This is an old revision of this page, as edited by Iduan (talk | contribs) at 04:37, November 14, 2007. It may differ significantly from current revision.
Given the confusion this time - this will be my proposed scoring for the next contest. Changes:
- Entertainment articles get about 3/4 the value of non-entertainment - we shouldn't have quality edits ever getting the same amount of points as minor edits
- Copied entries get 2 points each - they're easy to do, so they shouldn't get more than 2
- Templates get 3 points
- Breaking news: non administrator gets 2 points too - otherwise it's too biased
Point System
New entry

- Exception: Entertainment-related* Quality New Entries will receive only 11 points.
Ordinary New Entry: 6 points
- Definition: An Ordinary New Entry is a new entry which does not meet the qualifications for a Quality New Entry, but is of higher quality than a Short New Entry.

Images
Adding an image: 1pts
- Definition: If you add an image to Conservapedia

It is at the administrator's discretion whether to place the article on the Main page. Editing an associated article (wikilinked) will score points under the regular points system.

An entry is "entertainment-related" if it relates to a subject not taught as core curriculum in a typical high school or college. This includes articles on sports, popular music, movies, and other entertaining but not necessarily educational subjects.
- Exception: Full credit will be given for notable or important historical subjects, and for political entries.
- Exception: Full credit will be given for reasonable subjects which are educational but not necessarily taught in a typical school.
