The annual pageant is a hallowed tradition here at the Review (new members, read this for some background.) Although traditionally, to compete for the grand WP:DICK of Distinction prize, the contestant must be an active admin, we at the Program and Catering Committee have been mulling this over on our sooper-sekrit P&C-L mailing list, and we would like to propose that admins defrocked over the past year should be eligible. First of all, the fact that they were defrocked may mean that they did something Notable. But mainly, we want to put forward the long-overdue nomination of Wild Bill Connolley for this award.

Here are the categories for nomination:

WP:DICK of Distinction -- for all-around rottenness by an admin

The Tag-Team Event

Miss Incongeniality

and for the good guys...

the Straight Shooter award for honest admins

and the Cojones de latón, for the non-admin who has distinguished himself in combat with the cabal

Someone has to nominate Davy Geroid for DoD again, because, well it has to be done. Though he might be more of a cinch for Miss Incongeniality. Besides the already nominated climate doc, Ft2, Jossi and Sammy Blackletter should serve as dishonorable mentions.

I also nominate Misters J. Van B and K. Lokshin for straight shooters.

For Cojones de latón I second Cla's nomination.

OK, I hereby nominate Mr. Gerard. http://wikipediareview.com/index.php?showtopic=27610
