And so ends the first round of the competition. Everyone with a positive score moves on to Round 2. With 56 contestants qualifying, each group in Round 2 contains seven contestants, with the two leaders from each group due to qualify for Round 3 as well as the top sixteen remaining contestants.

Our top scorers in Round 1 were:

• L293D, a WikiCup newcomer, led the field with ten good articles on submarines for a total of 357 points.
• Adam Cuerden, a WikiCup veteran, came next with 274 points, mostly from eight featured pictures, restorations of artwork.
• MPJ-DK, a wrestling enthusiast, was in third place with 263 points, garnered from a featured list, five good articles, two DYKs and four GARs.
• Usernameunique came next at 243, with a featured article and a good article, both on ancient helmets.
• Squeamish Ossifrage was in joint fifth place with 224 points, mostly garnered from bringing the 1937 Fox vault fire to featured article status.
• Ed! was also on 224, with an amazing number of good article reviews (56 actually).

These contestants, like all the others, now have to start scoring points again from scratch. Between them, contestants completed reviews on 143 good articles, one hundred more than the number of good articles they claimed for, thus making a substantial dent in the review backlog. Well done all!

Remember that any content promoted after the end of Round 1 but before the start of Round 2 can be claimed in Round 2. Invitations for collaborative writing efforts or any other discussion of potentially interesting work is always welcome on the WikiCup talk page. Remember, if two or more WikiCup competitors have done significant work on an article, all can claim points. 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.

If you want to help out with the WikiCup, please do your bit to keep down the review backlogs! Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. Good luck!

Hi Omni,

I am Ikem JP , Director of social in my community, Abbi in Uzo Uwani that recently got a page in Wikipedia. We have noticed a lot of unnecessary editing by few unauthorized individuals who are oppositions to the town Union government. For the purpose of effective and efficient management of the director, I hereby apply for the above responsibility.

Thanks and best regards. Ikem JP (talk) 06:33, 17 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Ikem JP: please be aware that Wikipedia is edited collaboratively and no one owns articles or other content. Omni Flames (talk) 10:03, 18 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

If WP:OWN didn't exist, articles on North Korea, Cuba, China amd the like would make those countries and other similar ones seem like heaven! — WinnerWolf99 ^talk_{What did I break now?} 03:56, 1 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi!

I am new here and I hope for your support / your willingness to adopt me :-)

My main challenge is thatg I reasearc hed a lot on Karl Marx in Germany (his hometown Trier)and wrote an article which was translated into English, Russian and Mandarin.

These article were all published online at house-of-marx.com. For this reason, I always get deleted because here at Wikipedia, everyone tracks the connection and accuses me of copyright issues.

After I figured that, I contacted the owner of the website in question and got his approval in written (templates from Wiki) that it is fine with him to give my text as creative commons content here.

I contacted the German support team but they told me they are not familiar with the details in the English version so I should better ask s.o. experienced in English to adopt me and help me here.

I am looking forward to your feedback.

Best regards — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lucyinthesky80 (talk • contribs) 19:57, 15 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I was looking through adopters, and saw you have an interest in video games which account for about half my total edits not in my userspace. Would you be willing to adopt me? — WinnerWolf99 ^talk_{What did I break now?} 03:50, 1 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I want to be adopted. I've been editing for a month but I keep making mistakes. I only edit outer space related articles. There is a discussion about me at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents - Wikipedia. When you respond, please {{mention}} me.

This edit request to User:Omni Flames/sagittariusmoretemplates.js has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your request.

Hi! Would it be possible for you to add

/* <nowiki> */ 

to the top and

/* </nowiki> */ 

to the bottom of User:Omni Flames/sagittariusmoretemplates.js? By putting these tags inside of javascript comments, it won't impact the functionality of your script, but it will keep the backend software from transcluding Template:' + key + '. You will know if the tags worked if Special:WhatLinksHere/Template:' + key + ' no longer shows your javascript page. By fixing these, we can keep the number of entries in Special:WantedTemplates to a minimum. Thank you in advance for your help! Plastikspork _―Œ^(talk) 23:41, 16 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

It doesn't look like this user is active. Could an interface editor help? Thanks! Plastikspork _―Œ^(talk) 19:27, 21 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
