Do you have an Erdős number?

[edit]
  • Offeror: bobrayner (talk)
  • Date offered: 18 September 2012
  • Request: This is a slightly different one. Put simply, I have a (low) Bacon number but I think it would be cooler to have an Erdős number (and, hence, an Erdős-Bacon number). This is just for personal gratification, so we don't need to treat the criteria too strictly - I think it would be sufficient to cowrite a substantial article with an editor who has an Erdős number, and perhaps take it through a peer-review process such as GA or FA. This offer is only open to editors who have an Erdős number. I like writing articles on commerce, transport, Africa, and history (especially Ottoman history, maybe a little economic history/taxation &c) and I have some article ideas on the drawing board, but I'm open to suggestions. What do you think? Would you cowrite something with me?
  • Reward: A glittering array of awards awaits:
    • An appropriate barnstar
    • A donation of $100 or €100 to a charity of your choice
    • The undying respect of your peers (Subject to availability. No cash alternative.)
    • If you want to "swap", and get a Bacon number (and, hence, an Erdős-Bacon number) for yourself, I'd happily to collaborate on that in some way - all suggestions welcomed.
  • Expires: 18 September 2013.

Expand List of Wikipedia controversies

[edit]
  • Offeror: SB Johnny on behalf of The Wikipediocracy Fund
  • Date offered: 15 April 2013
  • Request: English Wikipedia now has a new List article about the various Wikipedia controversies that have taken place over the years. The List is organized chronologically, by the date when the controversy either happened or became notably covered in reliable sources. We wish to see the List expanded with additional bullet points, where each bullet point is an independent event, and the editor must write at least 50 words about the event, and properly reference at least one credible, reliable source to verify the event and demonstrate its notability. Candidates for this prize will be registered Wikipedia user accounts whose entries are submitted under just one account (no use of multiple accounts). The judges will disqualify any added bullet points that fail to meet the 50-word minimum, or that insufficiently document the content with legitimate reliable sourcing. The judges will also disqualify any user who attempts to "game" the challenge (such as: duplicating entries on the same controversy; deleting the work of others and trying to re-add it as his/her own; plagiarizing other sources; etc.). Note that some Wikipedia articles already have a "Wikipedia controversy" section. Adding these to the new List are fair game, but the edit summary must clearly indicate that the content was based on material already in Wikipedia, not newly-generated content. Also, if you enter copied material that was covered only in a non-English Wikipedia, your edit summary must clearly indicate that your content was based on material translated from another Wikipedia, not newly-generated content.
  • Reward: Every qualifying contributor to the List will receive a coveted Internet Barnstar. The contributor adding the second-most qualifying bullet points will receive $75 (USD) from The Wikipediocracy Fund. The contributor who adds the most qualifying bullet points will receive $150 (USD) from The Wikipediocracy Fund, along with the Oddball Barnstar. Cash awards may be received via check or PayPal (to recipients who are willing to disclose their identity to Wikipediocracy judges), or the awards may be donated to a non-profit humanitarian charity of choice.
  • Limit on rewards: No limit on Internet Barnstars. Limit of two (2) cash awards.
  • Expires: 31 May 2013. Judges will issue all the awards before 15 June 2013.
