Hi, I'm trying to clean up from the TFA. Could you perhaps come back later to avoid edit conflicts? Thank you.-- Wehwalt ( talk) 07:33, 31 August 2015 (UTC)
The finals for the 2015 Wikicup has now begun! Congrats to the 8 contestants who have survived to the finals, and well done and thanks to everyone who took part in rounds 3 and 4.
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
Casliber (
submissions) 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
Coemgenus (
submissions) 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.
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:
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.
Good luck to the finalists; the judges are sure that the competition will be fierce!

Hi, I noticed that your reverted my edit to that article. (You did this manually instead of via "Undo", which means I did not get a notification…) Images should rarely, if ever, use a custom size. The article looks tidier, and the user preference is there for a reason. This image, while powerful, does not need to be blown up that much; it does not have any fine details that would justify doubling the regular thumbnail size. It looks like the whole article has increased size of images, to various degrees; if you think thumbnails are generally too small, I'd recommend pushing phab:T69709 forward rather than breaking the consistency of Wikipedia in your articles.

An editor has asked for a discussion to address the redirect People Excluded From the British Throne. Since you had some involvement with the People Excluded From the British Throne redirect, you might want to participate in the redirect discussion if you have not already done so.

I am being harassed by User: Beyond My Ken. I made a simple edit to relocate a refimprove template at Sutro Baths. BMK has not only edit warred over it, [1] but has come on my talk page to lecture me [2] and accuse me of of improperly editing. [3] He is demanding answers from me about my editing history as if he is a Wikipedia police officer. So, can you please help me with two things. First, to get this guy to stop harassing me. And, second, to please clarify if I'm incorrect when I say that the refimprove template belongs at the top of the article, and not at the bottom of the references section. I looked at the editing history of the Sutro Baths article and the template was originally added in March 2014. [4] BMK moved it in March 2015. [5] I moved it back to the top yesterday. [6] Then, the edit warring began today, with BMK insisting that the template should go in the references section, not at the top of the page. Czoal ( talk) 21:03, 26 September 2015 (UTC)
