For the first 21 days of a month, just post the name of the user, and sign under your nomination with your signature.  If someone has already nominated the user you support, just second their nomination using the <nowiki>#</nowiki> symbol.  To find a user's contributions, along with a complete breakdown of the namespaces that they have contributed to, simply enter their name into [[Special:Editcount|the edit count page]].

To keep any one person from sweeping the awards, any editor can only win once. Furthermore, to prevent sockpuppeting and other forms of cheating, only registered users that meet the edit requirement below may vote. If it is discovered that someone is being a poor sport and attempting to sockpuppet, their votes for the current election, as well as the next two, will be negated.
