Any article may be disqualified at the judges’ discretion.

The grading system for the winners would be as follows:

  • One point (1.0) would be awarded for every new Wikipedia article created.
  • One point (1.0) for every 1000 bytes of content for the articles.

  • Please read the rules very carefully before the contest commences.
  • Articles must be in the mainspace by the end of the competition period.

  • It is important that before starting new entries on the English Wikipedia, you take the time to ensure that articles meet notability guidelines and have the adequate coverage in reliable sources needed to be acceptable on Wikipedia.
  • Images should comply with the Commons conditions.
  • Take extra care to avoid paraphrasing and copyright violation. it is a bit difficult to avoid sentences that do not resemble something in a source but it is important that the articles are without problems and will stick around on Wikipedia for a long time.
