How to adapt the questions
Replace categories and eligibility wording with the approved contest rules. If an entry is uploaded elsewhere, explain the accepted file or URL process without claiming an unverified upload feature. Use clear question wording and remove any field that is not needed to administer the contest.
Use a printable version
Use the printable version at an in-person community contest or staffed drop-off point. Assign entry IDs, store contact sheets separately from displayed work, and state the deadline and return location. The downloadable file must be the real blank questionnaire; paper answers are not automatically added to online results.

How to interpret responses
First check missing operational fields and unclear eligibility acknowledgments; do not treat this as a score sheet. Limit access to contact details and separate them from public judging materials. Biega et al. (2020) begin their data minimization paper by quoting the GDPR principle that personal data should be “adequate, relevant, and limited to what is necessary.” That principle supports reviewing every requested field, but the paper studies personalization systems and is not legal advice for contest administration.
Frequently asked questions
Can this form judge contest entries?
No. It collects intake information. Use a separate scoring process with published criteria and appropriate reviewer access.
Should every field be required?
Only require information genuinely needed to administer the contest. This example keeps every field optional; final requirements must match the published rules and privacy notice.
Does the acknowledgment grant publication rights?
No. Reading the rules or confirming authority is not a substitute for a reviewed license, release or consent process when one is required.
