Please see WP:RMV, always need an edit summary explaining why you're removing something when deleting content. I'm not gonna revert your revert since that would be pointless because I can see why the content was removed, but wouldn't have been a problem if an edit summary had been used in the first place. But ″that was a good edit″ is not an explanation either. -- TylerBurden ( talk) 07:50, 11 January 2022 (UTC)

And so ends the first round of the WikiCup. Last year anyone who scored more than zero points moved on to Round 2, but this was not the case this year, and a score of 13 or more was required to proceed. The top scorers in Round 1 were:
These contestants, like all the others who qualified for Round 2, now have to start scoring points again from scratch. Between them, contestants completed reviews of a large number of good articles as the contest ran concurrently with a GAN backlog drive. Well done all! To qualify for Round 3, contestants will need to finish Round 2 among the top thirty-two participants.
Remember that any content promoted after the end of Round 1 but before the start of Round 2 can be claimed in Round 2. Anything that should have been claimed for in Round 1 is no longer eligible for points. Invitations for collaborative writing efforts or any other discussion of potentially interesting work is always welcome on the WikiCup talk page. Remember, if two or more WikiCup competitors have done significant work on an article, all can claim points. 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 Needed.
Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. Good luck!

The second round of the 2022 WikiCup has now finished. It was a high-scoring round and contestants needed 115 points to advance to round 3. There were some very impressive efforts in round 2, with the top seven contestants all scoring more than 500 points. A large number of the points came from the 11 featured articles and the 79 good articles achieved in total by contestants.
Our top scorers in round 2 were:
The rules for featured and good article reviews require the review to be of sufficient length; brief quick fails and very short reviews will generally not be awarded points. Remember also that DYKs cannot be claimed until they have appeared on the main page. As we enter the third round, any content promoted after the end of round 2 but before the start of round 3 can be claimed now, and anything you forgot to claim in round 2 cannot! Remember too, that you must claim your points within 14 days of "earning" them. When doing GARs, please make sure that you check that all the GA criteria are fully met.
If you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is at good article nominations, a featured process, or anything else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews Needed (remember to remove your listing when no longer required).

The fact was ... that 11 years after it opened in 1993, Currambine railway station was rebuilt 60 metres (200 ft) to the east? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Currambine railway station. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page ( here's how, Currambine railway station), and if they received a combined total of at least 416.7 views per hour (i.e., 5,000 views in 12 hours or 10,000 in 24), the hook may be added to the statistics page. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

Thank you for correcting my mistake here but to learn from this, can I ask if the existance of a wikilink article or any article is mandatory? I have viewed other wikipedia place entries where there were no wikilinks. Sdinesh2222 ( talk) 06:41, 22 August 2022 (UTC)
The article John D'Orazio you nominated as a good article has passed ; see Talk:John D'Orazio for comments about the article. Well done! If the article has not already appeared on the main page as a "Did you know" item, or as a bold link under "In the News" or in the "On This Day" prose section, you can nominate it within the next seven days to appear in DYK. Bolded names with dates listed at the bottom of the "On This Day" column do not affect DYK eligibility.

