Preparation page for Writing Contest

Time

10.30 until 16.00 (after opening speech, minus one hour for jury discussions)

Place

People have to write the article itself on site with the accounts created by us(User:WPDCH2006_Team1-whatever). Of course they can go to libraries to consult books (or go home and do the same), they are very welcome to the lemma itself (say, it's a Zurich-newspaper, they could go to the house of the redaction) and take some pictures (do we have usb at the laptops?) etc.

Language

German. Sorry, but we are not able to correct French articles and we are in Zurich. The articles will go to dewp. If somebody feels capable to translate it also into English, fine, but this will not count.

Lemmata

these lemmata + any other zurich-(exceptionally CH-)related, not yet existing, valuable/relevant topic people can think of (and which is approved by us).

Jury

All Wikipedia Day Organisation Committee people, who are present between 16 - 17.00

Prizes

for the winner: ?

Partipants

All participants have to "register" with the Organisation Committee (OC). They fill out a form, where they state the article they have/want to prepare(d), their name (of all team members), one adress, one phone number, one emailadress.

Review of articles

To keep things easy, the jury will fill out prepared forms, which provide criteria for form and content of the article and they will assess a mark between 1 and 10 for each criterion. The average mark will decide...

Groups

One team is limited to 1-5 participants.

Award ceremony

One jury member will announce the winner on stage, he will quickly state reasons for the judgements (nice pictures/neat tables/high degree of formatting/great content/etc. etc.) and if the winner is present he will hand over the prize(s).
