For the 2025 WikiCup, we've implemented ] to the scoring system. The highest-ranking contestants will now receive ] at the end of each round, and final rankings are decided by the number of tournament points each contestant has. If you're busy and can't sign up in January, don't worry: Signups are now open throughout the year. To make things fairer for latecomers, the lowest-scoring contestants will no longer be eliminated at the end of each round.

The first round will end on 26 February. The judges for the WikiCup this year are: {{User4|Cwmhiraeth}}, {{User4|Epicgenius}}, {{User4|Frostly}}, {{User4|Guerillero}} and {{User4|Lee Vilenski}}.

Revision as of 00:46, 8 January 2025


  • If I leave a message for you: Please respond on your talk page. I'll probably add it to my watchlist, but if I miss something, feel free to leave a talkback.

  • If you leave a message for me: I will most likely respond here. Either add this page to your watchlist or ask me to notify you of a response on your talk page.

  • Note: I reserve the right to decline or withdraw from a situation that is escalating or uncomfortable, without giving a reason, or to take further action through permissable means. (See this policy.)

  • If I mistakenly called your edits as vandalism when I reverted them, it was probably because you did not leave an edit summary. Please realize that, in many cases, unexplained edits are indistinguishable from vandalism! This also applies to Rollbacks.

  • If you're here to troll, harass, or vandalise, I might not be able to stop you, but you will be reverted...and beware the giant dice.

Autopatrolled

Hey Bushranger, have you ever thought about giving yourself the autopatrolled userright? It seems you know your way around content, so I don't see the point of sending all your pages to NPP... Toadspike 22:51, 5 January 2025 (UTC)

Huh. Apparently 'Autopatrolled' isn't part of the administrator system - I'd thought it was (looking at my user rights log, I *had* it before becoming an admin). Given WP:AUTOPATROLLED states Administrators may also assign the right to themselves I've done so - thanks for poking me to notice this. - The Bushranger One ping only 22:56, 5 January 2025 (UTC)
I think it used to be part of admin rights, but they overhauled Autopatrolled a few years back, and tightened the requirements to be an NPP. I used to have it (not an admin), but I lost it under the new rules. I don't want to jump through the new hoops, so I've gone without NPP for several years now.

  • Never mind. I'm still an autopatroller, but not an NPP. I got mixed up. Facepalm Facepalm BilCat (talk) 23:23, 5 January 2025 (UTC)
    Autopatrolled was removed from the admin bundle a little over three years ago, with the message that admins were free to re-add it for themselves. I did so for a while, but have since decided that my average of one new article a month does not place much of a burden on NPP, and there may be a benefit having someone else confirm I didn't mess up.

Hello! There is a disruptive editor.
