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!

Hi there, I've noticed your interest in the Greenback Party (and congratulations your impressive expansion of the 1880 Greenback National Convention article!). I started Solon Chase today and thought you might be interested. Chase was a very influential Greenback that has not received the national coverage in the 20th or 21st centuries that other Greenbacks have, but I have found a significant amount of material in primary sources. Will you take a look and edit as needed?-- TM 20:50, 4 January 2015 (UTC)
Hello Coemgenus...I am currently working on a core summary of Jefferson's Polilical philosophy and views section in the Thomas Jefferson talk page...The orginial section by discussion is to be its own article and replaced by the summary to reduce the size of the article...Any editing help or input from yourself on the core summary in the talk page would be most welcome...Thanks Cmguy777 ( talk) 00:35, 5 January 2015 (UTC)
Hello,
In regard to Coolidge's well known affinity for cowboy costumes - it is no exaggeration. Nearly every Coolidge biography mentions it, including Bill Bryson's recent book: "America: One Summer 1927".
The amount of resources on the web detailing Coolidge's cowboy dress is beyond plentiful. Even the White House site mentions it: http://www.whitehouse.gov/about/presidents/calvincoolidge
I would recommend adding a sentence to acknowledge Coolidge's almost comical indulgence of cowboy outfits.

Hi there, I would like to further commend you for the fine, fine work you've done with the 1880 Greenback Convention article. You have written an article that is interesting and comprehensible on a topic for which sources are not so easy to come by. Great work! I was reading through it and I noticed a name I did not recognize in Kersey Graves. After reading the article for Graves, I have no doubt that he was a Greenback, but I also noticed that there is no mention of it in his article, nor could I find a citation on Google Books. I see that you have access to the book by Mark Lause, so perhaps, could you exapnd Kersey Graves to include information on his participation with the Greenback Party?-- TM 12:52, 14 January 2015 (UTC)

1880 Greenback National Convention you nominated as a

Hi there, I've been digging deeper into the Greenback Party's leaders and I found Jesse Harper (politician). He finished 2nd for the party's nomination for President in 1884 to Ben Butler. He was also national chairman and 1884 candidate for Governor of Illinois. I found this book. Any help you can give in writing and improving this article is greatly appreciated.-- TM 17:23, 17 January 2015 (UTC)

I've just been looking at File:Ogallala.JPG, which you uploaded to WP in 2007 and which was subsequently moved to Commons. I'd like to give the file a more specific name; I'm thinking about "Front Street, Ogallala, Nebraska, 2007.jpg". Insufficient specificity isn't listed as one of the reasons for changing a filename at Commons:File renaming, but I think that we'd be better off with a name that describes the content in a little more detail. Would you be willing to go along with this? I've got file-renaming rights, so given your consent, I'll go ahead and do the rename. (I'll watch this talk page, so you can reply here if you'd like).

That's it, the first round is done, sign-ups are closed and we're into round 2. 64 competitors made it into this round, and are now broken into eight groups of eight. The top two of each group will go through to round 3, and then the top scoring 16 "wildcards" across all groups. Round 1 saw some interesting work on some very important articles, with the round leader
Freikorp (
submissions) owing most of his 622 points scored to a
Featured Article on the 2001 film
Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within which qualified for a times-two multiplier. This is a higher score than in previous years, as
Godot13 (
submissions) had 500 points in 2014 at the end of round 1, and our very own judge,
Sturmvogel_66 (
submissions) led round 1 with 601 points in 2013.
In addition to Freikorp's work, some other important articles and pictures were improved during round one, here's a snapshot of a few of them:

If you want to work on it together, I certainly have no objection. Perhaps we could divide work? I've done up to the Civil War, perhaps you could do the military spell, the election of 1880, and a good part of the presidency, while I focus on the congressional career? You've been there what with Blaine. I think it will take both of us to do the assassination part. That's what people are most interested in.

Hi Coemgenus, I removed your request for a source review for Ulysses S. Grant because it's clear there is still substantive article work going on and fresh commentary coming in as recently as today. As an FAC coordinator, I'd prefer to see the source review when article work is complete as a final step before promotion. As a reviewer, I also would prefer to do a source review when I know things won't change substantively. At the same time, I don't want to see you bumped to the bottom of the waitlist, so please ping me when you feel that article work is complete and I will recuse/do the source review right away. -- Laser brain (talk) 16:01, 19 March 2015 (UTC)

We are preparing to take a closer look at Featured articles promoted in 2004–2010 that may need a review. We started with a script-compiled list of older FAs that have not had a recent formal review. The next step is to prune the list by removing articles that are still actively maintained, up-to-date, and believed to meet current standards. We know that many of you personally maintain articles that you nominated, so we'd appreciate your help in winnowing the list where appropriate.
Please take a look at the sandbox list, check over the FAs listed by your name, and indicate on the sandbox talk page your assessment of their current status. Likewise, if you have taken on the maintenance of any listed FAs that were originally nominated by a departed editor, please indicate their status. BLPs should be given especially careful consideration.

