Final Top Participants[edit]

Rationale[edit]

The contest was judged on a number of quantitative rules. However, there is a qualitative rule which states that "the organizers have the final say in the scoring of the contributions, and will clarify the rules and points if needed. Please note that the aim of the contest is to improve Wikipedia and Wikivoyage with high-quality articles, so any content of low quality that has been added will lose points or even result in a ban from the contest if the organizers so decide." The organizers have gone through the articles of the top participants, trying to weigh in on the qualitative aspect. There are quite a few examples where heavy tables with loads of references have been introduced, rather than the actual content, and also copy-pasted content in numerous articles. We believe this to be in violation of the rule above and weighed down these contributions. This means that the final top participants don't correspond with the top contributors on the articles list. Any questions around this can be put to the organizers.
