Note: Some of these categories may not be won due to some articles don't relate to that. Of course most articles will have a winner. Feel free to give me opinions on who should win a certain category. Thank you and I'll see you at the First Ever Wiki Awards!!!

I'd like to say that some of the best "Individual" articles are Diego Amerez (I forgot where the apostrophes were) and Jacasta Ducato. I haven't seen all the funny articles, as my random page generator keeps taking me to the same pages, but I like the Darth Darth one I made a lot because it makes fun of vandals. There is also my C-3PO the Dragon Slayer story that I named myself after, which is very humorous.

As for "article of the year," maybe we should have that later. We can't rush into this too far. By the way, there is already the "Featured Article" which is an honor to have already, and there are awards for users. Maybe we should, in later Awards ceremonies, have election-based or forum-based awarding systems. That would allow everyone to formally voice their opinion and not have one person decide presidentially. C3PO the Dragon Slayer

yes but consider article of the year since this wiki was founded. next year it will be a bit more even. also i think maul yodas articles should be nominated and i will have more categories, not for articles but for spirit, best vandal poacher, best writer and a few more. so stick around!!!- Darth Vacatour

There will be 4 nomines for each category! but only one winner!- darth vacatour

Nominated some. Want to evaluate them? C3PO the Dragon Slayer

Please put your nominations in the nominated opinion section below. read the instructions above C1 to know what to do.

Are you sure that its not too early to be doing this? I would suggest it should be held at the end of the year. -Di&#39;e Go

Wiki Awards Are Rescheduled!!!
Unforutnately due to lack of nominees the Wiki Awards have been rescheduled for Monday June 26th, at the same time 2PM PACIFIC, 3PM MOUNTAIN, 4PM CENTRAL, 5PM EASTERN TIMES. It will still be on my talk page and hosted by me. Please we also need more nominees. At least 3 to 4 for each category and each nominee must be by a diffrent author. Only one author allowed per category. If not ready by monday we will reschdule again. Thank you for your cooperation. - Darth Vacatour

Oh, and for the record, 1PM Alaskan Time and 12PM Haiwaiin Time. MaulYoda

The Wiki Awards
I have moved the awards to a seperate article because I think they are a big enough deal to be on someone's talk page. I hope that is alright. MaulYoda

Wiki Awards Commitee
Good idea Vacatour. As for what it would cover, we should probably include featured article, UOTW, improvement drive, wiki awards, which we should change to monthly, etc. Anyway, I'm in. MaulYoda

yes but the wiki awards are pretty big. i mean user of the week is kind of my only problem. the winner of article of the year should get featured article but user of the week? how about at least like user of the month. or we could do user of the year? Also one of the nominated article that didnt make it and wasn't the best will be the improvement drive. I really think we should either upgrade Article of the year winner to either User of the month or user of the year since its such a big event. Also we need a lot more nominees. At least four for each category and only one Author per each. It wont matter if its a diffrent article the author of that article can only be nominated once per each category- Darth Vacatour

How about the winner of Article of the Year gets the prize of Best Writer? That could be mentioned on something other than User of the Week on the Main Page. C3PO the Dragon Slayer 17:56, 26 June 2006 (UTC)

the article of the year writers may be nominated but there are no guarantees.we need more nominees for each category though!

If we don't have any nominees in just certain categories by Friday, could we drop the categories, but still hold the event? C3PO the Dragon Slayer 20:10, 26 June 2006 (UTC) P.S. Could you sign your name using ~ ? It's easier to tell who wrote the message. Could I join this Wiki Awards Commitee also?

very well C3P0 the dragon slayer is now a part of the Wiki Awards comitee. but before you do anything you must tell me since i am the Wiki Awards Chairman and host for this year! - Darth Vacatour

Agreed. One thing I ask is about the Article of the Year and Best Article. Could these be made the same? Or does Article of the Year imply something different from being the "best," and focus on something different? C3PO the Dragon Slayer 20:36, 27 June 2006 (UTC)
