I won't think that a shorter contest is better. It would be unfair against other users who enter here later and still can read that the contest was originally scheduled for eleven months. It may also attract users who think: Becoming bureaucrat within two weeks? Cool, than I edit for two weeks and when I'm a bureaucrat I don't edit anymore. A longer contest is also better to improve this wiki and attract many new users, who keep it alive.
