Welcome to the 2021 WikiCup!

Happy New Year and Happy New WikiCup! The competition begins today and all article creators, expanders, improvers and reviewers are welcome to take part. If you have already signed up, your submissions page can be found here. If you have not yet signed up, you can add your name here and the judges will set up your submissions page. Any questions on the rules or on anything else should be directed to one of the judges, or posted to the WikiCup talk page. Signups will close at the end of January, and the first round will end on 26 February; the 64 highest scorers at that time will move on to round 2. We thank Vanamonde93 and Godot13, who have retired as judges, and we thank them for their past dedication. The judges for the WikiCup this year are Sturmvogel 66 (talk · contribs · email) and Cwmhiraeth (talk · contribs · email). Good luck! MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 11:11, 1 January 2021 (UTC)

Organized labour project

Thank you for earlier joining the Organized Labour project. I've been a participant in the project since 2006 and am helping with a revival of it. As part this we are introducing a new membership system, which will help with communications among participants. This involves creating a membership file for each participant within your user space (you can see an example of my membership card here: User:Goldsztajn/WikiProjectCards/WikiProject Organized Labour). This system is already in operation within a number of wikiprojects (such as Women in Red and Medicine). You will not have to do anything, myself or someone else from the project will create the relevant file within your userspace. However, I am conscious that it is not polite to change an editor's userspace without notice. If I don't hear from you in the negative, I will go ahead with making the change after the 18th of January. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me. Many thanks for supporting the project, in solidarity, --Goldsztajn (talk) 20:25, 12 January 2021 (UTC)

Hi Goldsztajn! I created User:Soman/WikiProjectCards/WikiProject Organized Labour. Ok to add directly in the membership list? --Soman (talk) 14:36, 17 January 2021 (UTC)
Hej hej Soman! No need to do anything more, once the card is created it automatically populates in the new membership list: Wikipedia:WikiProject_Organized_Labour/Members. I've added your original date of joining the project to the card. Hopefully we can move things forward more consistently with the project in 2021.... perhaps a Bengal-oriented trade union drive? :) I hope to complete the transition by the end of the month and send out a request for new inputs, ideas in February. In solidarity, --Goldsztajn (talk) 20:40, 17 January 2021 (UTC)
