WikiCup 2024 August newsletter

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.

How to make this page visible on the web search results --TFonseka (talk) 11:38, 30 August 2024 (UTC)

Hey @TFonseka,

You should use the WP:AFC process for submitting your article, however as of now, you haven't demonstrated that the subject is notable and therefore should have a Wikipedia article. Please do so by providing reliable sources that indicate the subject is notable.

Thanks, Zippybonzo | talk | contribs (they/them) 11:45, 30 August 2024 (UTC)

Question from Cal-batman (21:51, 30 August 2024)

Hi Zippybonzo. I've been asked to work on creating a Wikipedia page for my company. We don't have a page on Wikipedia currently, although drafts have been submitted previously. I think normally I would submit a page via the Articles for Creation feature and make the appropriate conflict of interest disclosure. But given there is an existing draft, should I modify the existing draft? If so, how would I disclose the conflict of interest? And if I use the Articles for Creation feature to create a "new" page, what would happen to the existing draft? Could it be removed? I'd appreciate your guidance as I want to make sure I do this properly. Thanks. --Cal-batman (talk) 21:51, 30 August 2024 (UTC)
