Hello! Would you also consider PP of Tour de France? There are probably others too. Thanks for looking, cheers! -- Tgeairn ( talk) 04:14, 24 August 2012 (UTC)
The final is upon us! We are down to our final 8. A massive 573 was our lowest qualifying score; this is higher than the 150 points needed last year and the 430 needed in 2010. Even in 2009, when points were acquired for mainspace edit count in addition to audited content, 417 points secured a place. That leaves this year's WikiCup, by one measure at least, our most competitive ever. Our finalists, ordered by round 4 score, are:
However, we must also say goodbye to the eight who did not make the final, having fallen at the last hurdle: GreatOrangePumpkin ( submissions), Ealdgyth ( submissions), Calvin999 ( submissions), Piotrus ( submissions), Toa Nidhiki05 ( submissions), 12george1 ( submissions), The Bushranger ( submissions) and 1111tomica ( submissions). We hope to see you all next year.
On the subject of next year, a discussion has been opened here. Come and have your say about the competition, and how you'd like it to run in the future. This brainstorming will go on for some time before more focused discussions/polls are opened. As ever, if you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is at good article candidates, a featured process, or anywhere else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews. Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. Good luck! If you wish to start or stop receiving this newsletter, please feel free to add or remove yourself from Wikipedia:WikiCup/Newsletter/Send.

Could you please edit a sandbox (and then leave me a talk page message with a diff) by using a current template to place a version of {{ db-redirnone}} with custom warning text (including formatting, whether what I wrote on {{ db-redirnonebot}} or something else) or any other existing deletion template? I'd prefer using an extant template to insert a custom warning, rather than using my own template, but I'm simply unable to do it with my current level of knowledge. If you can do this, I'll be happy to speedy-delete the new template myself without wasting your time with any other deletion process. Nyttend ( talk) 22:27, 4 September 2012 (UTC)

For your diligent efforts in helping other contributors learn how to do many things very quickly through automation. -- Demiurge1000 ( talk) 00:12, 9 September 2012 (UTC) |
Thank you for replying to my questions at Wikipedia:Bot requests! Enjoy the virtual pie. Good day. ComputerJA ( talk) 17:35, 9 September 2012 (UTC) |
Have you thought about requesting admin rights for the bot so that it can add protection templates to fully protected pages? Callanecc ( talk • contribs • logs) 07:03, 13 September 2012 (UTC)
I have changed the page. Please recheck. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Cuckoo33 ( talk • contribs) 09:30, 13 September 2012 (UTC)
I would like to have a dialogue with you about ProgRockDan1. I respect your opinion and I hope I can communicate with you about the popularity of ProgrockDan1 and the worthiness of it being on Wikipedia. Can you help me have this dialogue? Thank you for your help. — Preceding unsigned comment added by ProgRockDan1 ( talk • contribs) 16:28, 13 September 2012 (UTC)

Why you reverting Article's images without reason?! please don't do that! i just make good faith edit,so you even don't know! if you doesn't know,STOP and you bad!-- 114.79.18.121 ( talk) 05:42, 16 September 2012 (UTC)
Could I persuade you to put a 15 minute delay on adding a semi-protection tag to an article? When I have a rack of protections to do due a sockpuppeteer, I usually go through a sequence of protecting a large number of articles followed by tagging a large number of articles. That puts all the recently protected articles together in a block in my contribution list. Then, for the next few days, I can easily see in my contribution list which articles have been disturbed (because I am no longer the most recent editor) and then investigate. Now, I wind up in a race with the bot as to who can tag it first, and I can't win unless I break my protection sequences up into small blocks. It makes things much less convenient for me.— Kww( talk) 11:24, 17 September 2012 (UTC)
What is the problem with this logo? I noticed that the warring from the IP has started again as soon as my protection expired. Can it be sorted out without you risking a block for edit warring so I can lock it down again at a stable diff? Kudpung กุดผึ้ง ( talk) 11:52, 18 September 2012 (UTC)
Hi. Similar to Kudpung กุดผึ้ง's question above - just wondering what is the problem with the Adobe Creative Suite logo? -- Damaster98 ( talk) 04:27, 20 September 2012 (UTC)
I have more ideas for the bot at Wikipedia:Bot_requests#R_from_misspelling_typo.2Fmisspelling_bot. Emmette Hernandez Coleman ( talk) 10:07, 24 September 2012 (UTC)
Hey Σ/Archive/2012. I'm dropping you a note because you've been using the Page Curation suite recently - this is just to let you know that we've deployed the final version :). There's some help documentation Wikipedia:Page Curation/Introductionhere that shows off all the features, just in case there are things you're not familiar with. If you find any bugs or have requests for new features, let us know here. Thanks! Okeyes (WMF) ( talk) 11:54, 24 September 2012 (UTC)
You've got mail. WormTT( talk) 07:58, 27 September 2012 (UTC)
I've contested and want you to look at the reasons and reply back. Nice name by the way. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Moshewarsaw ( talk • contribs) 02:20, 30 September 2012 (UTC)
