Finest Posts of IL

Hello IL’ites

Today, we are announcing a initiative called “Finest Posts of IL” with which we want to celebrate members for the quality of their contributions to IL Forums! Our moderators Kamla and Vidya will be hosting this initiative (Thanks Kamla/Vidya!). [**update** - Soaring Spirit has backfilled Vidya in hosting this initiative] Through this initiative, we will pick a post that you all consider as one of the finest posts of IL. And we will do this every month.

What is finest Posts of IL?
It is an initiative to reward the best contributors at IL. Members of IL will make nominations for the best contributions in this site. Super Moderators running the Finest Post initiative will pick the best among the nominations as the finest post of IL.


Here is how the initiative will work:

• Every month, Kamla and Vidya will start a thread to receive nominations for “Finest Posts of IL”
• As you read the forum and come across a post that is impressive, nominate it for “Finest Posts of IL” in the nomination thread. There is a limit to the number of posts that you can nominate - upto 4 nominations by a member in a month.
• At the end of the month Kamla and Vidya (and rest of the moderators) will review the nominations and announce a post as one of the “Finest Posts of IL”.
• The member who made the winning post will
  • Receive a special Gift
  • Will have a special mention in their signature about their achievement
• The member who nominated the winning post will receive an Indusladies T-Shirt! If more than one member nominate the winning post, the first person to nominate will get the IL-T Shirt.

What posts are eligible?

• The nomination can be a
  • Post in the forum
  • Thread (in essence the first post of that thread)
• The nominated post should be written by the poster herself/himself. You can’t nominate posts from forwarded messages and jokes, games or posts that are cut and pasted from other sites.
• Articles and middles published in other newspapers or magazines are not eligible for nomination.
• The post that you are nominating could have been posted anytime in the past. It doesn’t have to be a post that is made in the month for which you are nominating.

• It could also be a great piece of writing - fiction, non-fiction, poem, song, etc.