Hi, I noticed that you reverted my to the 2021 Western Australian state election. The main point seemed to be regarding the explanation of the significance and meaning of the table.
Personally I felt that the line at the bottom of the table,
"The Gallagher Index ranges from 0 to 100. Low indexes (close to 0) are very proportionate, high indexes (20 or greater) are very disproportionate"
was sufficient to explain what the number (25.71) meant, as well as why it was significant (i.e. 25.71 is above 20, therefore the election is very disproportionate, as party seat percentage vary drastically from their vote percentages). The rest of the figures in the table are either raw data from the results table (votes and seats) or calculated from that data as indicated in each column/row title.
As a result I would appreciate your input into how I could make this clearer.
Regarding the other point, citations, I didn't think them necessary since all of the raw data was sourced from the (cited) results table on the page, however, I will add an input for them to the template, as there is no reason not to.
Regards, Kermanbob ( talk) 13:41, 5 September 2022 (UTC)
The Gallagher Index ranges from 0 to 100. Low indexes (close to 0) are very proportionate, high indexes (20 or greater) are very disproportionate.That statement has no source. Those seem like arbitrary numbers that have no reason behind them. There is no comparison with other Australian elections so the numbers in the table don't really mean anything to someone reading the article.
This is to let you know that the Daglish railway station article has been scheduled as today's featured article for October 9, 2022. Please check the article needs no amendments. If you're interested in editing the main page text, you're welcome to do so at Wikipedia:Today's featured article/October 9, 2022, but note that a coordinator will trim the lead to around 1000 characters anyway, so you aren't obliged to do so.
For Featured Articles promoted recently, there will be an existing blurb linked from the FAC talk page, which is likely to be transferred to the TFA page by a coordinator at some point.
We suggest that you watchlist Wikipedia:Main Page/Errors from the day before this appears on Main Page. Thanks! Jimfbleak - talk to me? 09:04, 9 September 2022 (UTC)
you should put your GA skills to Avon, Narrogin and Merredin - in their day important railway locations of their sorts - as they stand they are crap (the articles) to use politest language. The marshalling yard in Avon is being revitalised after being butchered, but Narrogin and Merredin locations are decimated. The dreams and hopes of the Merredin yard were taken out by the loss of the feeder lines, and the Wagin book by Peter Gould Gould, Peter (2017), Lakes and rails : Wagin's railway history (Revised ed.), Peter Gould, ISBN 978-0-648-22560-7 (in its own bizarre way a history of narrogin),
but no one has really tackled the Avon yard/Northam complex that I know of. JarrahTree 09:51, 22 September 2022 (UTC)
hello, Steelkamp! i had a quick question regarding this article and the associated blurb. the article on the airport line mentions that the line will be opening on the day the blurb runs, with regular services commencing the day after. sources from transperth and metronet appear to confirm this, while a my say transport source suggests that a train will run on opening day, albeit not part of regular services. would it be more appropriate to state that daglish station is on the airport line as of the official opening day, rather than the day regular services commence? dying ( talk) 08:54, 7 October 2022 (UTC)
Thank you today for the article "about a small railway station in Perth, Western Australia. With not much changing about it since it was built in the 1920s, it is quite a short article. With eight railway station good articles, I figured I must get at least one as a featured article, to make sure I'm getting the structure and everything else right. I have used the feedback given to me by my eight station good article reviews to improve this article to hopefully make this my first featured article."! - Great work! Looking at all the GAs, there's potential for more. Enjoy your first TFA! -- Gerda Arendt ( talk) 06:40, 9 October 2022 (UTC)

running alongside that line to Perth station, before running alongside the
I had sent an earlier message this am - and it was intended for the array of modifications and various misdemenours that follow when an article is thrown into the larger soup - and I am sure it will be ongoing over time, considering the incomplete feeling say, that the bayswater stations surrounds emanate for instance. It was not agin your personal edits, but the range of fiddling with the long delay in the line and related issues arising from an intriguing field of editors other than yourself.
The map as presented inside the passenger stock doing the railway lines, has the airport line to claremont as if they are separate lines... intriguing, and my comment this am was related to a certain disbelief that transperth has been constructing a separate line within the metro rail system. The maps do not represent the structures but the operations, and
it is surprising that there hasnt been more about it - unless someone can show me photos that show that Transperth has in fact been constructing a third line where there has been only two...
Apart from that I must note serious appreciation for the extent of contributions on commons towards the record for the new line and works by yourself, Callistemon and Evad - the comprehensive work that you all have done for a good record of an important stage in the development of railway structures in Perth - a big thanks! It had been a concern during the initial stages of the recent covid shut down that there was insufficient evidence of the changes/transformations - yours and others work have it well covered! Thanks for that. JarrahTree 08:29, 10 October 2022 (UTC)

OK so you found some redeeeming features, well done, but that should not encourage rampant creation of dubious stubs - nor should adding all the requirements be something that you or others have to add to make it a workable stub. I do not have the intention of retracting anything that I have stated on wiki - and even the spelling of the word vain has me somewhat concerned... So thanks for cleaning it up, but...

Hi Steelkamp,
Do you know anything about
Cow-calf locomotives in Australia? The article presently claims that The cow-calf concept was adopted on Queensland 2 ft gauge sugar cane railways with two locomotives being coupled permanently in multiple-unit mode with the cab of one removed. This was utilized by Isis Mill (1980-1993) and by Mackay Sugar (2005).
but I can't find any sources to sustain this, besides a few railfan forums which obviously aren't sufficient as reliable sources. I'd hate to delete information that's likely correct, but if I can't find any reliable sources, I'll have to. I know you edit about Australian trains, so I thought you might know if any sources exist regarding these locomotives. Thanks!

You may well have a command of what makes sense to you, to see something that is linked to a redirect, to me makes no sense, regardless of the preponderance of rules etc - as for GinGin the whole naming thing is a bloody nightmare to use australian lingo - the amount of confusion of the one word and the split word usage across locations and states is something that only gets messier on trove. Also- [15] - there is a specific issue in relation to the issues raised on the talk page that suggests a general incomprehension of WP:ABOUT and WP:NOT - however, I think the general import of lack of understanding about being blocked and why, might simply stay that way. I for one would not like to venture there again, I think my comments to date are sufficient. JarrahTree 08:01, 3 December 2022 (UTC)
