Apologies for self-revert chain on this page
Misclicked the revert button on popups, then found out that when you click "back" to a popup action it repeats the action. --Richard Yin (talk) 20:05, 30 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). Good luck! If you wish to start or stop receiving this newsletter, please feel free to add or remove your name from Misplaced Pages:WikiCup/Newsletter/Send.

- Just letting you no about this as a courtesy since you're the admin who deleted the article. The account making the request was created today, and this is their only edit so far. Perhaps this is the same user that created the deleted article. -- Marchjuly (talk) 02:58, 1 January 2025 (UTC)

typo
this doesn't matter much, so feel free to ignore, but in my gnoming travels I noticed you seem to have made a typo in your support comment at the "community encouraged" proposed decision. thanks, beepboopbwaph (talk) 15:59, 12 January 2025 (UTC)
- @Beepboopbwaph: If you give me the fix in a {{xt}} here, I will update my comment -- Guerillero 16:06, 12 January 2025 (UTC)

Ethiopian Epic.
Hello, I see you were the closing administrator on the topic ban for EE at Yasuke. A new single purpose account has popped up doing the same reverts as EE, now EE has basically 'left' and the new account has taken up the same tack. Bladeandroid.Halbared (talk) 19:45, 15 January 2025 (UTC)
