The last contest might have lasted forever, without jokers, had not
the leaders agreed to split first place. With four (cumulative!)
jokers a day, how will this one ever end?

I've promised a few people that I would set this
up:
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/International_Wikinews_Writing_Contest
It's an attempt to increase the story output on Wikinews across all
languages, inspired by the English writing contest in April. The basic
idea is simple: Each contestant needs to write a story a day, or use a
joker if available. When one fails to write a story within 24 hours, and
runs out of jokers, one drops out of the contest. The last three persons
to remain in the contest will be the winners.
Please comment, translate or edit the rules and instructions. We need
prizes, judges from each language, and contestants. So, please spread
the word about this. I would like it to begin on September 1, 2005.
Best,
Erik
