| In July 2015 around 15.5% of the English Wikipedia's biographies were about women. As of July 2023, 19.61% of the English Wikipedia's biographies are about women. That's a lot of biographies created in the effort to close the gender gap. Happy 8th Anniversary!

Anna Shcherbakova - Wikipedia
Hi Riley1012, I hope this find you well. I really appreciate what you have done on Anna Shcherbakova's Wikipedia. But could you please undo the latest revision? 'Cause you've removed so much of what we call truth, and all of this is good for Anna's reputation. GY095 (talk) 14:23, 21 August 2023 (UTC)
- Hello GY095. I can go through and explain the changes I made:
- "However, with time, she became too nervous to watch her daughter's performances." This is about Anna's mother and not Anna herself. It is an unnecessary detail which is why I removed it
- "Shcherbakova is the first female skater to land a quad Lutz with a positive grade of execution on 6 October 2018 at the 2nd stage of the 2018 Russian Cup." The ISU media guide doesn't state that it was a positive GOE, just that she was the first. I've added this information back that aligns better with what the source actually states
- "She won her first Russian champion title at 14 years and seven months old, becoming the third-youngest Russian National champion in history." I initially removed this because I thought the source wasn't clear enough that she was the third youngest. But looking at it again, it says that everyone before 2008 was 18+. So I've added it back in.
- "Additionally, she holds the distinction of being the first woman to accomplish this feat since the introduction of the ISU Judging system, replacing the 6.0 system, in 2004." The source provided doesn't show that she was the first to do so since the 6.0 system, it's just a source of the scoring system change. This information is already implied by the fact that the last skater to 3-peat was Slutskaya during the 6.0 era.
- "With two flawless programs" In my opinion, this violates Wikipedia:NPOV. It is a stretch to describe anything as "flawless."
- "Shcherbakova has graced the cover of numerous magazines." I changed the wording throughout this section from "graced" to "appeared" to make the language more neutral.
- "Known for her diction and erudite manner of speech" The source provided is just a competition result that says nothing about her diction. This could be added back in if a better source is found.
- "As of 29 November 2022, the total reach of the project exceeded 83 million and the number of interactions was over 173 thousand." These statistics are almost a year old which makes them outdated.
--Riley1012 (talk) 15:04, 21 August 2023 (UTC)
- Hi Riley1012, thank you so much for your reply. I agree with the fifth, sixth and last changes, and thanks for the adding information back. For the fourth point, Irina Slutskaya was the last skater won the 3-peat Russian national title during the 6.0 system. The scoring system changed in 2004 and is still in use today, and Anna was the first skater who won the 3-peat Russian national title under ISU Juding System. I can't find any source that mentions Anna's achievement, even Russian sources. But the fact is that Anna achieves this goal. GY095 (talk) 15:34, 21 August 2023 (UTC)

Sammi Brie, with 1575 points, gained mainly from a featured article, 28 good articles and 50 good article reviews. Close behind was- Thebiguglyalien, with 1535 points mainly gained from a featured article, 15 good articles, 26 good article reviews and lots of bonus points.
Between them during round 4, contestants achieved 12 featured articles, 3 featured lists, 3 featured pictures, 126 good articles, 46 DYK entries, 14 ITN entries, 67 featured article candidate reviews and 147 good article reviews. Congratulations to our eight finalists and all who participated! It was a generally high-scoring and productive round and I think we can expect a highly competitive finish to the competition.
Remember that any content promoted after the end of round 4 but before the start of round 5 can be claimed in round 5. Remember too that you must claim your points within 10 days of "earning" them and within 24 hours of the end of the final. If you are concerned that your nomination will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews. It would be helpful if this list could be cleared of any items no longer relevant. If you want to help out with the WikiCup, please do your bit to keep down the review backlogs! Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. If you wish to start or stop receiving this newsletter, please feel free to add or remove your name from Wikipedia:WikiCup/Newsletter/Send.
I will be standing down as a judge after the end of the contest. I think the Cup encourages productive editors to improve their contributions to Wikipedia and I hope that someone else will step up to take over the running of the Cup. Sturmvogel 66 (talk), and Cwmhiraeth (talk)
