Round one of the 2015 WikiCup has begun! So far we've had around 80 signups, which close on February 5. If you have not already signed up and want to do so, then you can add your name here. There have been changes to to several of the points scores for various categories, and the addition of Peer Reviews for the first time. These will work in the same manner as Good Article Reviews, and all of the changes are summarised here.
Remember that only the top 64 scoring competitors will make it through to the second round, and one of the new changes this year is that all scores must be claimed within two weeks of an article's promotion or appearance, so don't forget to add them to your submissions pages! If you are concerned that your nomination will not receive the necessary reviews, and you hope to get it promoted before the end of the round, please list it on
Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews. However, please remember to continue to offer reviews at GAN, FAC and all the other pages that require them to prevent any backlogs which could otherwise be caused by the Cup. As ever, questions are welcome on
Wikipedia talk:WikiCup and the judges are reachable on their talk pages. Good luck!

We went over this a year or so ago. These are just filmography tables that were split from the main articles, these are not BLPs. By adding all this content, you are basically creating a second BLP for the same person. Check with the wikiproject for blps... - theWOLFchild 18:38, 6 January 2015 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading File:Maroon 5 One More Night cover.png. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information.
To add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia. For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. -- ImageTaggingBot ( talk) 00:06, 16 January 2015 (UTC)

You did an impressive work on Sugar (music video) :) Can't wait when you will finish " Suit & Tie's" music video article, since i'm planning to translate it into my language. :) Btw it would be so great you write an article for " Moves like Jagger's" music video. ^ Cheers, i'm from Europe too. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 46.130.153.83 ( talk) 10:24, 19 January 2015 (UTC)
Thanks for uploading File:Drunk in Love cover.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image 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 images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Stefan2 ( talk) 21:34, 24 January 2015 (UTC)
Why are you constantly removing my images? Is there a problem because you're switching to basically EVERY article and removing my images. Are they bothering you or something because they looked perfectly fine to me! OZODOR (Talk to me!) 03:22, 25 January 2015 (UTC)
This is to inform you that Cry Me a River (Justin Timberlake song), which you nominated at WP:FAC, will appear on the Main Page as Today's Featured Article on 25 January 2015. The proposed main page blurb is here; you may amend if necessary. Please check for dead links and other possible faults before the appearance date. Please note that scheduled date is 25th, not 24th as provisionally scheduled. Brianboulton ( talk) 16:03, 7 January 2015 (UTC)

Rihanna has led a pretty impressive chart run in just 10 years, huh? — ₳aron 19:43, 26 January 2015 (UTC)
Your edit comment here leaves too much to the imagination. Obviously I did not think it "useless" to provide a link to the better-known song of the same name which Timberlake chose to, erm, "recycle", as distinct from a cover recording. Such hat notes are the established way to do this on wp if a full disambiguation page is not needed. LeadSongDog come howl! 02:01, 26 January 2015 (UTC)
@ LeadSongDog: Usually when there is a disambiguation in the title [like is the case here] we don't need hatnotes. The title itself states (Justin Timberlake song) not cover. That's the reason I reverted your edit. And also, I am not sure whether the blues song is more known from JT's one. I am from Macedonia, and generally in whole Europe everybody knows that "Cry Me a River" is a JT song, and not some blues song [no offense]. — Tomíca (T2ME) 07:52, 28 January 2015 (UTC)

Hi Tomica, about this [1], when you upload a png image to replace an existing jpg, please make sure the new png is as sharp as the old jpg. Based on your recent uploads [2] vs [3], and [4] vs [5], your image reduction software "Free Picture Resizer" [6] is not doing a good job. I understand that png is a lossless file storage format and jpg is not, but there is no benefit in replacing a sharp image with a dull one – no matter what file system is used to store the image. Most image reduction software produce a small image by averaging adjacent (neighboring) pixels, therefore the resulting small image is almost always dull and un-sharp. Please either use a better image reduction software, or like many of us after you reduce the image in size then please sharpen it in (or with) another software step. Thank you.

This message is being sent to let you know of a discussion at the Wikipedia:Dispute resolution noticeboard regarding a content dispute discussion you may have participated in.

You are not required to participate, but you are both invited and encouraged to help this dispute come to a resolution. The thread is " Sugar (Maroon 5 song)".

No doubt it's my fault that he has once again taken semi-retirement because he didn't get his own way on Rihanna last night. He's only 15 and it really shows. He should start editing Wikipedia when he has matured. — ₳aron 08:59, 17 February 2015 (UTC)
