This sticky explains the correct way to enter.

4. Structure Your Submission
Your entry should include:

© Core Insight / Proposed Solution
State your final idea, model, or theoretical direction.
(d) Supporting Work (optional)

Tier ∞ Honour Roll — the permanent archive for the highest contributions.
