Your GA nomination of Johan Ruijsink

The article Johan Ruijsink you nominated as a good article has passed ; see Talk:Johan Ruijsink for comments about the article, and Talk:Johan Ruijsink/GA1 for the nomination. Well done! If the article has not already appeared on the main page as a "Did you know" item, or as a bold link under "In the News" or in the "On This Day" prose section, you can nominate it within the next seven days to appear in DYK. Bolded names with dates listed at the bottom of the "On This Day" column do not affect DYK eligibility.

WikiCup 2023 May newsletter

The second round of the 2023 WikiCup has now finished. Contestants needed to have scored 60 points to advance into round 3. Our top five scorers in round 2 all included a featured article among their submissions and each scored over 500 points. They were:

Other notable performances were put in by Sammi Brie, Thebiguglyalien, MyCatIsAChonk, Chicago PCN02WPS, and London AirshipJungleman29.

So far contestants have achieved thirteen featured articles between them, one being a joint effort, and forty-nine good articles. The judges are pleased with the thorough reviews that are being performed, and have hardly had to reject any. As we enter the third round, remember that any content promoted after the end of round 2 but before the start of round 3 can be claimed in round 3. Remember too that you must claim your points within 14 days of "earning" them.

If you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is at good article nominations, a featured process, or anywhere else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews Needed (remember to remove your listing when no longer required). Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. Good luck! If you wish to start or stop receiving this newsletter, please feel free to add or remove your name from Wikipedia:WikiCup/Newsletter/Send. Sturmvogel 66 and Cwmhiraeth.

DYK for 2023 Tour Championship

On 15 May 2023, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article 2023 Tour Championship, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Kyren Wilson won the first four frames in all of his matches at the 2023 Tour Championship? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/2023 Tour Championship. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, 2023 Tour Championship), 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.

Hey there. I replied to you at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Tommy Sheehan (Survivor contestant). George Ho (talk) 05:31, 14 May 2023 (UTC)

If I'm honest, I didn't really understand your reply. 1E is an exemption for GNG. The way I've always interpreted this, is that if an article meets GNG, but all of the items are discussing one thing that they did, then they aren't notable, the thing is potentially notable (and in this case, the thing is Survivor, so it should be redirected). However, in my eyes, there's a few sources talking about Sheehan doing other things (even if they undoubtedly mention Survivor), which to me gets around it being a 1E situation. There was someone else who suggested that for a BLP you should have to discount all items referring to that single event and see if they still meet GNG (or any N), which might be a valid understanding, but not the one I have. Lee Vilenski (talkcontribs) 09:43, 14 May 2023 (UTC)
I made more replies there. Hopefully, I'm clearer this time. If not, perhaps I failed again. George Ho (talk) 19:00, 17 May 2023 (UTC)
