Xenoblade Chronicles 3 Review

Hey, there!

My name is Zeke and I have a quick question for you. I noticed that you provided a very detailed and lengthy, in depth GA review for Xenoblade Chronicles 2, which provided enough feedback to allow the page to pass. I was wondering if you had the time available to you to review the Xenoblade Chronicles 3 page and give similar feedback in the same style if I nominated the article for GA status. You don't have to do the review right away, of course, but I would rather wait on a month backlog to get you to review it than getting someone else to do it. Thanks, Zekerocks11 (talk) 23:25, 17 November 2022 (UTC)

Discussion pages

The pages you're looking for are WT:VG and Wikipedia talk:Manual of Style/Video games. You'll have to search archives, most of these are years, if not decades, old consensus. -- ferret (talk) 16:39, 22 December 2022 (UTC)

Maybe tone down the rhetoric such as here. "Admins" didn't decide anything. The infobox rule has been in place since before I even edited regularly. I'm surprised you weren't already aware. Either way, since you've claimed that I specifically "don't want it", I simply reverted a recent IP addition from my watchlist. I don't patrol or regularly remove dates at all. -- ferret (talk) 17:15, 22 December 2022 (UTC)

DYK for Drummer Boy (Justin Bieber song)

On 25 December 2022, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Drummer Boy (Justin Bieber song), which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that critics were confused by Justin Bieber's version of "Drummer Boy", in which he raps about himself and consumer products, which was seen to bastardize the original sentiment? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Drummer Boy (Justin Bieber song). You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Drummer Boy (Justin Bieber song)), 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.

WikiCup 2023 March newsletter

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:

  • Unlimitedlead with 1205 points, a WikiCup newcomer, led the field with two featured articles on historical figures and several featured article candidate reviews.
  • New York (state) Epicgenius was in second place with 789 points; a seasoned WikiCup competitor he specialises in buildings and locations in New York.
  • Germany FrB.TG was in third place with 625 points, garnered from a featured article on a filmmaker which qualified for an impressive number of bonus points.
  • United States TheJoebro64, another WikiCup newcomer, came next with 600 points gained from two featured articles on video games.
  • Byzantine Empire Iazyges was in fifth place with 532 points, from two featured articles on classical history.

The top sixteen contestants at the end of Round 1 had all scored over 300 points; these included Berkelland LunaEatsTuna, Thebiguglyalien, Sammi Brie, New England Trainsandotherthings, England Lee Vilenski, Indonesia Juxlos, Unexpectedlydian, Washington (state) SounderBruce, Wales Kosack, BennyOnTheLoose and Chicago 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! If you wish to start or stop receiving this newsletter, please feel free to add or remove yourself from Wikipedia:WikiCup/Newsletter/Send. Sturmvogel 66 and Cwmhiraeth.

I'm very sorry for my wording mix-up

I meant to say you were short 200 characters, not "words" when reviewing your DYK nom. I'm very sorry about my mistake. You've added more than 200 characters since I brought the matter up, so your Monster Max DYK nom is just fine now. All I'm waiting for now is for you to submit revised ALTs for review. Thank you very much for your hard work and, again, I aplogize for the confusion I caused. —CurryTime7-24 (talk) 18:11, 8 March 2023 (UTC)

CurryTime7-24 Thank you for the clarification! I have responded. User:HumanxAnthro (BanjoxKazooie) 18:29, 8 March 2023 (UTC)
