== ''This Month in GLAM'': November 2024 ==
==1612 in Ireland==
This is the note I have added to the ] discussion page:
:This deletion is a bit quick off the mark and fails to take any notice of context, particularly my trying to add birth and death entries to Years in Ireland. I am adding content to all the Years in Ireland articles as I find it and will be adding more to this, as I will to other such articles. It also allows others to add content in the collaborative way that is supposed to be Wiki - deletion this speedy allows no opportunity for this. Please have a modicum of patience - this speedy deletion approach is a very bad policy when applied in this way. NB this is not the same as ] itself. ] (]) 15:21, 27 December 2007 (UTC)

== Welcome to the 2025 WikiCup! ==
Hi there ,
You tagged an article I was construction for deleation. I left an explanation notice about it on the talk page. It is relevant to the topic of fashion and cinema for the fashion house of Pucci. It also provides valuable information to several other articles on Wiki. I think it should stay.


Happy New Year and Happy New WikiCup! The 2025 competition has just begun and all article creators, expanders, improvers and reviewers are welcome to take part. Even if you are a novice editor, we hope the WikiCup will give you a chance to improve your editing skills as you go. If you have already signed up, your submissions page can be found ''']'''. If you have not yet signed up, you can ''']''' and the judges will set up your submissions page ready for you to take part. Any questions on the scoring, rules or anything else should be directed to one of the judges, or posted to the ].
Thanks and Happy New Year,


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.
] (]) 21:14, 27 December 2007 (UTC)


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}}.

About me

Hi there. I've been a sysop here since 2008, and was an oversighter between 2012 and 2019. Most of my substantial edits have been to articles relating to popular culture, which is a fancy way of saying "games, sports and music". More recently I tend to do stuff like adding references to biographies of living persons.

I follow the football teams of my hometown and my country (for my sins). I've lived in the San Francisco Bay Area since 2016.

You can get in touch with me by clicking here, hitting the "new section" or "+" tab in the menubar to the top of this page. If your request requires privacy, please feel free to find me on IRC (as "foks"), or get me via email (if you have an account).

I work for or provide services to the Wikimedia Foundation (as JSutherland (WMF)), but this is my personal account. Edits, statements, or other contributions made from this account are my own, and may not reflect the views of the Foundation.
