The 2020 WikiCup has come to an end, with the final round going down to the wire. Our new Champion is
Lee Vilenski (
submissions), the runner-up last year, who was closely followed by
Gog the Mild (
submissions). In the final round, Lee achieved 4 FAs and 30 GAs, mostly on cue sport topics, while Gog achieved 3 FAs and 15 GAs, mostly on important battles and wars, which earned him a high number of bonus points.
The Rambling Man (
submissions) was in third place with 4 FAs and 8 GAs on football topics, with
Epicgenius (
submissions) close behind with 19 GAs and 16 DYK's, his interest being the buildings of New York.
The other finalists were
Hog Farm (
submissions),
HaEr48 (
submissions),
Harrias (
submissions) and
Bloom6132 (
submissions). The final round was very productive, and besides 15 FAs, contestants achieved 75 FAC reviews, 88 GAs and 108 GAN reviews. Altogether, Wikipedia has benefited greatly from the activities of WikiCup competitors all through the contest. Well done everyone!
All those who reached the final will receive awards and the following special awards will be made, based on high performance in particular areas of content creation. 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 in the event of a tie, to the overall leader in this field.
Next year's competition will begin on 1 January. You are invited to sign up to participate; the WikiCup is open to all Wikipedians, both novices and experienced editors, and we hope to see you all in the 2021 competition. Until then, it only remains to once again congratulate our worthy winners, and thank all participants for their involvement!

If you believe the information does not belong on the page, then you should at least provide an explanation beyond "copyedit", which is not an actual explanation. Since the content in question is easily verifiable as being true and is not obviously completely unrelated to the subject matter of the article, you should probably discuss whether or not you think it is relevant on the talk page before removing it.
