A little of topic but anyway: Some feedback from the latest Swedish article writing contest using these KISS rules. There were som frustration when people starting making tiny stubs. The rules unfortunatley clearly make an incentive for creating a 200 byte article, which takes almost no time at all, since it gives 5 points. But for the next 800 bytes, which is probably even more than four times the work, it only gives one extra point. How to resolve this mass creation of small stubs and still being simple is not obvious. Perhaps only give the 5 points if the article is at least 2000 bytes perhaps, I do not know.
