WikiCup 2013 January newsletter

Signups are now closed; we have our final 127 contestants for this year's competition. 64 contestants will make it to the next round at the end of February, but we're already seeing strong scoring compared to previous years. Sturmvogel_66 (submissions) currently leads, with 358 points. At this stage in 2012, the leader ( Grapple X (submissions)) had 342 points, while in 2011, the leader had 228 points. We also have a large number of scorers when compared with this stage in previous years. 12george1 (submissions) was the first competitor to score this year, as he was last year, with a detailed good article review. Some other firsts:

• 12george1 (submissions) was also the first to score for an article, with the good article Hurricane Gordon (2000). Again, this is a repeat of last year!
• Buggie111 (submissions) was the first to score for a did you know, with Marquis Flowers.
• Spencer (submissions) was the first to score for an in the news, with 2013 Houphouët-Boigny stampede.
• Status (submissions) was the first to score for a featured list, with list of Billboard Social 50 number-one artists.
• Adam Cuerden (submissions) was the first to score for a featured picture, with File:Thure de Thulstrup - L. Prang and Co. - Battle of Gettysburg - Restoration by Adam Cuerden.jpg.

Featured articles, portals and topics, as well as good topics, are yet to feature in the competition.

This year, the bonus points system has been reworked, with bonus points on offer for old articles prepared for did you know, and "multiplier" points reworked to become more linear. For details, please see Wikipedia:WikiCup/Scoring. There have been some teething problems as the bot has worked its way around the new system, but issues should mostly be ironed out- please report any problems to the WikiCup talk page. Here are some participants worthy of note with regards to the bonus points:

• Ed! (submissions) was the first to score bonus points, with Portland-class cruiser, a good article.
• Hawkeye7 (submissions) has the highest overall bonus points, as well as the highest scoring article, thanks to his work on Enrico Fermi, now a good article. The biography of such a significant figure to the history of science warrants nearly five times the normal score.
• HueSatLum (submissions) claimed bonus points for René Vautier and Nicolas de Fer, articles that did not exist on the English Wikipedia at the start of the year; a first for the WikiCup. The articles were eligible for bonus points because of fact they were both covered on a number of other Wikipedias.

Also, a quick mention of The C of E (submissions), who may well have already written the oddest article of the WikiCup this year: did you know that the Fucking mayor objected to Fucking Hell on the grounds that there was no Fucking brewery? The gauntlet has been thrown down; can anyone beat it?

If you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is at good article candidates, a featured process, or anywhere else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews. Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. Good luck!

Sort of like a talkback

Status,

Could you take a look at my comments to Krusty on my talk page at User talk:Floquenbeam#Re: Please dial it back a notch? It affects you too. In particular, I want to make very clear what each of you are saying. You're saying you did not send him any email whatsoever, right? I'm not looking for an argument between you two on my talk page, so it might be better to answer here (or by email). --Floquenbeam (talk) 23:31, 3 February 2013 (UTC)

Checkuser for the email is a good idea. I'm beside myself in these "harassing email" claims, and it's getting rather annoying, and quite frankly, is quite an attack on me in a whole new level.  — Statυs (talk, contribs) 23:51, 3 February 2013 (UTC)

Have you sent anyone an email in the last few days? Evidently CU can't tell who the recipient is, only whether an account sent one or not. If you sent one to someone else, CU can't be used to prove anything one way or the other. --Floquenbeam (talk) 23:53, 3 February 2013 (UTC)

I actually rarely send out emails, I would say my last one was a few months ago.  — Statυs (talk, contribs) 23:54, 3 February 2013 (UTC)

OK, thank you. I'll see what transpires here... --Floquenbeam (talk) 23:56, 3 February 2013 (UTC)

I just checked my inbox (as I remembered the user I had emailed) and the last email I sent out using the Wikipedia interface was on December 4.  — Statυs (talk, contribs) 00:01, 4 February 2013 (UTC)

I must add his recollection of the story is quite exaggerated, for example, I never added any sources for the song and I never said anything like "I've just found this reference".  — Statυs (talk, contribs) 00:08, 4 February 2013 (UTC)

If it helps, I'm pretty confident I know what is happening here. --Floquenbeam (talk) 00:22, 4 February 2013 (UTC)

Would you mind letting me know? (LOL) Here, or via email, whichever.  — Statυs (talk, contribs) 00:23, 4 February 2013 (UTC)

Oh, I thought I was gonna be hearing some big Illuminati-like conspiracy theory (LOL).  — Statυs (talk, contribs) 00:28, 4 February 2013 (UTC)

In case there ever comes a time when you need to publicly clarify what happened here, you can point them to this comment. The claim that you sent a harassing email to Krusty111 is false, and he has been indef blocked for that false accusation. --Floquenbeam (talk) 21:08, 4 February 2013 (UTC)

Alright, thank you very much for finally getting this all cleared up.  — Statυs (talk, contribs) 21:58, 4 February 2013 (UTC)

"Today Was a Fairytale" Cover

Hello. I'm really sorry about the artwork thing. I had no idea they re-released it because it doesn't say it in the article. Also... Shouldn't there be an "Alternate cover" tab at the bottom of the template with the other cover? It makes more sense to me. Thanks for your time. Sorry about the confusion. ---Tsu'tey♫ (talk) 21:38, 4 February 2013 (UTC)

It's alright. Well, yes, you could add that also if you'd like, as it the one that is really used if you buy the single now.  — Statυs (talk, contribs) 21:57, 4 February 2013 (UTC)

Alright, thank you. I'm really sorry about the confusion. I kind of assumed you were wrong simply because of the fact that I didn't look far enough into my research. I didn't bother to think about the possibility of a re-release or anything like that. Sorry again. ---Tsu'tey♫ (talk) 22:52, 4 February 2013 (UTC)

Re: Super Bowl halftime shows

I do think an infobox might prove to be helpful. Like I said, I might not create stubs for every halftime show, but I image many performances are worthy of separate articles, especially the most recent ones. I have no experience creating infoboxes, but I love the idea. Let me know if you need assistance! --Another Believer _(Talk) 22:42, 4 February 2013 (UTC)

Alright, I will get on it! Shouldn't be very difficult to do, basically just adjust the current Infobox concert to meet what is needed for this type of infobox. What would you say the fields should be? Obviously, performer, date, venue, etc., but what additionally?  — Statυs (talk, contribs) 22:45, 4 February 2013 (UTC)

I'd say date, venue, headliner, special guests, set list?, producer, director. A way to link to the Super Bowl [x number]? Good starting point. Oh, and image. --Another Believer _(Talk) 22:55, 4 February 2013 (UTC)

Looks great! --Another Believer _(Talk) 22:58, 4 February 2013 (UTC)

Let me know if there is anything else that needs to be added.  — Statυs (talk, contribs) 23:06, 4 February 2013 (UTC)

Krusty111

Let me know if you have any more trouble. I figured out his IP range, and have put up some more effective blocks.—Kww(talk) 01:02, 5 February 2013 (UTC)

Alright, I will. Thank you very much!  — Statυs (talk, contribs) 01:03, 5 February 2013 (UTC)

Rowheader

I screwed up by putting "rowheader=yes" instead of "rowheader=true". Was the guideline you were complaining about asking for consistency, or do you think row headers are against guidelines for some reason?—Kww(talk) 03:54, 6 February 2013 (UTC)

Oh, for the rowspans I was just removing the few that were there for consistency. I meant to say guide and not guideline, my mistake, and was referring to MOS:ALBUM (charts and certifications are to be separate, I don't understand why they are combined so often when they aren't even close to being the same thing).  — Statυs (talk, contribs) 04:13, 6 February 2013 (UTC)

Consistently back now. "rowheader=true" in singlechart forces a row header, so they are all on, now.—Kww(talk) 04:30, 6 February 2013 (UTC)

Great!  — Statυs (talk, contribs) 04:35, 6 February 2013 (UTC)

DYK for Alive (Jennifer Lopez song)

Casliber (talk · contribs) 08:03, 6 February 2013 (UTC)

Want to be a guinea pig?

