one of the articles on his to-do list.

Remember that any content promoted after 27 February but before the start of Round 2 can be claimed in Round 2. Invitations for collaborative writing efforts or any other discussion of potentially interesting work is always welcome on the WikiCup talk page. Remember, if two or more WikiCup competitors have done significant work on an article, all can claim points. 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 Misplaced Pages:WikiCup/Reviews Needed. If you want to help out with the WikiCup, feel free to review one of the nominations listed on Misplaced Pages:WikiCup/Reviews Needed. Questions are welcome on Misplaced Pages talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages. Good luck!

Hello! This is User:Luiysia (IRL name is Kelly). My main interests are fashion, music, literature, and history. I am fairly new to Misplaced Pages editing and I found that there has been very little activity from the Chicago Misplaced Pages user group since 2020.

I'd like to host a casual meetup in Chicago to celebrate Wikidata Day on Saturday, October 26.

Proposed location is Engine Coffee in the Wicker Park/West Town area, at 11AM.

Here is the official meetup page, where you can add yourself as an attendee.

(If you would prefer not to see messages like this, go ahead and take yourself off this list.)

Hope to see you all there!

Thank you for improving articles on October! - My story today is a cantata 300 years old, based on a hymn 200 years old when the cantata was composed, based on a psalm some thousand years old, - so said the 2015 DYK hook.

Invitation to participate in a research

Hello,

The Wikimedia Foundation is conducting a survey of Wikipedians to better understand what draws administrators to contribute to Misplaced Pages, and what affects administrator retention. We will use this research to improve experiences for Wikipedians, and address common problems and needs. We have identified you as a good candidate for this research, and would greatly appreciate your participation in this anonymous survey.

You do not have to be an Administrator to participate.

The survey should take around 10-15 minutes to complete. You may read more about the study on its Meta page and view its privacy statement .

Please find our contact on the project Meta page if you have any questions or concerns.

Kind Regards,

WMF Research Team
