The Core Contest—Wikipedia's most exciting contest—will take place this year from April 15 to May 31. The goal: to improve vital or other core articles, with a focus on those in the worst state of disrepair. Editing can be done individually, but in the past groups have also successfully competed. There is £300 of prize money divided among editors who provide the "best additive encyclopedic value". Signups are open now. Cheers from the judges, Femke, Casliber, Aza24.
If you wish to start or stop receiving news about The Core Contest, please add or remove yourself from the delivery list.
Hi, I just wanted to thank you for bringing this page more in line with modern science. Many of the pages related to this illness are still riddled with psychobabble and inappropriate sources (psychiatry journals) but I was pleasantly surprised with this page. It's really great what you've done with it. Justpasding ( talk) 03:22, 16 March 2024 (UTC)

Hey, could you create a second delivery list for TCC? Wanting to get one going with the current participants names, so we can send them the notifications for the contest beginning. I can't create it with being an admin or template editor.
P.S. hope you don't mind I stole your TCC message for my own user page! Best – Aza24 (talk) 06:24, 1 April 2024 (UTC)
News and updates for administrators from the past month (March 2024).
On 12 April 2024, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that some people with severe myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome can lose the ability to speak? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page ( here's how, Myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

I see you use this source for many edits on the CFS articles, but I can't find access to it anywhere, including in the Wikipedia Library. Do you know of any way of accessing it, or are you able to email me a copy of the article for use in editing the article? Thx. sciencewatcher ( talk) 02:54, 17 April 2024 (UTC)
Hi Femke, I wanted to ask you this since you are the wikipedia expert on ME/CFS :).
Do you think the PACE trial has enough notability to warrant its own page? It was obviously a big trial that came out with lots of media coverage. Then there were lots of publications and letters critiquing it too. Then there was the whole freedom of information tribunal fiasco and the resulting reanalyses. Recently an opinion piece by Monbiot in the guardian showed a perspective on the trial that wasn’t always covered by the media. It’s a 13 year old trial and still being talked about a lot, more about its controversies than it’s findings.
Do you think that fits the wikipedia notability guidelines?

Hi, sorry to interrupt.
I just want to request you something... Can you indefinitely block CriticallyThinking? He kept making very opinionated edits, especially with the latest Tom & Jerry film.

Hi there! Phase I of the Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/2024 review has concluded, with several impactful changes gaining community consensus and proceeding to various stages of implementation. Some proposals will be implemented in full outright; others will be discussed at phase II before being implemented; and still others will proceed on a trial basis before being brought to phase II. The following proposals have gained consensus:
See the project page for a full list of proposals and their outcomes. A huge thank-you to everyone who has participated so far :) looking forward to seeing lots of hard work become a reality in phase II. theleekycauldron ( talk), via MediaWiki message delivery ( talk) 08:08, 5 May 2024 (UTC)
Please help us fix the article without a mountain of process by being clear with bogazicili that 1+1 does not equal 3. Removing a clearly false statement should not require a long discussion on how 1+2 equals 3 or how the article has changed over time or whatever else. I think it's going to require a lot of stupid process to get past egos and get this fixed if you don't step in with clarity. Thank you. Efbrazil ( talk) 15:33, 9 May 2024 (UTC)

Today's TFA, Felix M. Warburg House, was written by Vami_IV and Epicgenius, introduced: "This article is about another of the great houses that once lined Fifth Avenue in New York. Specifically, this is the mansion of Felix M. Warburg, a Jewish financier who ignored fears of anti-Semitic reprisal to his decided to build himself a big Gothic manor in the middle of New York City. Although the Warburgs no longer remain, their legacy does: the museum is now the home of the Jewish Museum (Manhattan) and the building largely survives as they left it. It's a beautiful building and I hope you will all enjoy it."! - in memory -- Gerda Arendt ( talk) 14:40, 10 May 2024 (UTC)
Hi Femke, do you have a copy of "ME/CFS, case definition, and serological response to Epstein-Barr virus. A systematic literature review"? I think we need to be more precise about "antibody activity". Graham Beards ( talk) 12:44, 11 May 2024 (UTC)
