So ends the first round of the 2023 WikiCup. Everyone with a positive score moved on to Round 2, with 54 contestants qualifying. The top scorers in Round 1 were:
The top sixteen contestants at the end of Round 1 had all scored over 300 points; these included LunaEatsTuna,
Thebiguglyalien,
Sammi Brie,
Trainsandotherthings,
Lee Vilenski,
Juxlos,
Unexpectedlydian,
SounderBruce,
Kosack,
BennyOnTheLoose and
PCN02WPS. It was a high-scoring start to the competition.
These contestants, like all the others, now have to start again from scratch. The first round finished on February 26. Remember that any content promoted after that date but before the start of Round 2 can be claimed in Round 2. Some contestants made claims before the new submissions pages were set up, and they will need to resubmit them. 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 it is at good article candidates, a featured process, or anywhere else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews Needed.
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. Good luck!

Wikipedia:Good article reassessment/SweeTango/1; darn, that was the best of the bunch! Unlike the others we are working so hard on, at least your GAN work had left it with good prose. I hope you can bring it back; of all that I've seen, it was the most worthy of the GA. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 14:50, 3 March 2023 (UTC)
Don't delete episode lists. Please don't delete the episodes list for the shows. There are episodes of Raw & Smackdown.

TV Shows Hello fellow wikipedians, Is the a possibility we could list all of the wwe tv shows episodes by season and year like the other tv shows have done or can we only do the special episodes only?. Only asking. Mansterman89 (talk) 21:27, 28 February 2023 (UTC)
No idea what you're talking about. I have done nothing wrong nor have i broken any rules. We already discussed the episodes on this space. You continue to make me feel like I have done something wrong, which I haven't. Mansterman89 (talk) 01:52, 7 March 2023 (UTC)
I have just closed the poll at Wikipedia talk:Good article nominations, and you are now officially a GAR coordinator. Congratulations, I guess. Happy editing, —Kusma (talk) 09:46, 7 March 2023 (UTC)

Thanks for your thoughts at the GAR for Ramsdell Theatre. I worked on this article before & when it was nominated and felt some responsibilty for its GA designation so I took it on. I took on the GAR for both it and Thomas Johnston (engraver) (Johnston because I was the GA Reviewer). This has all been a necessarily detailed but also an excruciating process...I had no idea when I started that some of the text/information/referencing was so problematic...errors, close paraphrasing, copyvios, etc. So much research! So much rewriting! Taking everything apart and putting it back together again! Thanks again, Shearonink (talk) 16:10, 6 March 2023 (UTC)

Hello sir we had a big discussion about the birthplace of Rumi, but at the end they just ignored it and archived it, could you please have a look at it here Best regards Af420 (talk) 07:25, 17 March 2023 (UTC)
Af420 is warned not to make personal attacks, Rumi infobox changed back to the status quo ante, and editors advised to take this to WP:3O or WP:DRN if they wish to continue to pursue this dispute. signed, Rosguill talk 20:50, 16 March 2023 (UTC), which you should respect.

Thanks for blocking Clapper319. This user is an LTA who has been causing trouble for a while (see filter log and a previous account). Could the block be extended into an indefinite block? Aidan9382 (talk) 12:16, 24 March 2023 (UTC)
