== Sorry for my past ==
Hello, ChamithN.
This is Akmaie Ajam, and i am returning to edit Misplaced Pages. (Sorry for bad English, my country i live in is Indonesia)
Sorry for my past. In 2015 i wanted to edit DirectX. In that time i have little understanding that DirectX is not what needed to run Aero, little experience editing Misplaced Pages, and more. Sorry for vandalism.


Thanks.

== You've been unsubscribed from the Feedback Request Service ==
Hi there. Okay, I understand that '''nbsp''' is a non-breaking space. But that is a raw HTML entity, correct? Why do some editors create edits with '''nbsp''' in them such as ? Thanks in advance for the clarification. --] (]) 04:06, 28 August 2015 (UTC)
:As you might you already know it's actually done by a script called ] which automatically suggests improvements to the formatting. ] mentions "if an mdash or ndash is preceded by a space, it had better be a non-breaking one". This is mainly because ] recommends to use non-breaking spaces to prevent causing linebreaks in some situations. However, If <code><nowiki>&amp;ndash;</nowiki></code> wasn't preceded by a space then the script won't try to modify it because, as there isn't aren't any whitespaces it's unlikely to cause linebreaks. So as you can see there was a space before the <code><nowiki>&amp;ndash;</nowiki></code> which made the script suggest a non-breaking space rather than a <code>whitespace+<nowiki>&amp;ndash;</nowiki></code>. This is however, not a rule, but rather a formatting method to improve article layout. I hope you'll get my explanation. Cheers! -- ] ] 05:05, 28 August 2015 (UTC)

:{{ping|Akmaie Ajam}} I'm sorry but it needs to be reverted, mostly because it's poorly written. As far as I know there's nothing called ''"Graphics card that support DirectX 9 needed to support Aero"''. If you could provide a reliable source to backup your claims I'm willing to discuss about this further. And please refrain from providing opinion pieces.

:::It's ok {{u|Akmaie Ajam}}. I appreciate your concern to improve Misplaced Pages. Speaking of my reversion, <code>4.09.00.0900 (RC4)</code> is a version of DirectX. So saying ''Graphics card that support DirectX 9 needed to support Aero''" contradicts the meaning as it's not a graphics card, but a version. I hope you understand why I reverted your edit and not get hurt by it. And, any addition could be ] if a reliable source is not cited.

Please be bold and help improve it!
In round 3, we had a three-way tie for qualification among the wildcard contestants, so we had 34 competitors. The leader was by far {{Misplaced Pages:WikiCup/Participant3|Casliber}} in Group B, who earned 1496 points. Although 913 of these points were bonus points, he submitted 15 articles in the DYK category. Second place overall was {{Misplaced Pages:WikiCup/Participant6|Coemgenus}} at 864 points, who although submitted just 2 FAs for 400 points, earned double that amount for those articles in bonus points. Everyone who moved forward to Round 4 earned at least 100 points.

== This week's ] (week 45, 2024) ==
The scores required to move onto the semifinals were impressive; the lowest scorer to move onto the finals was 407, making this year's Wikicup as competitive as it's always been. Our finalists, ordered by round 4 score, are:


#{{Misplaced Pages:WikiCup/Participant6|Casliber}}, who is competing in his sixth consecutive Wikicup final, again finished the round in first place, with an impressive 1666 points in Pool B. Casliber writes about the natural sciences, including ornithology, botany and astronomy. A large bulk of his points this round were bonus points.
#{{Misplaced Pages:WikiCup/Participant6|Godot13}}, second place both in Pool B and overall, earned the bulk of his points with FPs, mostly depicting currency.
#{{Misplaced Pages:WikiCup/Participant6|Cwmhiraeth}}, first in Pool A, came in third. His specialty is natural science articles; in Round 4, he mostly submitted articles about insects and botany. Five out of the six of the GAs he submitted were level-4 vital articles.
#{{Misplaced Pages:WikiCup/Participant6|Harrias}}, second in Pool A, took fourth overall. He tends to focus on articles about ] and military history, specifically the 1640s ].
#{{Misplaced Pages:WikiCup/Participant6|West Virginian}}, from Pool A, was our highest-scoring wildcard. West Virginia tends to focus on articles about the history of (what for it!) the U.S. state of West Virginia.
#{{Misplaced Pages:WikiCup/Participant6|Rodw}}, from Pool A, likes to work on articles about British geography and places. Most of his points this round were earned from two impressive accomplishments: a GT about ] and a FT about ].
#{{Misplaced Pages:WikiCup/Participant6|Rationalobserver}}, from Pool B, came in seventh overall. RO earned the majority of her points from GARs and PRs, many of which were earned in the final hours of the round.
#{{Misplaced Pages:WikiCup/Participant6|Calvin999}}, also from Pool B, who was competing with RO for the final two spots in the final hours, takes the race for most GARs and PRs—48.


{| style="width:100%; padding:2px;" class="TAFI-weekly"
The intense competition between RO and Calvin999 will continue into the finals. They're both eligible for the Newcomers Trophy, given for the first time in the Wikicup; whoever makes the most points will win it.

Sorry for my past

Hello, ChamithN. This is Akmaie Ajam, and i am returning to edit Misplaced Pages. (Sorry for bad English, my country i live in is Indonesia) Sorry for my past. In 2015 i wanted to edit DirectX. In that time i have little understanding that DirectX is not what needed to run Aero, little experience editing Misplaced Pages, and more. Sorry for vandalism.

Thanks.

  1. Go to the Feedback Request Service page.
  2. Decide which categories are of interest to you, under the RfC and/or GA headings.

Note that if you had a rename and left your old name subscribed to the FRS, you may be receiving this message on your new username's talk page still. If so, make sure your new account name is subscribed to the FRS, using the same procedure mentioned above.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask on the Feedback Request Service talk page, or on the Feedback Request Service bot's operator's talk page. Thank you! Message delivered to you with love by Yapperbot :) | Is this wrong? Contact my bot operator. | Sent at 18:00, 7 October 2024 (UTC)
