DYK for Geoff Bent
On 7 June 2023, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Geoff Bent, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Geoff Bent, one of Manchester United's Busby Babes, saved a child from drowning in a canal? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Geoff Bent. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Geoff Bent), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

Review request
Hi Harrias. As the holder of many an FA and a GA, I wonder if you would be kind enough to review the Christ Church Ground, which I have nominated for GA status? Quite an interesting ground, and it would be nice to get a varsity/minor counties venue to GA status. StickyWicket aka AA (talk) 23:19, 14 July 2023 (UTC)
- @StickeyWicket: I'm super busy in 'real-life' at the moment (have an interview at work for a promotion later this week), but if it is still around when I have more availability, I'll absolutely take a look. Harrias (he/him) • talk 08:59, 17 July 2023 (UTC)
- Best of luck with the interview! It will probably still be around, I haven't 'advertised' the nomination as yet. Cheers, StickyWicket aka AA (talk) 09:47, 17 July 2023 (UTC)

Adamson Tannehill FAC review
Hello Harrias, thanks very much for taking on my FAC, Adamson Tannehill!! I really appreciate your comments. I'll get to them as soon as I can, but it may take a little time. I hope this is okay. I'm relatively new to the "latest" Wikipedia, following a 15-year hiatus, so I may have a few questions as I move along. I also have another set of reviewer comments that I have to address at the same time. Cheers! Tfhentz (talk) 14:50, 29 September 2023 (UTC)

WikiCup 2024 March newsletter
The first round of the 2024 WikiCup ended at 23:59 (UTC) on 27 February. Everyone with at least 30 points moved on to Round 2, the highest number of points required to advance to the second round since 2014. Due to a six-way tie for the 64th-place spot, 67 contestants have qualified for Round 2.
The following scorers in Round 1 all scored more than 300 points:
- Generalissima (submissions), who has 916 points mostly from one FA on John Littlejohn (preacher), 15 GAs, and 16 DYKs on a variety of topics including New Zealand coinage and Inuit figures, in addition to seven reviews
- Vami_IV (submissions), who has 790 points from two FAs on Felix M. Warburg House and Doom (2016 video game), two GAs, one DYK, and 11 reviews
- AirshipJungleman29 (submissions), who has 580 points from one FA on Hö'elün, two GAs on Mongolia-related articles, two DYKs, and five reviews
- Sammi Brie (submissions), who has 420 points mostly from nine GAs and seven DYKs on television and radio stations
- MaranoFan (submissions), who has 351 points from one FA on Holidays (Meghan Trainor song), a nine-article FT on 30 (album), and three DYKs
- Skyshifter (submissions), who has 345 points from one FA on OneShot, one DYK and two reviews
In this newsletter, the judges would like to pay a special tribute to Vami_IV (submissions), who unfortunately passed away this February. At the time of his death, he was the second-highest-scoring competitor. Outside the WikiCup, he had eight other featured articles, five A-class articles, eight other good articles, and two Four Awards. Vami also wrote an essay on completionism, a philosophy in which he deeply believed. If you can, please join us in honoring his memory by improving one of the articles on his to-do list.
Remember that any content promoted after 27 February but before the start of Round 2 can be claimed in Round 2. Invitations for collaborative writing efforts or any other discussion of potentially interesting work is always welcome on the WikiCup talk page. Remember, if two or more WikiCup competitors have done significant work on an article, all can claim points. If you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is at good article candidates, a featured process, or anywhere else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews Needed. If you want to help out with the WikiCup, feel free to review one of the nominations listed on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews Needed. Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages. Good luck!
