[edit]Road to Ninja: Naruto the Movie
[edit]Hi there. I decided to expand the article of Road to Ninja: Naruto the Movie but ended up lacking sources about the cast or the making of it. If by any chance you find something could you share it? Cheers.Tintor2 (talk) 16:03, 17 November 2024 (UTC)

Welcome to the 2025 WikiCup!
[edit]Happy New Year and Happy New WikiCup! The 2025 competition has just begun and all article creators, expanders, improvers and reviewers are welcome to take part. Even if you are a novice editor, we hope the WikiCup will give you a chance to improve your editing skills as you go. If you have already signed up, your submissions page can be found here. If you have not yet signed up, you can add your name here and the judges will set up your submissions page ready for you to take part. Any questions on the scoring, rules or anything else should be directed to one of the judges, or posted to the WikiCup talk page.
For the 2025 WikiCup, we've implemented several changes to the scoring system. The highest-ranking contestants will now receive tournament points at the end of each round, and final rankings are decided by the number of tournament points each contestant has. If you're busy and can't sign up in January, don't worry: Signups are now open throughout the year. To make things fairer for latecomers, the lowest-scoring contestants will no longer be eliminated at the end of each round.
The first round will end on 26 February. The judges for the WikiCup this year are: Cwmhiraeth (talk · contribs · email), Epicgenius (talk · contribs · email), Frostly (talk · contribs · email), Guerillero (talk · contribs · email) and Lee Vilenski (talk · contribs · 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.

Administrators' newsletter – January 2025
[edit]News and updates for administrators from the past month (December 2024).
Administrator changes
CheckUser changes
Guideline and policy news
- Following an RFC, Wikipedia:Notability (species) was adopted as a subject-specific notability guideline.
- A request for comment is open to discuss whether admins should be advised to warn users rather than issue no-warning blocks to those who have posted promotional content outside of article space.
Technical news
- The Nuke feature also now provides links to the userpage of the user whose pages were deleted, and to the pages which were not selected for deletion, after page deletions are queued. This enables easier follow-up admin-actions.
Arbitration
- Following the 2024 Arbitration Committee elections, the following editors have been elected to the Arbitration Committee: CaptainEek, Daniel, Elli, KrakatoaKatie, Liz, Primefac, ScottishFinnishRadish, Theleekycauldron, Worm That Turned.
Miscellaneous
- A New Pages Patrol backlog drive is happening in January 2025 to reduce the number of unreviewed articles and redirects in the new pages feed. Sign up here to participate!

About your changes to Ghibli film articles
[edit]Hey Sjones23, I've just gone through my watchlist and seen you remove information about several films' producers and distribution companies from their lead sections, most of which I've now put back in. Why? —TechnoSquirrel69 (sigh) 16:37, 11 January 2025 (UTC)
- Hey, there. While I'm reformatting the lead sections using the certain GA and FA articles as references (including those pertaining to the Marvel Cinematic Universe and Back to the Future), there are some relevant guidelines and essays including User:Erik/Best practices, WP:LEADSENTENCE and WP:FILMLEAD which could be useful on how we often handle these sections in the film articles.
- There are sources used within quite a few Ghibli-related articles that list Ghibli as the production company and the end credits of Ghibli films often list the studio itself under the "production" section (per Wikipedia:WikiProject Japan/Film credits glossary#Terms, 制作 means "production") towards the end of said films.
- Of course, we can also ask on the WT:MOSFILM page for additional clarification. I've raised the issue here, if you are interested. Lord Sjones23 (talk - contributions) 18:52, 11 January 2025 (UTC)
- Thanks for opening that section, I might join in if I have something to add. In general, I agree that the inclusion of details like the producer(s) or related companies can be decided on a case-by-case basis, but that makes some of your changes on the Ghibli articles even more confusing to me. On Princess Mononoke, for example, you removed the mention of Toshio Suzuki from the lead despite his taking a significant role in the production and promotion of the film. (He was also mentioned later in the lead, which created a problem with his name being used without introduction.) I understand the concern with the terminology used to refer to Studio Ghibli, (they're referred to as the production company in the infobox, for what it's worth) but saying the film was produced by them would obviously create ambiguity with the producer, and most reliable sources primarily discuss it as an animation studio, not a production house, anyway. Hopefully that explains why I've made the reversions I did, and I've left edit summaries with some further detail otherwise. —TechnoSquirrel69 (sigh) 23:00, 11 January 2025 (UTC)
