3. Content Guidelines: The biography should provide a comprehensive overview of the person's life. Sub headings may include but not limited to; early life, career, and personal life.

4. No plagiarism: All submissions must be worded by yourself. Plagiarism or copying content from other sources will result in disqualification.

5. Copyright Compliance: Participants should adhere to copyright rules and only use images, information, and references that are properly licensed or in the public domain.

8. Judging Criteria: Submissions will be evaluated based on accuracy, completeness, quality of references, adherence to Wikipedia guidelines, and the size of the content.

9. Disqualification: Participants will be disqualified if they violate any contest rules, engage in disruptive editing, vandalize existing articles, or fail to meet the criteria mentioned above.

10. Duplication: Creating an already existing page on English Wikipedia will result in a points penalty. Contestants are therefore advised to search thoroughly for the names on the English Wikipedia before they begin to create the page.

Outcome

When you are done creating the Wikipedia page,
Claim your entry by [here] to sign ~~~~ next to your entry.
Jury will review your edits and add Nhwɛsoɔ:Check mark next to your signature if a Wikipedia article you created or edited meets the contest rules.
Another facilitator will increase your points on the leader board if a green correct sign, Done is added by a page you worked on. The green correct sign, shows the Wikipedia page is completed.
If you do not see any of the correct green signs by a page in the list or a facilitator adds Not done next to your signature, then you don't get a point; in which case another participant can come around and work on it to claim the point for that entry, or you may go back to working on the entry, or try a different page altogether.
