WikiCup 2023 September newsletter
[edit]The fourth round of the competition has finished, with anyone scoring less than 673 points being eliminated. It was a high scoring round with all but one of the contestants who progressed to the final having achieved an FA during the round. The highest scorers were
Epicgenius, with 2173 points topping the scores, gained mainly from a featured article, 38 good articles and 9 DYKs. He was followed by
Sammi Brie, with 1575 points, gained mainly from a featured article, 28 good articles and 50 good article reviews. Close behind was
Thebiguglyalien, with 1535 points mainly gained from a featured article, 15 good articles, 26 good article reviews and lots of bonus points.
Between them during round 4, contestants achieved 12 featured articles, 3 featured lists, 3 featured pictures, 126 good articles, 46 DYK entries, 14 ITN entries, 67 featured article candidate reviews and 147 good article reviews. Congratulations to our eight finalists and all who participated! It was a generally high-scoring and productive round and I think we can expect a highly competitive finish to the competition.
Remember that any content promoted after the end of round 4 but before the start of round 5 can be claimed in round 5. Remember too that you must claim your points within 10 days of "earning" them and within 24 hours of the end of the final. If you are concerned that your nomination will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews. It would be helpful if this list could be cleared of any items no longer relevant. 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. If you wish to start or stop receiving this newsletter, please feel free to add or remove your name from Wikipedia:WikiCup/Newsletter/Send.
I will be standing down as a judge after the end of the contest. I think the Cup encourages productive editors to improve their contributions to Wikipedia and I hope that someone else will step up to take over the running of the Cup. Sturmvogel 66 (talk), and Cwmhiraeth (talk)
Deletion about TANZIR AHMMED
[edit]I respectfully oppose deletion of this article.
Tanzir Ahmmed is a notable Bangladeshi marine engineer and businessman, with verifiable participation in professional institutions:
- He appears in the official Mariners Group website’s **List of Directors**, listed as “Director. MG‑142. BMA‑57th Batch…” 1. - He holds a valid Engineer’s Certification (CDC‑C/O/12188), as shown in the Bangladesh Government’s GPA-licensed ERP portal 2.
These are **independent, reliable sources** (a corporate organizational profile and a government-operated certification database). They establish his role and credibility in the marine engineering sector. Based on these verifiable references, the subject clearly meets Wikipedia’s **notability criteria for professionals**.
I am also actively working to improve the article by adding neutral, verifiable details—such as his education and roles—while enhancing formatting and citations.
I request that this article be **retained and expanded**, rather than deleted.

AFD close
[edit]Hello. I noticed you closed an AFD that the nominator withdrew. Could you also close [[1]] for me for the same reason as I don't know how? Anxioustoavoid (talk) 23:26, 26 July 2025 (UTC)
- Thanks for the message but it looks like Svartner has beaten me to closing it. Spiderone(Talk to Spider) 07:34, 27 July 2025 (UTC)
- Thanks anyway. Anxioustoavoid (talk) 10:55, 27 July 2025 (UTC)

Speedy deletions of drafts
[edit]Not a huge deal and I deleted the draft anyway since it was blatantly an advert, but honestly there's not too much point going out of your way to tag drafts for G11 when they've been unedited for months - drafts automatically get nominated for G13 deletion after 6 months anyway.

- Apologies for the unnecessary work, I'll try to be more attentive of the creation dates. Spiderone(Talk to Spider) 10:11, 16 August 2025 (UTC)
The Broncos Salute page declined
[edit]Hello, I received a message W15 message. The note seems to imply it’s a bot account? Can you help me with this? RichieJCook (talk) 00:16, 17 August 2025 (UTC)
- The article is clearly written by ChatGPT. This is clear to see from the placeholders. Spiderone(Talk to Spider) 12:55, 17 August 2025 (UTC)
- yes, I used it to help me write the page in a neutral tone and to follow all of Wikipedia’s guidelines. I didn’t realize this wasn’t allowed. Should I completely re-write it? Where should I go from here? 69.21.96.65 (talk) 03:35, 18 August 2025 (UTC)
- You need to write it completely from your own words. You may start a new draft. Spiderone(Talk to Spider) 17:05, 18 August 2025 (UTC)
- Thank, I will do that! Sorry, I was just using it as a tool, didn’t think of the implications. I’ll re-write myself!
- additionally, I received a message saying my IP address was blocked? Are you able to tell me what this is about? RichieJCook (talk) 19:08, 18 August 2025 (UTC)
- I have no idea, sorry. Spiderone(Talk to Spider) 17:04, 19 August 2025 (UTC)
