	I am looking for a journal article, which seems like it would be German, but I don't know the name of it in German. The article was written by Varia Kipiani, probably in 1905 or 1906. newspaper article reported in 1907 that Kipiani's article appeared in the ''Walbaum Zentralblatt für Gynäkologie''. World cat shows only "L'ergographie du sucre" (1905) but the description and of that French article seems to be a discussion of the sugar crash, and not a comparison of cane sugar and fructose. After your detective work on Foote, I wondered if you might be able to assist me in finding this. If you are too busy, or uninterested, no worries. ] (]) 22:20, 3 November 2022 (UTC)

			== Books & Bytes – Issue 66 ==
	:@], I am pretty busy but I really like doing this kind of research, so I went right ahead. The title is "Der Kraftwert des Zuckers", and makes it look likely that it is on page 674 of Zentralblatt für Gynäkologie, Volume 30, Part 1 (1906). Searching through German library catalogues makes me think this volume hasn't been digitised yet, so you probably need to ask at ] if you want a copy (it is reasonably widely available, for example in the Bavarian State library in Munich: ). If you manage to get hold of it and need help reading/translating, just let me know. (I haven't yet managed to figure out what "Walbaum" is in this context, but it is easier to find without that bit). —] (]) 23:01, 3 November 2022 (UTC)

	::Nope, I'm wrong. I think the thing in ''Zentralblatt für Gynäkologie'' is also only a review/short form, and not written by Kipiani (but that may be helpful as a somewhat secondary source). Looking at , the original seems to have appeared (probably under its French title?? in "Ann . de la soc . roy . des sciences méd . et nat . de Bruxelles Bd . XIV . Hft . 1.", so ''Annales de la société royale des sciences médicales et naturelles de Bruxelles'', vol. 14, issue 1. Let me know if you get anywhere with this information, I'm curious to hear more. —] (]) 23:24, 3 November 2022 (UTC)
	::Thank you so much, I really appreciate the help. Let me see if there is any avenue for me to obtain. Probably RE, unless I can find anything at archive.org or Hathitrust or figure out the Belgian archives, which so far have eluded me. I am happy to know that you enjoy the hunt, it's my favorite part too. I'm sure I'll be back asking questions as my knowledge of German is that I can count to 100. If I find something, I'm happy to let you know. ] (]) 13:55, 4 November 2022 (UTC)
	:::Okay, well that was too easy. The google link says snippet view, but it isn't. If you click on it, it is full access.

	First, hi! I wanted to say thanks so much for taking on the article, it's been a pet project of mine for a while.

Welcome to the 2025 WikiCup!

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 here. If you have not yet signed up, you can add your name here 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 WikiCup talk page.

For the 2025 WikiCup, we've implemented several changes to the scoring system. The highest-ranking contestants will now receive tournament points 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.

The first round will end on 26 February. The judges for the WikiCup this year are: Cwmhiraeth (talk · contribs · email), Epicgenius (talk · contribs · email), Frostly (talk · contribs · email), Guerillero (talk · contribs · email) and Lee Vilenski (talk · contribs · email).

Guideline and policy news

Following an RFC, Misplaced Pages:Notability (species) was adopted as a subject-specific notability guideline.
A request for comment is open to discuss whether admins should be advised to warn users rather than issue no-warning blocks to those who have posted promotional content outside of article space.

Technical news

The Nuke feature also now provides links to the userpage of the user whose pages were deleted, and to the pages which were not selected for deletion, after page deletions are queued. This enables easier follow-up admin-actions.

Arbitration

Following the 2024 Arbitration Committee elections, the following editors have been elected to the Arbitration Committee: CaptainEek, Daniel, Elli, KrakatoaKatie, Liz, Primefac, ScottishFinnishRadish, Theleekycauldron, Worm That Turned.

Miscellaneous

A New Pages Patrol backlog drive is happening in January 2025 to reduce the number of unreviewed articles and redirects in the new pages feed. Sign up here to participate!

File:Einsmann.jpg

Hi Kusma. Given the likely date File:Einsmann.jpg was taken, there's a good chance it's already within the public domain per c:COM:Germany even though the source website is claiming it's copyrighted. It seems fine licensed as non-free, but you might want to ask about it at c:COM:VPC to see whether it's OK to relicense and OK for Commons to host. -- Marchjuly (talk) 06:40, 15 January 2025 (UTC)

@Marchjuly, if it was "published" in 1931 or 1932 it is indeed anonymous it is PD in Germany, but per c:Commons:Hirtle chart I am not sure it is PD in the United States (it may have not been PD in Germany in 1996). There are various definitely published anonymous photographs of the person in 1931/32 newspapers, but again, these seem to be PD in Germany but not in the US. —Kusma (talk) 08:48, 15 January 2025 (UTC)

Please understand I wasn't stating the uploading the file as non-free was wrong; just mentioning the possibility of the image being within the public domain. If the photo was published in 1931/1932, it could enter into the public domain as early as January 1, 1927, even with URAA renewal, under US copyrght law, right? If that's the case, you could add {{Non-free in US}} or {{Not-PD-US-URAA}} to the file's page to make that known. I believe dojgn so adds the file to a category of similar files, and other work of that category to review files after the date they're expected to become PD in the US. -- Marchjuly (talk) 01:00, 20 January 2025 (UTC)

I believe now that some of the newspaper photographs will be PD on 2027-01-01, but I don't have enough information (yet) about the one I uploaded to be sure, especially I don't know whether it was indeed anonymous. I'd be happy to prove the file free but I don't think we're there yet. Thank you for making me think about it! —Kusma (talk) 06:58, 20 January 2025 (UTC)

Regarding deletion of Atul Subhash

Hi! I created the article in good faith intending to write it in the evening. The first draft might have passed the criteria for G10, I shall not argue on that, however bonafide my intentions. Regardless, I just wanted to, as a courtesy, inform you that I will be recreating it soon, as the subject is notable and warrants a good faith article. LΞVIXIUS💬 14:45, 22 January 2025 (UTC)

@Levixius, for anything related to accusing people of crimes or other wrongdoing, you need to be extremely careful with WP:BLP compliance. —Kusma (talk) 22:03, 22 January 2025 (UTC)
