re Justin Perfomance Cancelled
Can't comment there, so here I am!
Notability is always the thing, re his cancelled 'concert'. How many times has this happened? At least twice now. I noticed the US report was a bit 'buried' in his career section, possibly(guessing) so it does not get "undue weight"? More notable because "manager, Scooter Braun, was arrested" and "Island Records senior vice-president, got charged"? Sounds lke we had more turn up down here, though such figures are probably guesses. According to news reports people came from Perth, Western Australia for this event!
A "Controversy" section may be an idea (I like to have subheadings to find things easier) but may get reverted as above, for 'undue weight' . On the other hand if this is happening frequently, and reliable sources are cited?
From the noise I heard it seems unlikely anyone could have heard him over the screaming!(POV). Saw him on the news, and he was badmouthing Vegemite! :-o (Well, at least said he didn't like it.) But he liked Jaffas. (Likes /Dislike section? ;-] )
TV news said 14 were treated at his 'concert'. Is that a 'notable' number? Nb. According to his article (from 01:03 to 2:55, 26 April 2010) he was born on March 69th! And what happens when his voice breaks?

- Copied to the talk page of Justin's article. I'll deal with this more tomorrow. -- sk8er5000 yeah? 10:11, 26 April 2010 (UTC)

WikiCup 2010 April newsletter
Round two is over, and we are down to our final 32. For anyone interested in the final standings (though not arranged by group) this page has been compiled. Congratulations to 
Hunter Kahn (submissions), our clear overall round winner, and to 
ThinkBlue (submissions) and 
Arsenikk (submissions), who were solidly second and third respectively. There were a good number of high scorers this round- competition was certainly tough! Round three begins tomorrow, but anything promoted after the end of round two is eligible for points. 16 contestants (eight pool leaders and eight wildcards) will progress to round four in two months- things are really starting to get competitive. Anything you worry may not receive the necessary attention before the end of the round (such as outstanding GA or FA nominations) is welcome at Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews, and please remember to continue offering reviews yourself where possible. As always, the judges are available to contact via email, IRC or their talk pages, and general discussion about the Cup is welcome on the WikiCup talk page.
Judge iMatthew has retired from Wikipedia, and we wish him the best. The competition has been ticking over well with minimal need for judge intervention, so thank you to everyone making that possible. A special thank you goes to participants 
Stone (submissions) and 
White Shadows (submissions) for their help in preparing for round three. Good luck everyone! If you wish to start receiving or stop receiving this newsletter, please feel free to add or remove yourself from Wikipedia:WikiCup/Newsletter/Send. J Milburn, Fox and The ed17 17:38, 30 April 2010 (UTC)
