Dear Wikimedians, Wikimedia Commons is happy to announce that it has now opened the 2009 Wikimedia Commons Picture of the Year competition. Any user registered at a Wikimedia wiki since 2009 or before with more than 200 edits before 16 January 2010 (UTC) is welcome to vote. Nearly 900 images that have been rated Featured Pictures by the international Wikimedia Commons community in the past year are fighting to impress the highest number of voters. From professional animal and plants shots, over breathtaking panoramas and skylines, restorations of historically relevant images, images portraying world's best architecture, maps, emblems and diagrams created with the most modern technology and impressing human portrays, Commons features pictures for all flavours. Two rounds of voting will be held: In the first round, you can vote for as many images as you like. In the final round, when about 20 images are left, you must decide for one image to become the Picture of the Year. Check your eligibility now http://toolserver.org/~pathoschild/accounteligibility/?user=&wiki=&event=9<http://toolserver.org/%7Epathoschild/accounteligibility/?user=&wiki=&event=9> and if you're allowed to vote, you may use one of your accounts for the voting. In Round 1 we have sorted the images into topic categories for your convenience. Feel free to vote for as many images as you like, there's no limit in vote numbers in Round 1. The Round 1 category winners and the top 10 overall will then make it to the final. We're now interested in your opinion which images qualify for being the Picture of the Year 2009. Thanks, Wikimedia Commons Picture of the Year committee http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Picture_of_the_Year/2009 _______________________________________________ Commons-l mailing list common...@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/commons-l _______________________________________________ foundation-l mailing list foundation-l@lists.wikimedia.org Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l
