Request to withdraw
editI'd like to withdraw my participation from the DCWC, as I don't think that I'll have time to focus on content for the contest. Thanks. – Hilst [talk] 17:17, 11 July 2024 (UTC)
Done. Sorry to see you go, Hilst! Please let me know if you'd also like to opt out of contest updates and I'll take you off the mailing list. —TechnoSquirrel69 (sigh) 19:04, 11 July 2024 (UTC)

Question
editJust asking, if you make an article a GA, and then you make it FA, do you get both 35 and 200 points, or you get only 200 points? 🍗TheNuggeteer🍗 03:01, 22 July 2024 (UTC)
- yes, you get both! it would be pretty impressive to get an article through both processes within 3 months haha. ... sawyer * he/they * talk 05:11, 22 July 2024 (UTC)
Would people be interested in joining a wikiproject on improving and creating articles about oral tradition? Wikipedia's coverage on this appears to be very poor Kowal2701 (talk) 19:22, 23 July 2024 (UTC)
- personally i've got a lot on my plate both wikipedia-wise and in real life, but you've certainly got my moral support! :) ... sawyer * he/they * talk 06:07, 24 July 2024 (UTC)
Second-level country article question
editDoes, for example, the Flag of North Korea count as a "second-level country article"? "Flag of ..." is not listed in Wikipedia:Sample country outline, but all countries' outlines list their respective flags. Yue🌙 01:51, 5 August 2024 (UTC)
- We had a brief discussion about flag articles with another participant recently; the short answer is no, primarily because it is not typical for flags to receive a dedicated section in the main article about their countries, and vexillology articles clearly do not have the same significance as, say, Culture of... or Economy of... articles. —TechnoSquirrel69 (sigh) 06:13, 5 August 2024 (UTC)
- @TechnoSquirrel69: Got it, thank you! Yue🌙 20:08, 5 August 2024 (UTC)
