Welcome!! This is the inaugural leg, running from 8-10 August. List your names and articles contributed at the bottom of the page and the leaderboard will be totted up each day and whoever scores the most points on a given day will win a £10 voucher. The most points accumulated at the end of the three days will be declared the county winner and the scoreboard will be carried over to the next county. Remember to also add improved new entries to the bottom of the main list on the general contest page.

• All articles for the Bristol leg must be submitted between 0:00 GMT on 8 August and 23:59 GMT on 10 August.
• All articles must be related to Bristol
• Whoever improves the most core and stub content on the relative county on a given day will be rewarded with £10. This process will be repeated every day of the contest. Whoever works the hardest will be rewarded.
• To "destub" an article all you have to do is ensure that the final article is a minimum of 1.5 kb of readable prose with no unsourced statements or badly formatted sources. Remember to update the talk page to start class when destubbing.
• If working on a core article, you must ensure that you've added a minimum of 1.5kb of readable prose and fully cleaned up/checked the existing material and that the article is fully "clean" before submitting. If an article is bloated, it may be necessary to give it a considerable trim. Material rewritten will count towards the minimum prose added, so it may be that an article might end up shorter after the cleanup.
• All paragraphs and claims must be verifiable and well sourced. References are expected to be fully formatted, with consistent dates.
• Collaboration is permitted, but only between individuals who have signed up in the participants section. The same points will be given to each of the people who have significantly improved an article together.

• Any article with a ghastly tag or totally unsourced - 5 points
• Minor cleanup of article references without expansion - 5 points
• New article - 10 points (As the purpose of the contest is really reducing the stub count, please stry to ensure that new entries are minimum 1.5 kb of readable prose.)
• Cleanup of any article from a given county not on the lists - 15 points
• Destubbing an article (minimum of 1.5kb readable prose in total) and article expansions - 25 points
• A minimum 3 kb expansion and full article cleanup -25 points (if the article was a stub you'll only get the 25 points once)
• Uploading an original photograph (no geograph or flickr photos). Each photograph has to be of a different building to get points for each. - 5 points for any subject in Bristol, 15 points for any photograph on the hotlist.
• Tackling a Core Article - 50 points (If you destub a Core Article, this is worth 75 points)
• A Good Article - 200 points. As Good Articles often require more than three days to write, nominate and pass, contestants are permitted to write and submit GAs from Bristol throughout the 21-day contest period, provided that you've started improving the article relative to the mini contest being held during the three-day period. If an editor puts in a decent effort on one article in one day and nominates before the end of the day I (Dr. Blofeld) will do my very best to get that article reviewed on the day or get somebody else to review it so the points can count towards that day. If an article is written and nominated in one day but the review isn't completed and it passed by the end of that day, but passes by the end of the three days, the points will count towards the day that the article was nominated. As long as the nominator doesn't nominate an underdeveloped article and think they can buy more time with editing it. If it takes longer than three days to full write and pass GA, the points will be later be carried over to the overall contest scoreboard but won't count towards a daily score. For instance, if contestant A wins the Bristol mini contest with 480 points and Contestant B has 300 points but later gets a GA on say Clifton Suspension Bridge after the three days, contestant A will remain the county winner, but the 200 points will be added to the overall scoreboard. However, if it is improved and passed within the three days then the points will count towards that given mini contest score.
• All Good Articles should pass GA by the 28th to be included.
• For winning the Bristol contest, the winner will be rewarded with a bonus 500 points, 200 points for 2nd and 100 points for third.
• After the subcontest has concluded, the winners will be announced and the points will be carried over to the main content scoreboard at the end of each set of three days.

See Bristol cleanup list

• See Grade I listed buildings in Bristol
• See Grade II* listed buildings in Bristol

The leaderboard with ranking of editors will be maintained during each round and moved onto the next round once it is completed. Whoever accumulates the most points in one day will win the £10 voucher. I had initially intended doing it as an article count, but as most of the funding is going into this it would defeat the object of having scoring if we did it that way, so it's most points scored every day.

@ D Eaketts: Hi check the total readable prose count at here. It has to be 1500 char in total to get the points.♦ Dr. Blofeld 10:55, 8 August 2016 (UTC) reply

It's 1254 currently I count, and there's still two unsourced paragraphs..♦ Dr. Blofeld 12:58, 8 August 2016 (UTC) reply

@ D Eaketts: It's readable prose count 1500 we're looking for, article text rather than total count, 1113 I get. So it needs a little more on this, sorry to be a pain haha.♦ Dr. Blofeld 11:32, 8 August 2016 (UTC) reply

@ D Eaketts: Thanks for that, it's currently 572 char though, ideally we're looking for minimum 1500 (1.5 kb) for all entries as the main purpose of the contest was to decrease the number of stubs we have in total.♦ Dr. Blofeld 11:30, 8 August 2016 (UTC) reply

