WikiCup 2021 May newsletter
The second round of the 2021 WikiCup has now finished; it was a high-scoring round and contestants needed 61 points to advance to Round 3. There were some impressive efforts in the round, with the top eight contestants all scoring more than 400 points. A large number of the points came from the 12 featured articles and the 110 good articles achieved in total by contestants, as well as the 216 good article reviews they performed; the GAN backlog drive and the stay-at-home imperative during the COVID-19 pandemic may have been partially responsible for these impressive figures.
Our top scorers in Round 2 were:
The Rambling Man, with 2963 points from three featured articles, 20 featured article reviews, 37 good articles, 73 good article reviews, as well as 22 DYKs.
Epicgenius, with 1718 points from one featured article, 29 good articles, 16 DYKs and plenty of bonus points.
Bloom6132, with 990 points from 13 DYKs and 64 "In the news" items, mostly recent deaths.
Hog Farm, with 834 points from two featured articles, five good articles, 14 featured article reviews and 15 good article reviews.
Gog the Mild, with 524 points from two featured articles and four featured article reviews.
Lee Vilenski, with 501 points from one featured article, three good articles, six featured article reviews and 25 good article reviews.
Sammi Brie, with 485 points from four good articles, eight good article reviews and 27 DYKs, on US radio and television stations.
Ktin, with 436 points from four good articles, seven DYKs and 11 "In the news" items.
.svg){kind=small}
Please remember 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 (except for at the end of each round, when you must claim them before the cut-off date/time). 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.

GA review
Hi, I nominated the article Moynihan Train Hall to WP:GA, as you heavily contributed to the article, I want to ask you to make the review. I translated the article to the Portuguese wikipedia, where its on GA process. Thank you. 𝑷𝒂𝒛 𝒆 𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒄𝒐́𝒓𝒅𝒊𝒂 What's up? 13:36, 5 May 2021 (UTC)
- Paz e concórdia, thanks for the heads up. I really appreciate it. As for the review - unfortunately, because I am a major contributor, I cannot review the article per WP:GAN/I#R2, which says that nominators or major contributors can't review their own articles. However, I will keep an eye on the nomination. Epicgenius (talk) 13:43, 5 May 2021 (UTC)
- @Epicgenius, oh, I don't knew that. I am not very familiarized with tha GA rules here. Do you have any idea of someone who can start the review? Thanks. 𝑷𝒂𝒛 𝒆 𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒄𝒐́𝒓𝒅𝒊𝒂 What's up? 13:54, 5 May 2021 (UTC)
- Paz e concórdia, I might know of a few people, but it may be considered canvassing if I were to ask any specific reviewer at this moment. I would advise to wait a short time, as nominations are usually taken up within a month or so. If the nomination is sitting around longer than that, I could ask around.

Bad coordinates in article again
Please check all coordinates before your DYK articles get to the Front Page. I had to fix Ritz Tower just now. These errors cannot be allowed to continue. Abductive (reasoning) 14:01, 10 May 2021 (UTC)
- Abductive, sorry about that. In some cases I expand existing articles with bad coordinates, but these are from NRHP databases. I will have to check these from now on. I think this is about the fourth or fifth time this issue has been discussed, but for some reason I only checked my new articles. Epicgenius (talk) 14:11, 10 May 2021 (UTC)
- I just corrected two more in that are in the DYK process. Abductive (reasoning) 22:34, 10 May 2021 (UTC)
- Abductive, that is weird. For Lescaze and 219 East 49th, I extracted these coordinates on OSM (not from an external source) as they were new article creations. I'm not sure how these errors got into these articles. Epicgenius (talk) 22:38, 10 May 2021 (UTC)
- I use Wikimapia which allows for instant toggling between Google, Bing and OSM, and has a reticle showing where the coordinates are. Abductive (reasoning) 22:41, 10 May 2021 (UTC)

Growth Newsletter #18
Welcome to the eighteenth newsletter from the Growth team!
The Growth team's objective is to work on software changes that help retain new contributors in mid-size Wikimedia projects.
Structured tasks
"Add a link" is now being tested in production and is nearing release on our four pilot wikis (Arabic, Czech, Vietnamese, and Bengali Wikipedias). We'll be doing final tests this week and next week, and then plan to deploy to the four wikis either during May 24 week, or May 31 week. After two weeks, we will analyze the initial data to identify any problems or trends. We expect that this feature will engage new kinds of newcomers in easy and successful edits. If things are going well after four weeks, we'll progressively deploy it to the wikis with Growth features.
News for mentors
- We are currently working on a Mentor dashboard. This special page aims to help mentors be more proactive and be more successful at their role. The first iteration will include a table that shows an overview of the mentors current mentees, a module with their own settings, and a module that will allow them to store their best replies to their mentees questions.
- We've conducted our quarterly audit on Growth's four pilot wikis to see the activity of mentors. It appears that the vast majority of mentors are active.
Community configuration
We are working on project to allow communities to manage the configuration of the Growth features on their own. In the past, communities have needed to work directly with the Growth team to set up and alter the features. We plan to put this capability in the hands of administrators, through an easy-to-use form, so that the features can be easily tailored to fit the needs of each community. While we developed it initially for Growth features, we think this approach could have uses in other features as well. We'll be trying this on our pilot wikis in the coming weeks, and then we'll bring it to all Growth wikis soon after. We hope you check out the project page and add any of your thoughts to the talk page.
Scaling
- Growth features are now available on 35 wikis. Here is the list of the most recent ones: Romanian Wikipedia, Danish Wikipedia, Thai Wikipedia, Indonesian Wikipedia, Croatian Wikipedia, Albanian Wikipedia, Esperanto Wikipedia, Hindi Wikipedia, Norwegian Bokmål Wikipedia, Japanese Wikipedia, Telugu Wikipedia, Spanish Wikipedia, Simple English Wikipedia, Malay Wikipedia, Tamil Wikipedia, Greek Wikipedia, Catalan Wikipedia.
- A new group of Wikipedias has been defined for the deployment of Growth features. Please contact us if you have questions about the deployment process, or if your community likes to get the features in advance.
- After discussion with the English Wikipedia community, the Growth features will be tested on a small percentage of new accounts. At the moment, registered users can test the features by turning them on in their preferences.

Poor disambiguation
Hi Epic, hope you're well. Schroon Lake (New York), Schroon Lake, New York seem rather poorly disambiguated. Do you have a clearer way of handling this or am I imagining a problem where one doesn't exist? Cheers, Eddie891 Talk Work 17:35, 25 May 2021 (UTC)
- @Eddie891: Glad to hear from you. My suggestion would be to name the lake Schroon Lake (New York lake) and the hamlet Schroon Lake (hamlet), New York. The second format is already in use for places like Carmel (hamlet), New York. Both of these formats will help distinguish the subject while still working with the pipe trick. Epicgenius (talk) 14:41, 26 May 2021 (UTC)
- Cool, and then would you suggest redirecting the previous pages to Schroon, New York? Eddie891 Talk Work 17:23, 26 May 2021 (UTC)
- @Eddie891: Sure, that should work. Epicgenius (talk) 17:26, 26 May 2021 (UTC)
- Thanks, and done. It's always satisfying to find articles that link to the wrong place when resolving these sorts of issues Eddie891 Talk Work 18:09, 26 May 2021 (UTC)
- ... Though I suspect there is some lingering confusion between the town and the hamlet... Eddie891 Talk Work 18:10, 26 May 2021 (UTC)
- Yeah, that may well be the case. The state has a lot of similar place names, I've noticed. Epicgenius (talk) 18:14, 26 May 2021 (UTC)
