==WikiCup 2010 February newsletter==
[[File:Trophy.png|right]]
Round one is over, and round two has begun! Congratulations to the 64 contestants who have made it through, but well done and thank you to all contestants who took part in our first round. A special well done goes to {{Wikipedia:WikiCup/Participant|Sasata}}, our round one winner (1010 points), and to {{Wikipedia:WikiCup/Participant|Hunter Kahn}} and {{Wikipedia:WikiCup/Participant|TonyTheTiger}}, who were second and third respectively (640 points/605 points). Sasata was awarded the most points for both good articles (300 points) and featured articles (600 points), and TonyTheTiger was awarded the most for featured topics (225 points), while Hunter Kahn claimed the most for good topics (70). {{Wikipedia:WikiCup/Participant|Staxringold}} claimed the most featured lists (240 points) and featured pictures (35 points), {{Wikipedia:WikiCup/Participant|Geschichte}} claimed the most for ''Did you know?'' entries (490 points), {{Wikipedia:WikiCup/Participant|Jujutacular}} claimed the most for featured sounds (70 points) and {{Wikipedia:WikiCup/Participant|Candlewicke}} claimed the most for ''In the news'' entries (40 points). No one claimed a featured portal or valued picture.

Credits awarded after the end of round one but before round two may be claimed in round two, but remember the rule that content must have been worked on in some significant way during 2010 by you for you to claim points. The groups for round two will be placed up shortly, and the submissions' pages will be blanked. This round will continue until 28 April, when the top two users from each group, as well as 16 wildcards, will progress to round three. Please remember to continue to offer reviews at GAC, FAC and all the other pages that require them to prevent any backlogs which could otherwise be caused by the Cup; thank you to all doing this last round, and particularly to those helping at [[Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews]]. As ever, questions are welcome on [[Wikipedia talk:WikiCup]] and the judges are reachable on their talk pages, by email or on IRC.

Good Lord. I barely made it and I will not pass. I have major outside work and am unofficial on a wikibreak until them. Well, not really, because I always manage to find time to improve something or comment at ITN or check an FPC, but my Internet time is rather limited due to outside occurrances. Perhaps a female (*wink*). And I'm going on a 2-week vacation in about 2 weeks, so I wish you the best of luck, and if you need assistance on a GA/ITN/other article, I'll be glad to help out.

== Paddy's Day DYK ==

Yes it's that time of year again. When 20-odd government ministers waste my money flying goodness knows where (including Cowen going to the White House <small>This year he declared he was going there even before he was invited</small>), when the Americans search for Leprechauns, and everyone else gets drunk. I was wondering do you have any ideas for the St. Patrick's Day DYK? —<small>&nbsp;<span style="border:2px solid #000;padding:1px;">&nbsp;[[User:Cargoking|<font style="color:#000080;">'''Cargoking'''</font>]]&nbsp;[[User talk:Cargoking|<font style="color:#f9f9f9;background:#000000;">&nbsp;talk&nbsp;</font>]]</span></small> 23:05, 6 March 2010 (UTC)
:Absolutely none. Otherwise I'd have begun them now. I did far too many last year. I added the section to DYK to encourage others but last time I checked there was nothing... :-(
:I have some ideas I kept from last year but they're very large . What about [[Saint Patrick's Day in Ireland]] like [[Christmas in Ireland]]? And other countries too if anyone knows anything about that. Last year's episode of ''[[The Simpsons]]'' led me to think of [[The Simpsons in Ireland]] (this has been done with the controversial [[EastEnders episodes in Ireland]]). I thought of these when it was too late last year but it depends how many sources actually cover them. If several people could work on them it might be possible... [http://www.irishtimes.com/newspaper/ireland/2010/0303/1224265502564.html this] caught my eye too but I don't know if it is possible... --<font face="serif">[[User: Candlewicke|<span style="color:red">can</span>]][[User:Candlewicke/List of signatories|<span style="color:black">dle</span>]][[WP:ITN/C|&bull;]][[User talk:Candlewicke|<span style="color:green">wicke</span>]]</font> 23:30, 6 March 2010 (UTC)
::Well just anything Irish in general will suffice I think. I have a [[Brian Jennings (journalist)|journalist's]] article under the St. P Day heading by recommendation from a DYK reviewer. [[:File:Patrick Street Cork2.jpg|This]] is scheduled for POTD on the 17th so really, just a blitz of Irish DYKs would be super. —<small>&nbsp;<span style="border:2px solid #000;padding:1px;">&nbsp;[[User:Cargoking|<font style="color:#000080;">'''Cargoking'''</font>]]&nbsp;[[User talk:Cargoking|<font style="color:#f9f9f9;background:#000000;">&nbsp;talk&nbsp;</font>]]</span></small> 10:51, 7 March 2010 (UTC)

Hey Candlewicke - [[Ben Bulben]] still needs quite a bit of work. Are you in any position to buff it up some more now or shall I close the nomination as unsuccessful for the time being and it can be revisited later. If you do want to leave it for a few months, ping me upon renomination and I will be happy to jump in and review again. I think it really needs a good book or three to be buffed up well, and I don't have any books on irish geography (lots on Australia though :) ) [[User:Casliber|Casliber]] ([[User talk:Casliber|talk]] '''·''' [[Special:Contributions/Casliber|contribs]]) 20:29, 11 March 2010 (UTC)

Hi, just a few minor points for you to have a look at on [[Talk:Adrian Crowley/GA1]]. I could probably pass it as it is, but there's no harm in making a few little improvements. If you'd let me know when you're done, I'll go back and pass it!

== Re title ==

Give me a minute. Still laughing. 'Good Friday Disagreement'. Huh! 

I can't think of anything better than what you've got. Maybe someone in DYK will suggest something the two of us are just not getting. Well done with the article by the way.

==WikiCup 2010 March newsletter==
[[File:Trophy.png|right]]
We're half way through round two, and everything is running smoothly. {{Wikipedia:WikiCup/Participant|Hunter Kahn}} leads overall with 650 points this round, and heads pool B. {{Wikipedia:WikiCup/Participant|TonyTheTiger}} currently leads pool C, dubbed the "Group of Death", which has a only a single contestant yet to score this round (the fewest of any group), as well five contestants over 100 points (the most). With a month still to go, as well as 16 wildcard places, everything is still to play for. Anything you worry may not receive the necessary attention before the end of the round (such as outstanding GA or FA nominations) is welcome at [[Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews]], and please remember to continue offering reviews yourself where possible. As always, the judges are available to contact via email, IRC or their talk pages, and general discussion about the Cup is welcome on the [[WT:CUP|WikiCup talk page]].

Although unrelated to the WikiCup, April sees a Good Article Nominations backlog elimination drive, formulated as a friendly competition with small awards, as the Cup is. Several WikiCup contestants and judges have already signed up, but regular reviewers and those who hope to do more reviewing are more than welcome to join at the [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Good articles/GAN backlog elimination drives/April 2010|drive page]]. <small>If you wish to start receiving or stop receiving this newsletter, please feel free to add or remove yourself from [[Wikipedia:WikiCup/Newsletter/Send]].</small> [[User:J Milburn|J Milburn]], [[User:Fox|Fox]], [[User:iMatthew|iMatthew]] and [[User:The ed17|The ed17]]
