I'm so entering this. I like that there's no limit, too? Not per individual member  just character/pen name. Which really means you can submit as many unique articles as you wish.
So, if I use myself as an example, Airey Flamsteed could write ONE article, Kurumi Hollingberry could write ONE article, Aron Ashburry-Hawthorne could write ONE article, [insert pen name here] could write ONE article and so on and so on.
Looking forward to your submission(s?)

This looks cool.
I had a question that may sound a little silly, but can student characters from Hogwarts write articles too, or just adults? Thanks in advance!

Must the articles be HP/SS canon or are we allowed to make things up?

Yes your article must follow HP/SS canon (you cannot make up that there is a muggle Headmaster at Hogwarts right now for example) but you still have creative range to create your own news but must be relevant to the current IC year as stated in the rules
