A few days left...
[edit]As we approach the beginning of the wikicup 2025 I wish to bring attention to a few useful tools for the contest.
- Wikipedia:Good article review circles You get a review and review another in exchange, a very simple way to get atleast 40 points.
- Wikipedia:Former featured and good topics Picking up a topic and restoring it shouldn't take too long depending on what you pick.
- Wikipedia:Reward board Provides other incentives to produce quality content
While most May find this redundant I hope atleast one person benefits from any of these. Questions? four Olifanofmrtennant (she/her) 11:22, 28 December 2024 (UTC)

My participation in WikiCup
[edit]I'm ready for the third round and I don't care if I'm in it or not. Spectra321578 (talk) 07:08, 29 April 2025 (UTC)
- Why do you always leave these odd comments? All you've submitted this whole time is a draft that resembles your username. You only have 151 edits in total, most of which is just editing your userspace and leaving strange comments on this talk page. ~WikiOriginal-9~ (talk) 17:01, 29 April 2025 (UTC)
- Just a reminder Spectra321578 (talk) 17:36, 29 April 2025 (UTC)
Wait, is there actually a physical trophy?
[edit]Just curious. —Mint Keyphase (Did I mess up? What have I done?) 04:44, 2 June 2025 (UTC)
- Sadly not. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 07:47, 2 June 2025 (UTC)
- There should be. I'd pay good money for a WikiCup trophy autographed by Jimbo. BeanieFan11 (talk) 00:39, 4 June 2025 (UTC)
- I mean, if someone's willing to pay... Hey WMF you got any money to spare? – Epicgenius (talk) 01:37, 4 June 2025 (UTC)
- Trophies aren't exactly expensive. Custom trophies on Amazon start around $20, with the fancier stuff coming in at the $75-150 range. The real challenge would be shipping to a winner who may not wish to give away their address. It could be a cute thing to at least offer a winner, though. -- Tamzin[cetacean needed] (they|xe|🤷) 10:15, 6 June 2025 (UTC)
- In theory yeah, it would be nice to have. If people want an actual trophy, maybe someone might want to offer something at the Wikipedia:Reward board. – Epicgenius (talk) 14:02, 6 June 2025 (UTC)
- If someday a miracle happens and I was to win, I might just get one of these for myself *shrug* Kingsif (talk) 00:30, 14 June 2025 (UTC)

- Someone look into it and give me a quote. Panini! • 🥪 03:36, 4 June 2025 (UTC)
- So where did that photo come from? —Mint Keyphase (Did I mess up? What have I done?) 09:39, 6 June 2025 (UTC)
- At least $100,000 and no less.

Withdrawal
[edit]Given my recent lack of activity on Wikipedia during the start of summer, I'm withdrawing for the year. I'll try to compete again next year. Lazman321 (talk) 06:50, 6 June 2025 (UTC)
- @Lazman321, I've withdrawn you from the Cup. Thank you for participating. – Epicgenius (talk) 13:59, 6 June 2025 (UTC)
Multiplier Bot
[edit]The Multiplier Bot broke on me again, Væb's GA should have a 1.8x but didn't get any. History6042😊 (Contact me) 12:30, 13 June 2025 (UTC)
- It should have a 1.0x multiplier as the page had no interwikis on 31 December. —Kusma (talk) 12:36, 13 June 2025 (UTC)
- Oh sorry, I thought it was based on what it was currently. History6042😊 (Contact me) 19:47, 13 June 2025 (UTC)
