The Core Contest—Wikipedia's most exciting contest—will take place this year from April 15 to May 31. The goal: to improve vital or other core articles, with a focus on those in the worst state of disrepair. Editing can be done individually, but in the past groups have also successfully competed. There is £300 of prize money divided among editors who provide the "best additive encyclopedic value". Signups are open now. Cheers from the judges, Femke, Casliber, Aza24.

Hello,
Thanks for your comments and the review of infectious mononucleosis.
Thinking more of the article, it has another big issue, which I am not sure if / how it can be resolved; While there are other causes mentioned, like CMV and some others loosely supported, the vast majority of the content and the sources are specific to the EBV infection. So it definitely cannot pass at this point and I shouldn't had nominated it. Still thanks for taking the time to review it and add these thoughts.
I think that, in medicine related content (one of the two I plan to focus on) I will try contributing to some other less structurally complex articles first before giving another shot to this one and trying to resolve the blocking issues (while probably still trying to do some smaller improvements/updates)
Thanks in any case! Konstantina07 ( talk) 22:48, 29 February 2024 (UTC)

Hi there, I'm pleased to inform you that I've begun reviewing the article Myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome you nominated for GA-status according to the criteria. This process may take up to 7 days. Feel free to contact me with any questions or comments you might have during this period. Message delivered by ChristieBot, on behalf of Maxim Masiutin -- Maxim Masiutin ( talk) 12:07, 9 March 2024 (UTC)
The article Myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome you nominated as a good article has passed ; see Talk:Myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome for comments about the article, and Talk:Myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome/GA1 for the nomination. Well done! If the article is eligible to appear in the "Did you know" section of the Main Page, you can nominate it within the next seven days.

Hey there! This is to let you know that phase I of the 2024 requests for adminship (RfA) review is now no longer accepting new proposals. Lots of proposals remain open for discussion, and the current round of review looks to be on a good track towards making significant progress towards improving RfA's structure and environment. I'd like to give my heartfelt thanks to everyone who has given us their idea for change to make RfA better, and the same to everyone who has given the necessary feedback to improve those ideas. The following proposals remain open for discussion:
To read proposals that were closed as unsuccessful, please see Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/2024 review/Phase I/Closed proposals. You are cordially invited once again to participate in the open discussions; when phase I ends, phase II will review the outcomes of trial proposals and refine the implementation details of other proposals. Another notification will be sent out when this phase begins, likely with the first successful close of a major proposal. Happy editing! theleekycauldron ( talk • she/her), via:

Hi, I just wanted to thank you for bringing this page more in line with modern science. Many of the pages related to this illness are still riddled with psychobabble and inappropriate sources (psychiatry journals) but I was pleasantly surprised with this page. It's really great what you've done with it. Justpasding ( talk) 03:22, 16 March 2024 (UTC)
On 18 March 2024, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Outcome switching, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that in nearly one in three clinical trials, authors engage in outcome switching, which can undermine the reliability of the trials? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Outcome switching. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page ( here's how, Outcome switching), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed. 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.

Hey, could you create a second delivery list for TCC? Wanting to get one going with the current participants names, so we can send them the notifications for the contest beginning. I can't create it with being an admin or template editor.
P.S. hope you don't mind I stole your TCC message for my own user page! Best – Aza24 (talk) 06:24, 1 April 2024 (UTC)
News and updates for administrators from the past month (March 2024).
On 12 April 2024, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that some people with severe myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome can lose the ability to speak? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page ( here's how, Myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed. 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.

I see you use this source for many edits on the CFS articles, but I can't find access to it anywhere, including in the Wikipedia Library. Do you know of any way of accessing it, or are you able to email me a copy of the article for use in editing the article? Thx. sciencewatcher ( talk) 02:54, 17 April 2024 (UTC)
Hi Femke, I wanted to ask you this since you are the wikipedia expert on ME/CFS :).
Do you think the PACE trial has enough notability to warrant its own page? It was obviously a big trial that came out with lots of media coverage. Then there were lots of publications and letters critiquing it too. Then there was the whole freedom of information tribunal fiasco and the resulting reanalyses. Recently an opinion piece by Monbiot in the guardian showed a perspective on the trial that wasn’t always covered by the media. It’s a 13 year old trial and still being talked about a lot, more about its controversies than it’s findings.
Do you think that fits the wikipedia notability guidelines?
