Wikipedia:Reward board
The reward board is an informal page where users who want completed a specific task related to Wikipedia (such as the promotion of an article to featured article status or the editing of an image) can offer a reward to editors willing to take on the task. The execution and details of the transaction are the responsibility of the participating parties, and the reward can be monetary, goods (books, cookies, etc.), barnstars, or tit-for-tat editing (like improving another article).
Reward board is similar to the defunct Bounty board; however, instead of a donation to the Wikimedia Foundation, payment is made directly to a specific editor.
The Wikimedia Foundation is not hiring contributors and no payments are made by the Foundation. This is purely a page for editors to offer rewards to other editors. Challenges may remain open for a maximum duration of one year. After that period of time, the challenge will be moved to /Expired requests; however, the author of the challenge may repost the challenge with a new expiration period. The aim of this policy is to keep the board clutter-free, ensure editors are available to fulfill such challenges, and to ensure the challenges are still valid.
See Wikipedia:Conflict of interest for information about monetary compensation and possible conflicts of interest.

The ICC Men's T20 World Cup, formerly the ICC World Twenty20, is a biennial world cup for cricket in Twenty20 International (T20I) format, organised by the International Cricket Council (ICC). It was held in every odd year from 2007 to 2009, and since 2010 has been held in every even year with the exception of 2018 and 2020. In 2018, the tournament was rebranded from the World Twenty20 to the T20 World Cup. Until 2016, both men's and women's tournaments were held together; since 2018 both are held separately but in the same calendar year with the exception of 2018 and 2020–2023.
As of 2026, ten editions have been played; a total of 25 teams have competed and six teams have won the T20 World Cup. India (2007, 2024, 2026) are the most successful team with three titles. West Indies (2012, 2016) and England (2010, 2022) have won it twice, while Pakistan (2009), Sri Lanka (2014), and Australia (2021) have one title each. A total of 15 countries have hosted the tournament (including 6 island nations of the West Indies). India are the current champions, having won their third title in the 2026 edition. The next edition of the tournament will take place in Australia and New Zealand in 2028.

- Requests: Complete or build (in order of urgency/importance; only #1 is super important)—
- The {{Infobox election runoff}} template, based on either {{Infobox election}} or one of its foreign-language variants (Spanish and French have some decent-looking ones). This should include a way to display final/best-round results for each candidate or two-party-preference vote totals, and percentage calculations from raw vote totals.
- {{Election results-STV}} should be edited to include calculations of exhausted ballots in each round, the code should be tidied up a bit, and documentation needed.
- The {{Election box ranked choice}} templates (e.g. {{Election box ranked choice begin}}). These templates should be grouped in a single category, and should be edited to provide a round-by-round breakdown of transfer votes.
- Reward: {{The Technical Barnstar}}, {{The Template Barnstar}}, or {{The Barnstar of Liberty}};
and a bunch of "I voted" stickers (from last time I volunteered at a polling place)I have lost the stickers :( but I can send you some in November if you want - Limit on rewards: None.

Lots of people who cite newspapers.com simply, and incorrectly, link to the full page of a newspaper that comes up from a search in their citations. This makes it difficult to pin down the source and inaccessible to anyone who doesn't have a newspapers.com subscription. So, if you have one (you can get one through the Wikipedia Library), you can instead clip the newspaper article being cited so that the citation is precise and accessible! You'll know you've made a clipping when you can replace the /image URL with a /article URL. A list of pages that needs fixing can be found here.

- I am not personally interested, but it's really interesting to see QPQs be used as a sort of de facto "money" on Wikipedia. You could imagine the creation of some sort of "article improvement credit", where you can get one in the first place by getting a GA (or something), and then spend it by giving it to someone else, who will then improve an article and spend it on an article they want improved. Sort of like changing the barter system (article for article) to a monetary system. Of course, there's probably not enough demand for all that, but it would be fun.

- I am willing to also add QPQs from my bank as a reward for this; leave me a talk page message if you want to claim one! Staraction (talk | contribs) 20:51, 5 October 2025 (UTC)
