Hello, JackFromReedsburg
Thank you for creating Housing in the United States.
User:Doomsdayer520, while examining this page as a part of our page curation process, had the following comments:
Thank you for starting this new article, but it feels woefully incomplete. It is a large topic but only has one brief paragraph on how to build a house, then some stats about homelessness. To be honest, the point of this article is tough to pin down.
To reply, leave a comment here and begin it with ((Re|Doomsdayer520))

Wikipedia Day is always a big day for Wikimedia NYC. While we cannot meet in person, we still have something special planned. We will begin the event with the debut of a new video celebrating our community. This will be followed by a panel discussion with some of the people you'll see in the video talking about Wikipedia's 20th anniversary, Wikimedia New York City, and the amazing work they do on Wikimedia projects. The event will be broadcast live via YouTube. Feel free to ask questions for the panel through the chat! We will also have some NYC wiki trivia you can participate in, with confectionery prizes.

Hello, just checking if you are still planning to review Nuclear power. It has been over a week since you started the review page, but haven't heard anything since then.

Dear Mr. JackFromReedsburg,
Thanks for your welcome to Wikipedia.

It might not have been your intention, but you recently removed maintenance templates from Corona (beer). When removing maintenance templates, please be sure to either resolve the problem that the template refers to, or give a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Please see Help:Maintenance template removal for further information on when maintenance templates should or should not be removed. If this was a mistake, don't worry, as your removal of this template has been reverted. Thank you. — Smjg (talk) 21:27, 1 May 2021 (UTC)
Your recent editing history at May 10 shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See the bold, revert, discuss cycle for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.
Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you do not violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

Hi there, I'm Tina, a COI editor working for the Sussex-based company Quad. I recently made an edit request to update Quad's Wikipedia page, and was hoping someone with a warm spot for Wisconsin would like to help out with those edits.

Hello JackFromWisconsin,
I also happen to hail from the Badger State, and was curious as to what areas related to Wisconsin you enjoyed writing about or researching in particular. I personally would like to write an article about Cycling in Wisconsin as there are articles about biking in other U.S. states and countries, but I don't believe one yet exists for Wisconsin. It's always great to bounce ideas off of others.

On 16 November 2021, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Geography of Wisconsin, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that glaciation in Wisconsin 17 thousand years ago helped create its unique geography? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Geography of Wisconsin. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Geography of Wisconsin), and if they received a combined total of at least 416.7 views per hour (i.e., 5,000 views in 12 hours or 10,000 in 24), the hook may be added to the statistics page. 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.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/CurderBurger until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.
Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article.

And so ends the first round of the WikiCup. Last year anyone who scored more than zero points moved on to Round 2, but this was not the case this year, and a score of 13 or more was required to proceed. The top scorers in Round 1 were:
These contestants, like all the others who qualified for Round 2, now have to start scoring points again from scratch. Between them, contestants completed reviews of a large number of good articles as the contest ran concurrently with a GAN backlog drive. Well done all! To qualify for Round 3, contestants will need to finish Round 2 among the top thirty-two participants.
Remember that any content promoted after the end of Round 1 but before the start of Round 2 can be claimed in Round 2. Anything that should have been claimed for in Round 1 is no longer eligible for points. 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.
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 yourself from Wikipedia:WikiCup/Newsletter/Send.