Cheers.♦ Dr. Blofeld 11:13, 9 August 2016 (UTC) reply

I struggled to find a decent reference for that one unfortunately. I've added a ref to a message board that mentions it, but that's obviously not ideal. I'll try finding out who added that to the article and send them a message asking where they got the information from. — GasHeadSteve  _[TALK] 12:15, 9 August 2016 (UTC) reply

So much for that plan! The edit was made 6 years ago by an IP, so there's no hope of contacting them. — GasHeadSteve  _[TALK] 12:20, 9 August 2016 (UTC) reply

3. A4018 road - expanded - 25 points (though it didn't take much to get over the 1,500 limit so I'm not sure this counts) -nope, can't give 25 points on that one then.
4. Tollgate House - expanded, de-stubbed, 25 points Y
5. Westmoreland House - new article from a few weeks back, now over the 1.5K limit so can be de-stubbed Y Yes is was 1380 odd before.
6. A403 road - expanded, de-stubbed, 25 points. Y Pointless infobox removed - 5,000,000 points (for the avoidance of doubt this is what is technically called a "joke"...)

   LOL, there should be points for infobox obliteration ;-)♦ Dr. Blofeld 18:39, 8 August 2016 (UTC) reply

7. Keren Woodward - tightened up sourcing a bit, 5 points Y
8. The Mild Mild West - expanded (mostly a few weeks back) but now past 1.5K prose so can be destubbed, 25 points and a free teddy bear with molotov cocktail Y
9. Pump House, Bristol - improved verifiability, added sources - 5 points Y
10. Colston Hall - expanded, entire article now has proper inline citations, removed a bunch of copyvios, 50 points for core article + 5 for cleaning up major problems (though not tagged, they should have been). =It should be 25 points for minimum 3kb expansions, that should have been up. You'll get 75 points. the 5 is just for basic ref/verification. You did a lot more than that, Y
11. Victoria Park, Bristol - created, was on the "missing list", was speedy deleted in 2007 as WP:CSD#A1 against policy (text was "Victoria Park is situated in the south of the city of Bristol and is often referred to as being part of Bedminster" which is enough context to google for the topic). Expanded past 1.5K - at least 10 points, extra 25 for getting past stub or does that not count in this instance?

    10 points for a new article only I'm afraid, despite the irritating deletion.♦ Dr. Blofeld 18:51, 9 August 2016 (UTC) Y reply

12. Colston bun - destubbed, 25 points Y Just ;-) I thought initially that it might be some sort of variation of the man bun style, seems as I associate Colston Hall with rock!♦ Dr. Blofeld
13. Portway, Bristol - 3x expanded, nominated for GA

    M32 and Portway should both definitely have been core articles. I didn't give you the core article points for the first but I'm going to give it to you for Portway, a road which is arguably one of Britain's most iconic. So 50 core + 25 expansion =75 (200 GA pending) ♦ Dr. Blofeld 12:59, 10 August 2016 (UTC) reply

15. Crew's Hole, Bristol - destubbed, 25 points Y
16. A431 road - destubbed, 25 points (though might get a forfeit for temporarily redirecting it until I realised its historical importance as the Upper Bristol - Bath turnpike - moral of this story is never search for sources by the road sign number, you'll never get any) Y
17. Gloucester Road, Bristol - expanded a little bit, 5 points, though the main drag was from last November. One of my favourite places in Bristol, I recall drinking far too much real ale in the Hobgoblin once :-)Y
18. Wool Hall, Bristol - destubbed, 25 points Y
19. Golden Hill, Bristol - added a few sources (previously had zero inline citations and external links to map that is now a dead link and a self published book), 5 points Y

1. Expansion and update Carriage Works, Bristol - 25 points

@ Rodw: Rmember it has to be 1500 in total, it's currently about 1300. Copy and paste the article text and check at here. It's just 1500 is generally the requirement for a DYK and an official start class article, though of course it does depend. I think for this we should try to make 1500 the minimum requirement for all articles though.♦ Dr. Blofeld 11:44, 8 August 2016 (UTC) reply

@ Dr. Blofeld: re you saying expansions have to be 1500 or does this relate to the Carriage Works?— Rod ^talk 12:10, 8 August 2016 (UTC) reply

The final result Rodw for destubs has to be 1500, so you could technically work on a 1450 char stub and add just 70 char and that would be fine! Carriage Works article needs a little over 200 char for this.♦ Dr. Blofeld 12:20, 8 August 2016 (UTC) reply

15. Destubbing / New article - Clifton Lido and The Victoria Public House was on the core list, but didn't really fit together. Instead I expanded it to The Lido, Bristol and split the pub to The Victoria. Both are Grade II* listed, so I'm not sure if they both should be on the core list. I think it's worth 50 (for core) + 25 destubbing + 10 new article - but I'm not sure if it's worth an additional 50 for the second article, depends if you think it should core or not, I'm happy either way :)
