The Triple Crown is an award that honours outstanding contributions to Wikipedia, and is given to users who achieve three specific milestones throughout their time as a Wikipedia editor. Higher tiers of the award are available for users who achieve multiple sets of Triple Crowns, and several special and WikiProject-focused Triple Crowns are also awarded.

To be eligible for a Triple Crown, you must satisfy all of the following:

  • WP:TRIPLE
  • WP:TPC
  • Any editor can nominate themselves or others. For the purpose of these awards, a "major contributor" should have substantially written, referenced or overhauled an article. Copyediting, formatting changes or nominating for the good or featured processes is not sufficient in itself. An authorship of 25% or higher than any other editor, as shown by XTools Edit Counter (example), is evidence of this.

    A single article can count for all three categories, if the editor was a major contributor at the time of its appearance at DYK, and both its good and featured promotions. Becoming a major contributor to an article after its promotion will not qualify, unless the work helped prevent the article from losing its good or featured status, such as edits done to address concerns during a featured article review. A "major contributor" to a topic needs to have been a major contributor to at least half of the topic's content; for featured topics they need to have been a major contributor to at least two featured articles within it as well. A topic counts as an additional good or featured item, even if all the individual content within it has already been counted separately for the award.

    Any type of featured content counts toward a Triple Crown. Editors may mix and match different types of featured material when requesting the Imperial Triple Crown Jewels and beyond. For featured pictures, a nominator who is not the original uploader may qualify if they did other significant work that was needed for the picture to become featured, such as image cleanup or description research. Please note that Triple Crowns are awarded in sets. This means that an editor who earned twelve featured pictures, twenty "Did you know" credits, and two good articles will only be eligible for two standard Triple Crowns. Please select submissions accordingly, and thank you for helping Wikipedia.

    Steeplechase Triple Crown
    Was given to a major contributor to at least five of Wikipedia's then six types of featured content. This award is now redundant as the portal and sound features are no longer active, meaning there are only four types of featured content remaining eligible for promotion.

    A unique image was given to each winner
    Golden Steeplechase Triple Crown
    Was awarded for editors who were major contributors to featured content in all six areas. Retired for same reason as above.
