<big>'''I cannot stress this enough:'''</big> Please [[WP:BRD|be bold]] and add new scoring criteria yourself if you think of any. I don't touch all admin areas, so I can't know how big of a score everything should get.
As a way to help deal with the backlogs, I ([[User:Grandmasterka]]) would like to propose an informal admin backlog contest. This was inspired by [
The admin backlog contest would take place during an agreed-upon week, or perhaps start and end each consecutive week. The weekly winner would be recognized with a wikicertificate and be acknowledged in the [[Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost|Wikipedia Signpost]]. The totals could be entirely self-reported, or it could be overseen by an admin who would recuse themselves from the contest, and the contest could focus on all areas, or a different area each week.
==Scoring==
Scoring for the admin backlog contest could be as follows (work in progress:)
===Deletions===
*1 point for non-image speedy deletions, or proper removal of a speedy tag.
*3 points for image speedy deletions, or proper removal of a speedy tag (images must be removed from any articles they are in!)
*3 points for every [[Wikipedia:Deletion debates|XfD]] closure.
*5 points for deletion of an image in a fair use backlog.
*5 points for deletion of copyright violations.
*7 points for resolving an image in a fair use backlog without deleting it, including adding a sufficient fair use rationale to an image that was up for deletion.
*
*
===Blocking===
*2 points for each block on [[WP:AIV]].▼

*10 points for properly resolved [[WP:SSP]] reports.
*
*1 point for taking administrative action in response to an [[WP:AN/I]] or [[WP:AN]] thread of any other kind. (i.e. blocking for legal threats reported on AN/I, etc. ''note: only counts for administrative actions that would show up in an administrator log.'' )
*1 point for declining an unblock request after investigating the situation.
*5 points for granting an unblock request after consultation with the blocking admin or on [[WP:ANI]].
===Backlogs===
*3 points for closing a [[WP:3O]] report.

*3 points for making a wording change to a protected template or system message as the result of a [[CAT:PER]] request.
*5 points for making a content change in response to a [[CAT:PER]] request; 3 points for correctly declining a [[CAT:PER]] request.
*−20 points if such a change is later reverted.
*8 points for making a technical change to a high-risk template or system message in response to a [[CAT:PER]] request.
*−30 points if the change has to be reverted because it breaks the template in question.
*−80 points if the change has to be reverted because it breaks the system message and messes up the site.
===Other===
* 3 points for [[WP:ACC|creating an account for another user who can't]].
* 3 points for declining an inappropriate [[WP:ACC]] request.
* 1 point for other administrative action that is not listed here.
==Disqualification==
*Automatic disqualification for being involuntarily desysopped during the contest.
*Automatic disqualification for being a subject of an [[WP:RFAR|arbitration committee case]] regarding one's use of the admin tools.
*Disqualification for [[WP:BITE|newbie-biting]] or gaming the system as a result of this contest. Please tell newbies who visit your talk page about Wikipedia's applicable policies and [[WP:DRV]], if necessary, and be honest with yourself if you deleted something that was obviously worth keeping and someone complains. Remember, this is only a game as a means of lessening Wikipedia's backlogs, and should not trump any of Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.
*Any scoring penalties for reversions obviously do not apply to self-reverts.
