Chris Hampton moved to draftspace
An article you recently created, Chris Hampton, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more in-depth coverage about the subject itself, with citations from reliable, independent sources in order to show it meets WP:GNG. It should have at least three. And please remember that interviews, as primary sources, do not count towards GNG.(?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.Onel5969 TT me 11:51, 28 December 2022 (UTC)

DYK for Korey Foreman
On 23 February 2023, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Korey Foreman, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Korey Foreman held a makeshift raffle to decide where to play college football? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Korey Foreman. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Korey Foreman), 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.

WikiCup 2023 March newsletter
So ends the first round of the 2023 WikiCup. Everyone with a positive score moved on to Round 2, with 54 contestants qualifying. The top scorers in Round 1 were:
Unlimitedlead with 1205 points, a WikiCup newcomer, led the field with two featured articles on historical figures and several featured article candidate reviews.
Epicgenius was in second place with 789 points; a seasoned WikiCup competitor he specialises in buildings and locations in New York.
FrB.TG was in third place with 625 points, garnered from a featured article on a filmmaker which qualified for an impressive number of bonus points.
TheJoebro64, another WikiCup newcomer, came next with 600 points gained from two featured articles on video games.
Iazyges was in fifth place with 532 points, from two featured articles on classical history.
The top sixteen contestants at the end of Round 1 had all scored over 300 points; these included 
LunaEatsTuna, 
Thebiguglyalien, 
Sammi Brie, 
Trainsandotherthings, 
Lee Vilenski, 
Juxlos, 
Unexpectedlydian, 
SounderBruce, 
Kosack, 
BennyOnTheLoose and 
PCN02WPS. It was a high-scoring start to the competition.
These contestants, like all the others, now have to start again from scratch. The first round finished on February 26. Remember that any content promoted after that date but before the start of Round 2 can be claimed in Round 2. Some contestants made claims before the new submissions pages were set up, and they will need to resubmit them. 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, please do your bit to keep down the review backlogs! Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. Good luck!

Combine photos
Hey there, I'm just dropping by to let you know that you should be linking directly to NFL Combine instead of using a piped link to bypass the redirect (see WP:NOPIPE). And don't forget to add them to the hidden NFL infobox below as well. All of your 2023 NFL Combine photo uploads are greatly appreciated; I often forget that screenshots from YouTube videos using the CC license exist. ~ Dissident93 (talk) 13:42, 4 March 2023 (UTC)
Revising comments
Hi there. I saw your change at WT:CBBALL that you found a Final Four coaches list. However, please note that per WP:TALK#REPLIED, we generally should not change our talk page comments once someone has replied:
But if anyone has already replied to or quoted your original comment, changing your comment may deprive any replies of their original context, and this should be avoided. Once others have replied, or even if no one's replied but it's been more than a short while, if you wish to change or delete your comment, it is commonly best practice to indicate your changes.
It's better to keep your original comments, and just add a new note, perhaps like: "Update, I just found..." Regards. —Bagumba (talk) 01:20, 23 March 2023 (UTC)
Sopranos episode list
Hey, not sure how reliable the source is, but for the episodes of season 1 where ratings are missing, maybe this will prove useful: https://www.ratingsryan.com/2020/12/the-sopranos-hbo-ratings-recap.html. PanagiotisZois (talk) 21:32, 24 March 2023 (UTC)
- Ryan usually has sources for his data but unfortunately most of his season 1 data is unsourced. I messaged him asking where he got the data from and he claimed it was from a friend at Nielsen, which obviously does not meet Wikipedia's reliability standards. Newtothisedit (talk) 02:00, 25 March 2023 (UTC)
- Yeah, I can imagine that "Source: Dude trust me" probably doesn't work on Wikipedia. Still, congratulations on your FL promotion. :D --PanagiotisZois (talk) 17:19, 25 March 2023 (UTC)

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:
- Iazyges (1040) with three FAs on Byzantine emperors, and lots of bonus points.
- Unlimitedlead (847), with three FAs on ancient history, one GA and nine reviews.
- Epicgenius (636), a WikiCup veteran, with one FA on the New Amsterdam Theatre, four GAs and eleven DYKs
BennyOnTheLoose (553), a seasoned competitor, with one FA on snooker, six GAs and seven reviews.- FrB.TG (525), with one FA, a Lady Gaga song and a mass of bonus points.
Other notable performances were put in by Sammi Brie, Thebiguglyalien, 
MyCatIsAChonk, PCN02WPS, and 
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!
