hello, Kasia! your question prompted our own conversation locally :) we kind of have not thought about it before...
so, our own rules in the WLM Ukraine have two important provisions, though not specific to AI (rules.wlm.photo): 5.1. Фотографії повинні бути виконані Конкурсантами особисто / Photos Photos must not be excessively processed (adding, removing or moving objects; "artistic blur", collages, etc.)should be self-taken by Contestants (...) 5.7. Світлини не мають бути надмірно обробленими (додавання, видалення чи переміщення об'єктів; «художнє розмиття», колажі тощо) / Photos must not be excessively processed (adding, removing or moving objects; "artistic blur", collages, etc.) ideally they would allow us even now to disqualify any "generated photo by AI", as it would not be "reflecting reality", while allowing us to accept pictures "moderately enhanced by AI powered tools" if the end product is useful for illustrating Wikipedia. but we might still add something to the rules just to be on the safe side now, from what I see, a sister photo contest, Wiki Loves Earth International follows the same logic (Commons:Wiki_Loves_Earth_2024/Rules <https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Wiki_Loves_Earth_2024/Rules>) in FAQs: *Can I use Photoshop or a similar program to post-process my photos before submitting them? Can I edit photos with AI?* You can use Photoshop or similar editing programs. The photos can be edited or processed using any software. But please avoid the temptation to overprocess. If the photo is fully AI-generated, it will surely be disqualified. Please try not to upload such images for the contest. You can upload slightly AI-edited images, but do not overprocess them: this is a photographic contest, not a computer art one. WLE Ukraine added a note to their provision about photos being self-taken ( https://ua.wikimedia.org/wiki/Вікі_любить_Землю_2024/Регламент#cite_ref-2): [2] Зокрема на конкурс заборонено подавати зображення, згенеровані інструментами генеративного штучного інтелекту. Для перевірки цієї вимоги оргкомітет залишає за собою право попросити надати оригінал фотографії у форматі RAW у авторів світлин, котрі претендують на перемогу у викладених у пп. 7.1. номінаціях / In particular, it is forbidden to submit images generated by generative artificial intelligence tools to the competition. In order to verify this requirement, the organising committee reserves the right to ask the authors of the photographs to submit the original photo in RAW format for the works participating in categories in 7.1 hope that helps!
