You really should communicate your intentions before just changing things. You are breaking links.--Jpatt 16:57, 31 July 2016 (EDT)

Sorry, I had a few projects today to do and was in a bit of a rush. My apologies for not checking to see if any pages were linking to the old page. Conservative (talk) 00:59, 1 August 2016 (EDT)
I sent an email to Sysops about the contest. I suggested having the minimum page size be at least 5 paragraphs.
Internet users generally don't like stub articles. And when you look at the search engines results for various searches, generally speaking stub articles are not listed on the first page of results. So if we want new readers/editors, I think we should have contests which encourage editors to create articles that are least 5 or more paragraphs long. Conservative (talk) 01:30, 1 August 2016 (EDT)

Hi, I'm not trying to complain (I seem to be ahead anyway at the moment) but is there any particular reason that Microsoft PowerPoint and Digital projector were disqualified? Thanks! --David B (TALK) 21:16, 27 November 2016 (EST)

Or have I been misunderstanding, and the other users mentions didn't have their pages disqualified, but only didn't make first or second place? --David B (TALK) 21:32, 27 November 2016 (EST)
A majority of new pages do not qualify for the contest due to the 5 paragraph minimum. Only a few contributors, such as yourself, have made the cut in new pages.
