Competition Wrap-Up

Thanks to everyone for taking part in the PLS. Obviously this was the first time I have run the PLS and even then only because I was asked to run it by Zombiebaron. While I am aware that this has not been the most successful PLS that we have ever held I hope some good articles have emerged and some enjoyment has been had. Congratulations to the winners and thank you to everyone who was part of helping the PLS to happen, be it through judging or any other means. --ChiefjusticeGameBoy 16:08, October 17, 2011 (UTC)
