Standing contest
How it works
This contest has a fairly simple structure. At this point, the project is administered by the project coordinators, although that is eligible for change.
| Ending class | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Beginning class |
Start/C | B/GA | A/FA | |
| None/Stub | +1 | +6 | +16 | |
| Start/C | +5 | +15 | ||
| B/GA | +10 | |||
1. The contest is broken up into time periods, running from the first to the last day of each month. Editors nominate the articles they intend on improving over the course of the month and have until the end of the month to make improvements to that article. 2. Early the following month, a designated party, at this point one of the project coordinators, checks the entries and awards points on the basis of the actual improvements made, using the project's quality scale as a guideline. At their discretion, coordinators may include points from A-Class and FA reviews which close slightly after the last day of the contest period.
- The coordinators tally the nominators' points totals, and determine the monthly, quarterly, and annual winners.

Special contests
There are a few standing special contests as well, with rules slightly different from those above.
Monthly challenge
There is the monthly challenge. Every month, we receive a list, which can be seen at Wikipedia:WikiProject Christianity/Popular pages of the 1000 articles related to this project which have gotten the most views during the previous month. Every month, there will be a challenge to improve some of the articles listed. This challenge will use the same point system as that above, but will give an extra five points for each article.
This month's articles:
- Aryan Nations (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) (stub class) unclaimed

- This challenge only applies to those articles listed at Wikipedia:WikiProject Christianity/Core topics work group/Topic list.
- In addition to the regular points, an additional 10 points will be given to editors improving these selected articles.
