Announcements edit

Message 1: announcement edit

Dear Wikimedians,

Wikimedia Commons is happy to announce that the 2008 Picture of the Year competition will be held soon. Any user who is registered at any Wikimedia wiki and has more than 200 edits is invited to vote.

The competition is among the 499 images that became Featured Pictures at Wikimedia Commons between 2008-01-01 and 2008-12-31. There are literally hundreds of beautiful high quality pictures... please help us choose the best one!

Voting will be conducted through a tool on the toolserver (to make it easier to count compared to editing on a wiki). Users can request a voting token on http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Picture_of_the_Year/2008/Voting . You will need to have email enabled for the user account you intend to vote from. You can only vote once, even if you have multiple accounts that meet the edit requirement. The voter log will be public although the actual votes themselves will be private.

There are two rounds of voting. In the first round, you can vote for as many images as you like, regardless of category. In the final (28), you can only vote for one image.

Thanks, Wikimedia Commons Picture of the Year committee http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Picture_of_the_Year/2008

Message 2: voting round 1 open edit

Dear Wikimedians,

The 2008 Wikimedia Commons Picture of the Year competition is now open!

Please visit here to see if you are eligible and get a voting token: http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Picture_of_the_Year/2008/Voting

The images are presented in categories, but you can vote for as many as you like, in as many categories as you like. (The categories are just so you don't have to look at hundreds of images at once.) The top 28 images will make it to the final.

Before you cast your vote, you can preview them all at http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Picture_of_the_Year/2008/Galleries . Voting is open from January 20-27, so please take the time to have your say!

Thanks, Wikimedia Commons Picture of the Year committee http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Picture_of_the_Year/2008

Message 3: voting round 2 (finalists) open edit

Dear Wikimedians,

The final for the 2008 Wikimedia Commons Picture of the Year is now open!

The top 28 images were chosen from the first round. Now, you have just one vote, to help us choose the ultimate Picture of the Year. The finalists are listed here: http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Picture_of_the_Year/2008/Finalists

If you are eligible, you can vote in the final, even if you didn't vote in the first round. Please visit here to see if you are eligible and get a voting token: http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Picture_of_the_Year/2008/Voting

Final voting is only open for 5 days, so be sure to get in quick!

Thanks, Wikimedia Commons Picture of the Year committee http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Picture_of_the_Year/2008
