Reminder: Round 2 of Picture of the Year 2016 is open!
editYou are receiving this message because you voted in R1 of the 2016 Picture of the Year contest.
Dear Novarupta,
Wikimedia Commons is happy to announce that the second round of the 2016 Picture of the Year competition is now open. This year will be the eleventh edition of the annual Wikimedia Commons photo competition, which recognizes exceptional contributions by users on Wikimedia Commons. Wikimedia users are invited to vote for their favorite images featured on Commons during the last year (2016) to produce a single Picture of the Year.
Hundreds of images that have been rated Featured Pictures by the international Wikimedia Commons community in the past year were entered in this competition. These images include professional animal and plant shots, breathtaking panoramas and skylines, restorations of historical images, photographs portraying the world's best architecture, impressive human portraits, and so much more.
There are two total rounds of voting. In the first round, you voted for as many images as you liked. In Round 1, there were 1475 candidate images. There are 58 finalists in Round 2, comprised of the top 30 overall as well as the top #1 and #2 from each sub-category.
In the final round, you may vote for just one or maximal three image to become the Picture of the Year.
Round 2 will end on 20 April 2017, 23:59:59 UTC.
Thanks,

Aircraft by registration country
editYou should note that categories related to aircraft by registration country eg Category:Aircraft registered in France, Category:Aircraft registered in the United Kingdom etc should only contain other categories and not individual files. You have dumped a large number of files into a range of aircraft by registration country categories. This is plain wrong, please reverse them out urgently. Ardfern (talk) 05:22, 18 December 2017 (UTC) By the way, I agree that Category:Images of aircraft without type category is a bad cat, but the files you moved above would be better placed in Category:Aviation files (check needed) if they are not already there (many of them already are).
