Monthly rolling contest

Hi! I like the idea of the contest, but also that maybe to spice it up that the scoring/goals differ month to month? For example, a contest about adding images to articles that don't have any or a collaborative challenge to try to get a TOL DYK every day of a month.

Not opposed to the idea, but I'd like to see a decent level of participation in the basic contest before adding too many things. In any case, I don't think I can help coordinate subcontests; I'm pretty busy as is and can't really find the time. AryKun (talk) 17:35, 1 September 2023 (UTC)

New barnstorm design?

The design for the Barnstar of Life is... underwhelming for what is supposed to be our grand annual prize. I just put it there as a placeholder because I couldn't find anything better anyway; I'd appreciate if anyone could come up with a better, more exciting design that's more befitting of a grand prize.

You can create a new one with {{Barnstar maker}} just for the contest. I made one for an earlier contest and got no complaints awkwafaba (📥) 16:27, 22 September 2023 (UTC)

Coords

Anyone else want to help coordinate the contest (basically just check entries and hand out barnstars)? AryKun (talk) 08:55, 19 October 2023 (UTC)
