For the full rules clarifying what points can be awarded for, see Wikipedia:2024 Developing Countries WikiContest/Scoring. However, the spirit of the rules is more important than the letter, and the coordinators reserve the right to deny points to anyone gaming the system, as well as to remove persistently problematic users from the contest.
