The 2012 WikiCup has come to a close; congratulations to Cwmhiraeth ( submissions), our 2012 champion! Cwmhiraeth joins our exclusive club of previous winners: Dreamafter (2007), jj137 (2008), Durova (2009), Sturmvogel 66 (2010) and Hurricanehink (2011). Our final standings were as follows:
Prizes for first, second, third and fourth will be awarded, as will prizes for all those who reached the final eight. Every participant who scored in the competition will receive a ribbon of participation. In addition to the prizes based on placement, the following special prizes will be awarded based on high performance in particular areas of content creation. So that the finalists do not have an undue advantage, the prize is awarded to the competitor who scored the highest in any particular field in a single round.
Awards will be handed out in the coming days; please bear with us! This year's competition also saw fantastic contributions in all rounds, from newer Wikipedians contributing their first good or featured articles, right up to highly experienced Wikipedians chasing high scores and contributing to topics outside of their usual comfort zones. It would be impossible to name all of the participants who have achieved things to be proud of, but well done to all of you, and thanks! Wikipedia has certainly benefited from the work of this year's WikiCup participants.
Next year's WikiCup will begin in January. Currently, discussions and polls are open, and all contributions are welcome. You can also sign up for next year's competition. There will be no further newsletters this year, although brief notes may be sent out in December to remind everyone about the upcoming competition. It's been a pleasure to work with you all, and we hope to see you all in January! J Milburn ( talk • email) and The ed17 ( talk • email) 00:23, 1 November 2012 (UTC)

Hey, I just saw this picture of Jen at the premiere of What to Expect..., you should crop it and upload it for her filmography page, because it's her at a film premiere. Idk..just a thought:) It's like the only pic from recently that isn't from her tour. Ar re 02:00, 4 November 2012 (UTC)

Hi Status! Do you think School District 53 Okanagan Similkameen would be a good candidate for featured list status, as right now I'm afraid it doesn't pass 3b of the featured list criteria. This is the only article for this, and it can't be merged into anything, however, I personally believe it passes, but am not sure of what others think. Do you think it does? Thoughts?

Hi. In response to your message to me earlier, WP:TVPLOT suggests that, in a short summary outside of the episode article itself (if there is one or not, doesn't matter), it should be from "100–200 words for each, with upwards of 350 words for complex storylines", it doesn't really matter if there is an episode article or not. If it has an actual episode article, then it should be more words says that same guideline, but in this case, it should be "100–200 words for each, with upwards of 350 words for complex storylines", as already said. "The plot summary is an overview of the episode's main events, so avoid minutiae like dialogue, scene-by-scene breakdowns, individual jokes and technical detail" says that guideline if it helps, and don't hide spoilers per WP:SPOILERS (just in case it is). In your list, most seem good, but some are too long, such as episode 22 summary. I'd be inclined to give a peer review, and I thank you for modelling it of off my list. I have made minor changes, as you probably know. Cheers, TBr and ley 21:24, 18 November 2012 (UTC)
Here's my quick review, I took at look at everything other than episode plot summaries. Looks pretty good overall:

I have only noticed your edits twice recently and twice you have removed perfectly valid content and sources. Here you removed a huge chunk of content from - Home (Phillip Phillips song), claiming that it is unsourced when in fact some of those deleted content are in fact sourced, the content in the Critical reception was sourced to here. It looks like you never even look at the source before deleting it. If the reference wasn't done properly, then there is the citation need tag and other tags you can use. Here in Taylor Swift discography you revert sales number from perfectly valid sources, without giving proper rationale why that is not acceptable and that another outdated one would be preferable. Roughstock is a perfectly valid source, it is not less reliable than Billboard, they get their numbers from the same source which is SoundScan. Please try to engage in editing in a more positive manner. Hzh ( talk) 01:20, 19 November 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading File:Rihanna Diamonds World Tour.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the " my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box.

Hello. A new picture on Demi Lovato's wikipedia page is needed, therefore I legally bought a recent picture of her from getty images and took the full permission to use it on Demi's wiki page.

Nice work on the J.Lo songs page:) By the way, I made a sandbox for her new song w/ Pitbull. Obviously I'm not gonna publish it or anything, but just in case it becomes a single or anything like that, I made it. If you find anything please add it. Ar re 05:03, 17 November 2012 (UTC)

Hey it's just a suggestion, but could you consider linking her videography and discography pages to it? I often find when I'm looking through her song articles it would help. Ar re 08:08, 18 November 2012 (UTC)
Hi. In response to your message to me earlier, WP:TVPLOT suggests that, in a short summary outside of the episode article itself (if there is one or not, doesn't matter), it should be from "100–200 words for each, with upwards of 350 words for complex storylines", it doesn't really matter if there is an episode article or not. If it has an actual episode article, then it should be more words says that same guideline, but in this case, it should be "100–200 words for each, with upwards of 350 words for complex storylines", as already said. "The plot summary is an overview of the episode's main events, so avoid minutiae like dialogue, scene-by-scene breakdowns, individual jokes and technical detail" says that guideline if it helps, and don't hide spoilers per WP:SPOILERS (just in case it is). In your list, most seem good, but some are too long, such as episode 22 summary. I'd be inclined to give a peer review, and I thank you for modelling it of off my list. I have made minor changes, as you probably know. Cheers, TBr and ley 21:24, 18 November 2012 (UTC)
Here's my quick review, I took at look at everything other than episode plot summaries. Looks pretty good overall:

I have only noticed your edits twice recently and twice you have removed perfectly valid content and sources. Here you removed a huge chunk of content from - Home (Phillip Phillips song), claiming that it is unsourced when in fact some of those deleted content are in fact sourced, the content in the Critical reception was sourced to here. It looks like you never even look at the source before deleting it. If the reference wasn't done properly, then there is the citation need tag and other tags you can use. Here in Taylor Swift discography you revert sales number from perfectly valid sources, without giving proper rationale why that is not acceptable and that another outdated one would be preferable. Roughstock is a perfectly valid source, it is not less reliable than Billboard, they get their numbers from the same source which is SoundScan. Please try to engage in editing in a more positive manner. Hzh ( talk) 01:20, 19 November 2012 (UTC)
Do you think, If I work on it more, Taylor's article is worthy of a GA nomination?? I'm not going to or anything, I just want your opinion Ar re 04:07, 19 November 2012 (UTC)

A number of your edits, including [1] [2] [3], are in violation of mosdate, and WP:DATERET in particular. Also, by simply undoing, you removed other fixes I did in some of those edits. This constitutes notice that if you continue to change the established style of articles, you may be WP:BLOCKed without further warning. Gimmetoo ( talk) 14:02, 20 November 2012 (UTC)

You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