The second round one has all wrapped up, and round three has now begun! Congratulations to the 34 contestants who have made it through, but well done and thank you to all contestants who took part in our second round. Leading the way overall was
Cas Liber (
submissions) in Group B with a total of 777 points for a variety of contributions including Good Articles on
Corona Borealis and
Microscopium - both of which received the maximum bonus.
Special credit must be given to a number of high importance articles improved during the second round.
The points varied across groups, with the lowest score required to gain automatic qualification was 68 in Group A - meanwhile the second place score in Group H was 404, which would have been high enough to win all but one of the other Groups! As well as the top two of each group automatically going through to the third round, a minimum score of 55 was required for a wildcard competitor to go through. We had a three-way tie at 55 points and all three have qualified for the next round, in the spirit of fairness. The third round ends on June 28, with the top two in each group progressing automatically while the remaining 16 highest scorers across all four groups go through as wildcards.

The Mediation Committee has received a request for formal mediation of the dispute relating to "Ulysses S. Grant". As an editor concerned in this dispute, you are invited to participate in the mediation. Mediation is a voluntary process which resolves a dispute over article content by facilitation, consensus-building, and compromise among the involved editors. After reviewing the request page, the formal mediation policy, and the guide to formal mediation, please indicate in the "party agreement" section whether you agree to participate. Because requests must be responded to by the Mediation Committee within seven days, please respond to the request by 5 June 2015.
Discussion relating to the mediation request is welcome at the case talk page. Thank you.

The request for formal mediation of the dispute concerning Ulysses S. Grant, in which you were listed as a party, has been accepted by the Mediation Committee. The case will be assigned to an active mediator within two weeks, and mediation proceedings should begin shortly thereafter. Proceedings will begin at the case information page, Wikipedia:Requests for mediation/Ulysses S. Grant, so please add this to your watchlist. Formal mediation is governed by the Mediation Committee and its Policy. The Policy, and especially the first two sections of the "Mediation" section, should be read if you have never participated in formal mediation. For a short guide to accepted cases, see the "Accepted requests" section of the Guide to formal mediation. You may also want to familiarise yourself with the internal Procedures of the Committee.
As mediation proceedings begin, be aware that formal mediation can only be successful if every participant approaches discussion in a professional and civil way, and is completely prepared to compromise. Please contact the Committee if anything is unclear.

![]() Welcome to the GA Cup! The competition is about to begin! Before you all start reviewing nominations and reassessments we want to make sure you understand the following:
Also, rather than creating a long list on what to remember, make sure you have read the "Scoring", "Submissions", and "FAQ" pages. Now some of you are probably wondering how on earth the rounds will work. The rounds will work in a similar fashion as the previous competition, with the exception of the first round. Round 1 will have everyone compete in one big pool. Depending on the final number of participants after sign-ups close, a to-be-determined number of participants will move on (highest scorers will move on) to Round 2. We guarantee that the top 15 will move on (this number may change), so make sure you aim for those top positions! Moving on to Round 2, participants will be split into pools. The pools will be determined by a computer program that places participants by random. More details regarding Round 2 will be sent out at the end of Round 1. It is important to note that the GA Cup will run on UTC time, so make sure you know what time that is for where you live! On that note, the GA Cup will start on July 1 at 0:00:01 UTC; Round 1 will end on July 29 at 23:59:59 UTC; Round 2 will commence on August 1 at 0:00:01 UTC. All reviews must be started after or on the start time of the round. If you qualify for Round 2 but do not complete a review before the end of Round 1, the review can be carried over to Round 2; however that review will not count for Round 1. Prior to the start of the the second round, participants who qualify to move on will be notified. Finally, if you know anyone else that might be interesting in participating, let them know! Sign-ups close on July 15 so there is still plenty of time to join in on the action! If you have any further questions, contact one of the judges or leave a message here. After sign-ups close, check the Pools page as we will post the exact number of participants that will move on to the next round. Because this number will be determined past the halfway mark of Round 1, we encourage you to aim to be in the top 15 as the top 15 at the end of the round are guaranteed to move on.