While working my way through the last Billboard change, I figured that a couple of templates to help discography editors could be useful. {{BillboardChartNum|chart name}} will return the integer number associated with that BillboardChart, and {{BillboardURLbyName}} will return a URL for that chart for that artist, i.e. {{BillboardURLbyName|artist=Shakira|chart=Hot 100}} will generate https://www.billboard.com/artist/shakira/chart-history/hot-100. The chart name mapping is documented at {{BillboardChartNum}}.

There's no fancy ref formatting or anything: just the raw URL. That way there shouldn't be any arguments about appearance to keep people from using them, and I can get them all to autoupdate the next time Billboard changes everything.—Kww(talk) 02:22, 7 February 2013 (UTC)

Great! So, would you like me to start applying these to articles?  — Statυs (talk, contribs) 03:17, 7 February 2013 (UTC)

Yes. Just let me know when you hit trouble so that I can fix it.—Kww(talk) 03:19, 7 February 2013 (UTC)

Alright, so, unlike the other templates, like SinglesChart, you still have to manually format the reference? And just include this coding under URL?  — Statυs (talk, contribs) 03:23, 7 February 2013 (UTC)

Nevermind, I got it. I'll start bulk changing over the weekend.  — Statυs (talk, contribs) 03:40, 7 February 2013 (UTC)

Question

Does this link work for you? It's just blank for me, no text. I'm trying to access it for "Sing for Me (Christina Aguilera song)"  — AARON • ^TALK 18:12, 8 February 2013 (UTC)

It just directs to the main "news" page. Damn Billboard. They could have at least set it so old links would redirect to the new ones.  — Statυs (talk, contribs) 02:46, 9 February 2013 (UTC)

FFS, guess I can't use it now.  — AARON • ^TALK 11:24, 9 February 2013 (UTC)

Was it this article?  — Statυs (talk, contribs) 17:13, 9 February 2013 (UTC)

I don't know, it's just symbols and a magazine front cover.  — AARON • ^TALK 17:53, 9 February 2013 (UTC)

Check page 2, it appears for me.  — Statυs (talk, contribs) 17:54, 9 February 2013 (UTC)

Yeah that one works. Thanks. Billboard is still fucked up for me.  — AARON • ^TALK 18:01, 9 February 2013 (UTC)

Yeah, I hadn't actually noticed any problems with it until that article. Very strange.  — Statυs (talk, contribs) 18:03, 9 February 2013 (UTC)

As in the entire website is just symbols, I can't look at any chart. There are no English words anywhere.  — AARON • ^TALK 18:06, 9 February 2013 (UTC)

Do you think you could show me a screencapture?  — Statυs (talk, contribs) 18:09, 9 February 2013 (UTC)

How?  — AARON • ^TALK 18:10, 9 February 2013 (UTC)

I use this program. With the desktop version, whenever you go to print screen something, it comes up with a little crop box and the ability to edit it and upload it quickly to the web. I find it very useful.  — Statυs (talk, contribs) 18:13, 9 February 2013 (UTC)

Here.  — AARON • ^TALK 18:16, 9 February 2013 (UTC)

HOLY SHIT! That is INSANE! WTF! This is what I see.  — Statυs (talk, contribs) 18:20, 9 February 2013 (UTC)

Yeah I wish mine was like that. I don't know why they redesigned it, it was perfect before.  — AARON • ^TALK 18:34, 9 February 2013 (UTC)

WTF is happening with your Billboard Aaron, LOL :) !? — Tomíca^(T2ME) 18:42, 9 February 2013 (UTC)

I thought yours was the same?  — AARON • ^TALK 18:44, 9 February 2013 (UTC)

Lol No, we misunderstood, I hate the new design, but I see Billboard web same as Status'. :/ — Tomíca^(T2ME) 18:46, 9 February 2013 (UTC)

Wish I did too. Nothing was wrong with the other one.  — AARON • ^TALK 18:47, 9 February 2013 (UTC)

Have you tried viewing it from another browser? Which browser do you use? — Tomíca^(T2ME) 18:48, 9 February 2013 (UTC)

That's probably it. It works fine in Google Chrome.  — Statυs (talk, contribs) 18:52, 9 February 2013 (UTC)

Yep, it's Safari. I'll have to start using Chrome now.  — AARON • ^TALK 18:57, 9 February 2013 (UTC)

