In Estonia, I think we have always published the names of jury members (or
in some cases, their wiki names) in all of the article and image
competitions we've had over the last 10+ years. At least any exceptions
don't come to my mind. So I don't see a problem with the expectation that

Last year we did publish an overview of how the evaluation/selection
process was organised (in Ukrainian): http://wlm.org.ua/top123_2019/ while
introducing top 123 pictures of the last round (as it was published before
announcing our top 10). I think it also helped to engage people on social
media,
Dear effe,
I consider that Paulo's point is very important to be remembered. A poor
quality jury results in the best images not being selected.
I remember that at a WLM event, the organizer came up with the wonderful
idea of using Facebook likes to choose the best photos. The result was that

Hi Mykola,
I would encourage WLX Jury Tool to follow suit and provide a similar option
to give easy openness to its users. There is no obligation to use either or
any tool. This overview is just a convenient way to make it easier for
organizers to be transparent.

Hi all,
while I appreciate the efforts of providing examples, I don't think we need
to dig deep into negative claims about previous competitions. This risks
going to the level of gossip-speculation (you're explaining your own
interpretation of what happened) and potentially harms individuals who a
Hi Lodewijk,
As we intend to use WLX Jury Tool and not Montage in Ukraine, what is expected
from us?
We always publish the list of our jury members here: http://wlm.org.ua/juri/ ,
you can see all our jury members between 2012 and 2019. The 2020 list is still
being finalised as we are still wait
Well, the story he told WMF, who believed it hook, line and sinker, was
that in the country it was very difficult to find professional
photographers to be part of the jury (it always is, everywhere, I believe
:P ) and that it would make a great difference there, giving more
credibility to the conte
Well, sounds like a horror story. I would personally never agree to get
monetary reimbursement for participating in a WLM or a WLE jury.
Best regards

Hi Paulo,
I have difficulties parsing your post. For Russia, after we had serious
issues with Wikimedia.ru (who, for example, at some point wanted to
interfere with the decisions of the jury) we converged to symbolic prizes
which we essentially buy out of our own pocket and send them using our own
Forgot to say, but I'm one of the organizers of WLM for WM Portugal.
As for corruption, I must say back in 2016 or around it I was contacted
offwiki on Facebook by a WLE/WLM organizer, enticing me to organize WL in
Portugal, and teaching how to milk the cow. That's how bad the situation
was. I'm g
Hello,
In WLM since 2019 we are totally transparent about the jury members that
help on montage, and usually thank them for their precious help at our blog
post about the competition. Since last year, we have been exchanging jurors
with Tuscany and Wiki Classics, and had a lot of help from Brazil.
