Crossword

A Crossword, featuring Featured Articles

Hello! Last month, The Signpost hosted a crossword, which can be found here. The answers to previous crosswords can be found at the following link – thank you all for playing! We have a new crossword for this month – once more, all of the answers have something to do with Wikipedia, though the clues may seem unrelated.

This month's answers are taken from Wikipedia's Featured Articles – every correct answer will be the title of one of the articles listed on that page.

You can play the crossword online at this link (recommended) or manually by printing out the image and clues below. Enjoy! Hints may be given in the comments, so scroll cautiously.

This is a great idea! I am mainly active in topic areas/processes where the average article quality is very low, so it's nice to have a reason to read comprehensive and well-written stuff for a change. 15 (talk) 12:43, 2 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