In the Zone

Hello. The genre of "In the Zone" should also include hip-hop. The quotes from the reviews from The Guardian and Slant Magazine on the page also list that as a genre and they are already sourced and can be used as a reference for this. User5482 11:20, 8 February 2013 (UTC)

A "hip hop style" is not a genre.  — Statυs (talk, contribs) 04:30, 9 February 2013 (UTC)

It's listed as one of the genres in many of the sourced reviews, it's also in AllMusic and About. How else can a genre be sourced if it's not taken from professional reviews? User5482 11:30, 8 February 2013 (UTC)

You're gonna have to provide a source that specifically calls the album of the hip hop genre. All I can see in the article now is that it is in hip hop style, and style is not a genre.  — Statυs (talk, contribs) 17:12, 9 February 2013 (UTC)

Redirects

Hello! On 23 January, you reverted Overrated (Ashley Tisdale song) to a 2010 revision, in which it redirected to Guilty Pleasure (album). That article was moved to Guilty Pleasure (Ashley Tisdale album) in November 2011, with the old title becoming a redirect to Guilty pleasure (disambiguation). So your reversion created a double redirect, which a bot repaired by redirecting to the disambiguation page (instead of the intended album article).
When creating a redirect (either from scratch or by restoring an earlier revision), please ensure that its target is correct. Thank you! —David Levy 06:53, 15 February 2013 (UTC)

Also, note that when you updated the since-deleted "Overrated" disambiguation page minutes later, you replaced the Overrated (Ashley Tisdale song) link with one to the non-disambiguated Guilty Pleasure (another redirect to Guilty pleasure (disambiguation)). —David Levy 07:02, 15 February 2013 (UTC)

An old move

Could you explain why you moved Shout In the Rainbow!! to "Shout in the Rainbow"? You removed the capitalization from "In" and then omitted the two exclamation points (seemingly because it's on the title blacklist).—Ryulong (琉竜) 20:29, 15 February 2013 (UTC)

Very old move. Well, "in" shouldn't have been in caps and then yeah, it was on the blacklist. It appears it's been fixed now. Status 23:49, 15 February 2013 (UTC)

The Truth About Love Tour Setlist

Hi, I'm sorry about the confusion we had earlier over the setlist for P!nk's The Truth About Love Tour. I just wanted to say that I know some info came from forums, but Rolling Stone magazine and P!nk's official forums are both reliable sources, are they not? Plus, several sources have stated "Trouble" is part of the setlist. ---Tsu'tey♫ (talk) 01:18, 18 February 2013 (UTC)

Found a better source (that includes the setlist in a full list) and added it to the article. Status 01:23, 18 February 2013 (UTC)

Thank you. I appreciate that, and I'm sorry for the confusion. What about the other three songs mentioned? Rolling Stone specifically stated P!nk included "True Love" in one of her shows. I think at least that one should be included somewhere in the article. The other two, I can see why they wouldn't be included in it, because the sources I had for them were forums, but... I think we should mention that P!nk included "True Love" in the setlist. If we keep having problems, we'll just leave it as it is now, and I can update it next month because I will be attending one of the concerts for this tour, so.... But again, sorry about the confusion. Thanks for finding a better source. ---Tsu'tey♫ (talk) 02:27, 18 February 2013 (UTC)

Recent Discussion

I apologise if you think I was calling you desperate. I meant that random search of sources to try and justify "Good Hit" was a promotional single was desperate. Its been taken out of context. But on a separate note, what's happened around here? Legolass got done for faking references, several others got in trouble for socking. Everyone seems really short all the time. — Lil_℧niquℇ №1 ^[talk] 17:57, 20 February 2013 (UTC)

Yeah, I apologize if I made it sound like I took it that way. I meant to say that me trying to find additional sources, not simply me. I was in the midst of writing an essay for English, so I wasn't completely here, if you know what I mean. I'll just let any other person who wants to state their business.

You duplicated a file that's been there for over 5 years, and now we need to go through through the deletion process to get one of them removed. Granted, it won't be too hard... But next time, just overwrite the existing file. Tom™_(2¢) 17:43, 27 February 2013 (UTC)
