The Cyclone Cup is an experimental game for the members of WikiProject Tropical cyclones and the Non-tropical storms task force of WikiProject Weather. In the game, participants compete against one another to rack up points by creating/promoting/reviewing articles related to the projects. The goals of the game are to teach new users how to promote articles to GA, FA, or FL, expand the scope of the projects, and reduce the amount of wikiwork. The competition begins on January 20 and ends on November 1. There are four rounds and two judges.
