:'''''The votes have been counted and the contest is now closed'''''

On March 4, 2007, a new website devoted to [[Marilyn Manson]] saw the light of day. [[MansonWiki]] was born. And as with all things newly born it was small, and let's be honest, not very beautiful. Over the past five years however, MansonWiki has grown to a full-sized fansite, with over 2600 articles, 5770 images, exactly 2507 registered members and loads of devoted visitors, fans and friends <small>[[Special:Statistics|(source)]]</small>.

What better way to celebrate than to give away free stuff?

== The contest ==

MansonWiki's 5th Anniversary Contest is simple: '''wish us a happy birthday in an original way'''.

Contributions may be of any form of shape, as long as they wish MansonWiki a happy birthday. This includes photos, songs, videoclips, poems, etch-a-sketch drawings, mudcakes or anything you're good at. Let your inner artist go!



Post your contributions on our <big>'''[http://www.facebook.com/MansonWiki MansonWiki Facebook PAGE]'''</big> (so '''''NOT''''' our profile's wall, because we're at the limit of friend requests and don't want to shut out anyone). Seriously. Post it on the page linked above.



The winner will be decided by counting the amount of likes your contribution gets. Let your friends vote for you, let other fans vote for you, make sure that your creation does not go unnoticed.

The contest '''closes''' at the end of sunday the 4th. To account for all timezones, this effectively means ''Tuesday 6 March, 10 am (UTC / GMT)''.

Voting will end 48 hours later, on Thursday 8 March (again at 10 am UTC/GMT), to give you a chance to spread the word and gather some votes.
