AoPSWiki has an Article of the Day (AoTD) system, which recognizes the articles on the AoPSWiki which cover mathematical topics most comprehensively and accurately.

The AotDs are picked by the administrators of the AoPSWiki, but members can suggest AotDs by leaving a message on the talk page of either azjps or Temperal.

You can include the current AotD on your userpage with
