== Welcome to the 2025 WikiCup! ==
::{{ping|Guerillero}}Thanks for the response. Here is some of the evidence that I think warrants a further investigation:


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 ''']'''. If you have not yet signed up, you can ''']''' 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 ].
::PatCheng was an active editor in 2006. He was editing less frequently in summer of 2006, and stopped editing in September 2006. (After being silent for 13 years, he returned to editing suddenly in 2019 solely to report me to ANI and AE).
::PCPP created his account in summer 2006, and made first edit in November 2006.


For the 2025 WikiCup, we've implemented ] to the scoring system. The highest-ranking contestants will now receive ] 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 editing interests of these accounts in 2006/2007 and later are extremely similar. Both editors focused extensively on video games and popular culture, and on Falun Gong, the Epoch Times, human rights in China. Both accounts seemed to edit from the same POV on topics related to China. Falun Gong and the Epoch Times are among the top five articles edited by both accounts.
::* Analysis of PatCheng's contribution history:
::* Analysis of PCPP's contribution history:


The first round will end on 26 February. The judges for the WikiCup this year are: {{User4|Cwmhiraeth}}, {{User4|Epicgenius}}, {{User4|Frostly}}, {{User4|Guerillero}} and {{User4|Lee Vilenski}}. Good luck! <small>If you wish to start or stop receiving this newsletter, please feel free to add or remove your name from ].</small> ] (]) 00:13, 1 January 2025 (UTC)

Here are PatCheng's edits to that template:{{diff2|46883322|02:51, 4 April 2006}}, {{diff2|46882831|02:45, 4 April 2006}}, and {{diff2|45066774|01:08, 23 March 2006‎}}

::::{{ping|Guerillero}}Thanks for the response. The video games may be popular. But most editors do not edit template pages. And it's very strange that two unconnected accounts would edit the same video games template pages, AND that they would also both primary focus on editing Falun Gong/Epoch Times pages (where they exhibit the same POV), AND that one account is created when the other stops editing. Statistically, the chance this is coincidence is very low. And even though PCPP was topic banned from Falun Gong in 2011, he violated the ban as recently as 2016.

::::I would say your question regarding the 8 year break between PCP's ban and PatCheng's return is reasonable. However, even though PCPP was topic banned from Falun Gong in 2011, he violated the ban multiple times.

I'm sure this was just an error, but after you said that you would be applying the same discretionary sanctions to each editor pinged, you then gave ] a notice, rather than a sanction.

== Explanation Required ==
Please explain in unambiguous terms how ''one single revert'' on a page in a decade constitutes edit warring, especially since a) the page's edit policy specified that an editor may not revert more than once every 24 hours, b) I have never been sanctioned or even warned about any kind of misbehavior in relation to the topic area, c) I have consistently advocated for civility, discussion and de-escalation of any battleground mentality on the talk page, and my only revert was directly related to fostering this approach. ] (]) 20:39, 27 July 2020 (UTC)

Apologies for self-revert chain on this page

@Richard Yin: No worries. Happy editing! -- Guerillero 16:30, 31 December 2024 (UTC)

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).
