Hi @ Sarrail I see you're interested in improving food articles. I'm searching for another editor to take a look at the conversation here: /info/en/?search=Talk:Omaha_Steaks. There are a few other editors that have made some changes to the Omaha Steaks article and would like another editor to take a look before pushing it live. I won't be doing it myself because I have a conflict of interest. I would appreciate any help as I've been working on this project for a while and would love to button it up. Let me know if you can help! Omaha Steaks Ashley ( talk) 15:06, 31 October 2022 (UTC)
Wikipedia policy requires that on sports transactions, especially trades, that one of the teams involved confirms the trade. We do not update articles based on anonymous sources. When news likes this breaks, it's usually only when the trade has been agreed to. When the teams make an announcement, the trade usually has been officially completed and that is why we wait. Please do not update the article (or any sports article going forward) until an announcement is made. An example of this is a tweet like this or an article on a team website like this.--Rockchalk 7 17 05:41, 1 November 2022 (UTC)

The 2022 WikiCup has drawn to a close with the final round going down to the wire. The 2022 champion is
During the WikiCup, contestants achieved 37 featured articles, 349 good articles, 360 featured article reviews, 683 good article reviews and 480 In the news items, so Wikipedia has benefited greatly from the activities of WikiCup competitors. Well done everyone! All those who reached the final round will receive awards and the following special awards will be made, based on high performance in particular areas of content creation and review. 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 the overall leader in this field.
Next year's competition will begin on 1 January and possible changes to the rules and scoring are being discussed on the discussion page. You are invited to sign up to take part in the contest; the WikiCup is open to all Wikipedians, both novices and experienced editors, and we hope to have a good turnout for the 2023 competition. Until then, it only remains to once again congratulate our worthy winners and finalists, and thank all participants for their involvement!

Hello Sarrail, I think you should look over Hurricane Danielle (2022) to see if it is notable, because there is currently a debate on whether it is notable. IMO, I think it is notable, cause you know, landfall in Portugal, state of emergency, hundreds of accidents, a town almost completely destroyed, etc. Thanks! ~ Hurricane Su ( talk) 12:39, 29 October 2022 (UTC)
For storms expected to impact land, a draft should be made instead while the storm is not yet notable. The draft should only be moved to article space when information about the storm's impact begins to roll in, which is usually around the time of landfall or closest approach to land.WP:Notability_(weather)#Tropical_cyclones essay HurricaneEdgar 01:42, 3 November 2022 (UTC)
