Ref: Africa
Hello, I'm Rsrikanth05. I wanted to let you know that I reverted one of your recent contributions —specifically this edit to 2018 Africa Women Cup of Nations— because it did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Help Desk. Thanks. Rsrikanth05 (talk) 09:55, 17 November 2018 (UTC)
- This date is speculative (and, I would note, has been changed at least four times despite the claim it is somehow meaningful each time). It was "definitely" 1 December, then it was "definitely" 24 November. It's just speculation and the sort of rubbish that is overtaking Wikipedia. There are rules against "guesses" on pages - but apparently some people - you included - think the rules don't apply to them and you can guess stuff on the page. If there is any doubt (and apparently there is) then the information shouldn't be on the page. Wikipedia is a collection of facts - not a collection of "I reckons". 42.62.207.8 (talk) 11:06, 17 November 2018 (UTC)
- @42.62.207.8: Please read the policy on sources; you didn't add any. --Rsrikanth05 (talk) 11:27, 17 November 2018 (UTC)

4th GA Cup - Wrap Up
 Hello, GA Cup competitors! Saturday, April 1 concluded the 2016-2017 GA Cup. 64 reviews were completed by our finalists. Although the backlog increased by 42 over the reviewing period instead of declining, the increase suggests that the contest is encouraging editors to nominate articles for review. Congratulations to Shearonink, who is the winner of the Cup, finishing with 672 points! Once again, just as in last round, this is more than the point totals for all the other competitors combined! It was a close race for second place between Krishna Chaitanya Velaga, who achieved 164 points, and Sturmvogel_66, who earned 150. Though Sturmvogel_66 reviewed one more article than Krishna Chaitanya Velaga, Krishna Chaitanya Velaga managed to earn 14 points more due to reviewing older articles. Our two wildcard competitors, Kees08 and Chris troutman, came in fourth and fifth, respectively. There were some bumps in the competition this time: The sign-up deadline and the first round were both extended due to fewer competitors signing up then was planned for. And there were delays in tallying points and getting out the newsletter. The judges apologize for this latter difficulty. Lastly, mid-way through the competition we bid farewell to Zwerg Nase, who stepped down from their position as judge due to other commitments. Information about the Final can be found here. Thank you to all of our competitors, and congrats to our winners! Cheers from Figureskatingfan, 3family6, Jaguar, and MrWooHoo. To subscribe or unsubscribe to future GA Cup newsletters, please add or remove your name to our mailing list. If you are a participant still competing, you will be on the mailing list no matter what as this is the easiest way to communicate between all participants.
