Ramnami Samaj as the TOTW article

@TryKid Hi! I wanted to let you know that the article Ramnami Samaj is a current candidate to be chosen for the meta:Translation of the week project, meaning if it succeeds it could be translated into several other languages in the span of a week. If you want to see how the process is going and vote yourself, you can check it at meta:Translation of the week/Translation candidates#en:Ramnami Samaj. Have a nice day!

The fourth round of the 2024 WikiCup ended on 29 August. Each of the 8 contestants who advanced to Round 4 scored at least 472 points, and the following contestants scored more than 700 points:

• Generalissima (submissions) with 1,150 points, mostly from 3 featured articles, 2 featured lists, 7 good articles, and 13 did you know nominations;
• Arconning (submissions) with 791 points, mostly from 2 featured lists, 8 good articles, 4 did you know nominations, and plenty of reviews;

• BennyOnTheLoose (submissions) with 714 points, mostly from 1 featured article on Susanna Hoffs, 2 featured lists, and 3 good articles.

Congratulations to our eight finalists and all who participated. Contestants put in extraordinary amounts of effort during this round, and their scores can be seen here. So far this year, competitors have gotten 36 featured articles, 55 featured lists, 15 good articles, 93 in the news credits, and at least 333 did you know credits. They have conducted 357 featured content reviews, as well as 553 good article reviews and peer reviews, and have added 30 articles to featured topics and good topics.

Any content promoted after 29 August but before the start of Round 5 can be claimed during Round 5, which starts on 1 September at 00:00 (UTC). Invitations for collaborative writing efforts or any other discussion of potentially interesting work is always welcome on the WikiCup talk page. 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 for a good article, featured content, or anything else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews Needed. Remember to claim your points within 14 days of earning them, and importantly, before the deadline on 31 October.

DYK for Haravijaya

On 8 October 2024, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Haravijaya, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Ratnākara's Haravijaya is the longest extant Sanskrit mahākāvya? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Haravijaya. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Haravijaya), 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.
