Welcome to the Meat WikiCup 2012! The Meat WikiCup is an event where participants create and expand as much bacon-related content as possible, score points, and try to score as high as they can, similar to the Wikipedia WikiCup. Upon the ending of the Meat WikiCup on the first day of March, the Meat WikiCup 2012 Trophy will be awarded to the contributor with the most points, along with everyone receiving a medal for their efforts. In addition, awards will be given out to the users who contribute the most in specific categories.
All participants should report any and all meat-related contributions to the submissions section. Points will only be scored for reported contributions! The scorekeeper will add points to the scoring table located below this section.
Point scoring is as follows:

This scoring system serves as a guide as to how contributions for the Meat WikiCup 2012 are scored for the Bacon WikiCup.
It is normally strictly followed, but may not always be if an edit is not as bacon-licious as it could be, or is more bacon-tastic than required (hint...bonus points!).
Scoring is not limited to the contributions listed here - any edit that helps to expand and improve Wikipedia's coverage of bacon may be submitted for points.
To submit your bacon-related contributions for scoring, please go to the submission section.
