The fourth round of the competition has finished, with anyone scoring less than 673 points being eliminated. It was a high scoring round with all but one of the contestants who progressed to the final having achieved an FA during the round. The highest scorers were
Epicgenius, with 2173 points topping the scores, gained mainly from a featured article, 38 good articles and 9 DYKs. He was followed by
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.

Facstats data
Here's the data you asked for. I haven't done any validation on this other than checking one record to see if it matched reality, so you might look at a couple more before having faith in it; I have to head out for the evening shortly so was a bit short of time. I'm curious as to what you're planning to use this for?

Thanks very much! Primarily, as a list to search through adminship candidates. If an editor is on this list, has a clean block log, and has some maintenance experience, there's a good chance they'd make a strong candidate. It needs more vetting than that, of course, but I suspect this will be a stronger starting point than most. I specifically wanted first-timers, though, because old hands have probably already been looked at, and are either unwilling or unsuitable.

The third round of the 2024 WikiCup ended on 28 June. As with Round 2, this round was competitive: each of the 16 contestants who advanced to Round 4 scored at least 256 points.
The following editors all scored more than 400 points in Round 3:
Sammi Brie (
submissions) with 557 points, mostly from 1 featured article on
KNXV-TV, 5 good articles, and 8 did you know nominations; and
AryKun (
submissions) with 415 points, mostly from 1 featured article on
Great cuckoo-dove, with a high number of bonus points from that article.
The full scores for round 3 can be seen
here. So far this year, competitors have gotten 28 featured articles, 38 featured lists, 240 good articles, 92
in the news credits, and at least 285
did you know credits. They have conducted 279 featured article reviews, as well as 492 good article reviews and peer reviews, and have added 22 articles to
featured topics and
good topics.
Remember that any content promoted after 28 June but before the start of Round 4 can be claimed during Round 4, which starts on 1 July 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. 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 for a good article, featured content, or anything else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on
Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews Needed.

Hi Vanamonde, I know that you have little time for J.K Rowling (and probably want to have nothing to do with it) but after having it off my watchlist for a few weeks I looked in tonight to find that the criticism section has been hollowed out. I've reverted but can't spend time on the talk page (and honestly am not one of the main contribs/authors) and so am dumping this here, to be blunt. Feel free to ignore. Hope all is well,
Victoria (

@
Victoriaearle: Thanks for the note...I haven't had the time or stamina to engage with the transgender views debate. I'm not happy with these removals, though, and I'd missed them in the flurry of other edits, so thank you for bringing them to my attention (I have also made a further revert). I don't know if I can engage in extensive discussion about them, but I will attempt to stop by.

Ah, I missed the edit to the reception section. I hear you regarding not having time of stamina. I really only barely have energy for another article that needs work at the moment. Once I'm done there, I'll put Rowling back on watch, but don't want the distraction until later. All that said, in my view the literary criticism section is worth keeping. Be well,
