Welcome to AAPG's inaugural Wiki Write Off! The winning chapter of the Fall 2014 competition will receive a check for $500.
==Instructions==
Each chapter who wishes to participate must:
# Write and post 5 wiki articles to the APPG wiki page on geoscience topics of their choice
# Send an e-mail with the titles of their five articles, the name and address of the chapter, and the names of the students who helped author the articles
# Complete the previous two items no later than 1 December 2014
The articles will be judged by the AAPG Wiki Advisory Board and the AAPG Senior Associate Editor Board. The judges will select one article from all articles submitted to be the winning article based on:
