From the Judges

Wow, you guys are racking up the DYK's fast! Good articles are also coming in quite quickly, and we also have a few new Featured articles. This is coming along great so far; we're glad to see almost everyone working on something.

Also, Thehelpfulone is our newest judge. He will, starting Monday, be helping maintain the WikiCup and help us ensure all runs smoothly. It's hard to gain consensus between two editors, so I guess "majority rules" (with three people) will start to apply while we make our decision. :-P

This is a section in the newsletter devoted to help familiarize project members with the Manual of Style and general editing tips.

1. This list is of topics that may be easy (or are fairly close) to Good Topic status. Consider helping by improving an article on the list that is not yet at Good Article status.
2. Consider expanding an article from the project's list of stub articles and nominating it at Did You Know?. The project's goal is to have 100 total DYKs by the end of the year.
3. All Wikipedia articles should be written from a neutral point-of-view, representing fairly, and as far as possible without bias, all significant views that have been published by reliable sources.
4. When the title of an refers to several things, it is necessary to provide links or disambiguate the page so that readers typing in that title can quickly navigate to the article that interests them. For example: World Heavyweight Championship (WWE).
5. Addition of content that is likely to be challenged in an article needs to be verified with a reliable source
6. Do not overlink terms in an article, only make links where they are relevant to the context.
7. When creating an article that has an image, make sure the image is right-aligned in the lead or in the infobox, per MOS:IMAGES.

From the Judges

We're still going strong. Couple of things though; please note that you must make it known you are in the WikiCup when nominating FAs, FLs, FPos, FPs, and FSs. This is to lower the possibility of bias. We're also changing the way you get to the next round. Now, the top two from each round get through, along with ten wildcards. This means that even if you're not in the top two you can still get into Round 2, so even if you're in the group of death you can still go through. Hopefully this will be fairer for all. We've also unfortunately had our first withdrawal -   Truco has left the Cup. Best wishes for him in the future. Garden., iMatthew // talk, and The Helpful One

This is a section in the newsletter devoted to help familiarize project members with the Manual of Style and general editing tips.

1. All Wikipedia articles should be written from a neutral point-of-view.
2. Do not overlink terms in an article, only make links where they are relevant to the context, and only link each item once. Tables are the exception to this rule, e.g. the results table in pay-per-view articles.
3. When editing an article, use the edit summary to provide a brief summary of your edits; this helps users understand what was changed in the article.
4. Avoid using dirtsheets as sources. Adhere to WP:RS when adding information with a source to articles. For a list of reliable and unreliable wrestling-related sources see Wikipedia:WikiProject Professional wrestling/Style guide#Sources.
5. Per WP:MOSCAPS, television shows, such as RAW and iMPACT!, should be written as Raw and Impact!.

From the Judges

We have 31 days left, just one month left in the first round. The first two months have already produced spectacular results, and we're hoping to see a great race to the end of the round. Get those nominations in for them to count for this round, but remember that any nominations that are not promoted before the end of this round, will still count for round two if you make it. We unfortunately had another contestant, What!?Why?Who?, withdraw this week and we wish them the best.

We saw some big jumps in content upgrades this week! We saw 33 new good articles, 3 new featured articles and lists, 8 featured pictures, 5 featured sounds, and 24 did you know items. (Also note, there are 111 good articles and 222 did you know items as of this newsletter). Keep it up during the final push to round two.  GARDEN , iMatthew // talk, and The Helpful One
