I absolutely despise talkpage templates. Please don't use them here. If you do use one, by all the gods, sign it so it archives and put it in its own section! |
I prefer to keep both sides of my discussions together. If you leave me a message here, I will reply here. But if I left a note on your talk page, feel free to reply there or here, as I'm watching your page for a bit. |

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
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 Wikipedia and I hope that someone else will step up to take over the running of the Cup. Sturmvogel 66 (talk), and Cwmhiraeth (talk)

GA reviews
Ealdgyth, you opened three GA review pages back on 15 March, but haven't returned to begin any of them for over five weeks:
Will you be starting these soon, or should they be put back into the pool of unreviewed nominations for another reviewer to select? Thank you for giving this your attention. BlueMoonset (talk) 22:07, 24 April 2024 (UTC)
- Go ahead and put them back in... I had a rush of clients wanting rush work right after I got those signed up for. I might have free time for them but better to turn to others. Ealdgyth (talk) 23:01, 24 April 2024 (UTC)
GAN Review Enhydriodon
Hi, may you start the review for the GAN, please? Thanks. PrimalMustelid (talk) 10:59, 25 April 2024 (UTC)
- PrimalMustelid, as you will see from the section above, Ealdgyth has asked me to put this nomination, along with the other two, back into the pool of nominations awaiting review with no loss of seniority. I hope this is okay; I have begun the process for the other two, but will hold off in this case for the moment. Please let me know; many thanks. BlueMoonset (talk) 23:51, 25 April 2024 (UTC)
