Category Information
- The numbers in parentheses next to each category below represent the number of questions in the pool for that category. The first number represents the number of approved questions; the second number represents the number of as yet unapproved questions. When you submit a question, this unapproved question count should be bumped up, although you may need to reload the page to see the change.
- Question categories "in the making" are not necessarily guaranteed ever to accrue enough questions to open; that depends on you readers. I'll make up my own questions now and again, particularly for those categories that have a lot of promise and momentum.
Submission Guidelines
- Obviously, submitted questions should have correct answers. If there is even the slightest room for doubt, double check your answer before submitting.
- Questions should be "comfortably challenging" for those somewhat familiar with the topic.
- Questions should ideally have four or five answer choices (including the correct answer), but more or less is perfectly acceptable if the question warrants it.
- Difficulty level can be adjusted by varying the number of alternative answers.
- Do not submit copyrighted material. By submitting a question, you are indicating that the submitted material is in the public domain, or, if the material is your own work, that you are releasing it into the public domain.
- We reserve the right to edit or reject questions as we see fit.
