Your WikiCup submissions: two FLCRs
Hi OlifanofmrTennant, thanks for participating in the WikiCup. You recently submitted Wikipedia:Featured list candidates/1960 Winter Olympics medal table/archive1 and Wikipedia:Featured list candidates/List of Magnum P.I. (2018 TV series) episodes/archive1 for FLCR points in the WikiCup. Unfortunately, neither of these submissions are currently long enough to qualify for points. I know this can be disappointing. In the future, I'd keep in mind that per Wikipedia:WikiCup/Scoring, high-quality reviews generally contain at least 4-5 pieces or 100 words of substantial feedback, or if that is not possible, a summary paragraph describing how the article already meets the FLC criteria.

Hi OlifanofmrTennant, I've now finished my copy-edit. I think this article needs more work before it is nominated for GA status. I agree with your comment at REQ about the article's fictional biography section being long-winded so I've marked it as {{fancruft}}. I have somewhat reduced the verbiage and fixed the incorrect verb tenses (In Wikipedia, fictional happenings are described in the present tense, not the past tense), but summarising is not generally part of a copy-editor's task. Good luck with the article. Cheers, Baffle☿gab 22:26, 3 February 2025 (UTC)

Favour?
I noticed this file for the same day happen for an image of Twelfth Doctor as the Twelfth Doctor, and the same user who listed the image also listed this file for the same day (albeit not for Doctor Who). The same kind of rationale is used, and you all united together to vote against its deletion, and I am hoping the same support could possibly be shown for the other file I linked that is listed?

WikiCup 2025 March newsletter
The first round of the 2025 WikiCup ended on 26 February. As a reminder, we are no longer disqualifying the lowest-scoring contestants; everyone who competed in round 1 will advance to round 2 unless they have withdrawn or been banned from Wikipedia. Instead, the contestants with the highest round-point totals now receive tournament points at the end of each round. Unlike the round points in the main WikiCup table, which are reset at the end of each round, tournament points are carried over between rounds and can only be earned if a competitor is among the top 16 round-point scorers. This table shows all competitors who have received tournament points so far.
Round 1 was very competitive compared with previous years; two contestants scored more than 1,000 round points, and the top 16 contestants all scored more than 500 round points. The following competitors scored more than 800 round points:
Gog the Mild (submissions) with 1,168 round points, mainly from 4 featured articles and 4 good articles on old military history, in addition to an assortment of GA and FA reviews.
Generalissima (submissions) with 1,095 round points, mainly from 2 FAs, 2 featured lists, 8 GAs, and 16 Did You Know articles mainly on historical topics.
BeanieFan11 (submissions), with 866 round points from 20 GAs, 23 DYKs, and 2 In the News articles primarily about athletes.
Sammi Brie (submissions), with 846 round points from 16 GAs about radio and TV stations, 45 GA reviews, and 3 DYKs.
Hey man im josh (submissions), with 816 round points from 5 FLs about sports and Olympic topics, 46 FL reviews, 3 ITN articles, and a large number of bonus points.
MaranoFan (submissions), with 815 round points primarily from 3 FAs and 1 GA about music, in addition to 9 article reviews.
The full scores for round 1 can be seen here. During this round, contestants have claimed 18 featured articles, 26 featured lists, 1 featured-topic article, 197 good articles, 38 good-topic articles and more than 100 Did You Know articles. In addition, competitors have worked on 23 In the News articles, and they have conducted nearly 550 reviews.
Remember that any content promoted after 26 February but before the start of Round 2 can be claimed in Round 2, which begins on 1 March. 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, feel free to review one of the nominations listed on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews Needed. Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages. Good luck!
