WikiCup 2022 May newsletter
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:
- Epicgenius, with 1264 points from 2 featured article, 4 good articles and 18 DYKs. Epicgenius was a finalist last year but has now withdrawn from the contest as he pursues a new career path.
- AryKun, with 1172 points from two featured articles, one good article and a substantial number of featured article and good article reviews.
- Bloom6132, with 605 points from 44 in the news items and 4 DYKs.
- Sammi Brie, with 573 points from 8 GAs and 21 DYKs.
- Ealdgyth, with 567 points from 11 GAs and 34 good and featured article reviews.
- Panini!, with 549 points from 1 FA, 4 GAs and several other sources.
- Lee Vilenski, with 545 points from 1 FA, 4 GAs and a number of reviews.
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). Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. Good luck! If you wish to start or stop receiving this newsletter, please feel free to add or remove your name from Wikipedia:WikiCup/Newsletter/Send.

Hey, what's up?
I know this is a bit out of the blue, but I saw your retirement messages and just hoped you were ok. I don't know if this counts for anything since I'm effectively just a random editor, but I think you're cool and a good person to have around. I hope Wikipedia hasn't been stressing you out. If taking care of yourself means stepping away from Wikipedia, so be it. But if you want to stick around, and you want to vent or chat, I'm around. – Anon423 (talk) 07:58, 4 May 2022 (UTC)
- Unfortunately, Wikipedia has been stressing me out for the past couple of weeks, seemingly to forget the rules. This is why I chose to retire, to review all the rules, to get back on track. Maybe at the end of the month, or August would be a good time to come back. Severestorm28 12:55, 4 May 2022 (UTC)
- It's possibly ironic, but I find that helping at places such as the Teahouse, Help desk, and #wikipedia-en-help (and #wikipedia-en-helpers) on IRC has been a decent way to get brushed up on miscellaneous policies in a way that isn't just reading. Wikipedia can be a lonely hobby, so it can be good to find ways to be a bit social. I find that the Discord server is also a nice place to hang out for general chat; there's a good energy in the air. – Anon423 (talk) 23:53, 5 May 2022 (UTC)
- Thank you for the suggestions; I may go to those places later. I am going to take break, but I will be on-and-off Wikipedia, mainly helping with sources, anti-vandalism, and grammarical edits. Again, thank you for the suggestions. Severestorm28 00:06, 6 May 2022 (UTC)
