Frequently asked questions (FAQs)

When will it start?

  • Round 1 will begin on and end on
  • Round 2 will begin on and end on

Which pictures are eligible for the contest?

All pictures selected and remaining as Featured pictures during 2023 are eligible for Round 1. The most popular images from Round 1 will continue to Round 2.

Will my vote from beta-testing be counted, if I am eligible?

Yes, as long as the vote is valid (meaning we can identify the picture you have voted for, the picture was not added to the gallery by a mistake or vandalism and no error occurred). You can check all your votes in your contributions.

Am I allowed to vote after the voting period is over?

Your vote can't be counted if you voted after the voting period is over. Voting pages are frozen after the voting period ends. We won't punish voting after the voting period with a block or other administrative action, but your vote may be reversed.

Are there results for contest before a round ends?

No. We don't want the results to influence voters and cause a more significant impact of an early lead. We will publish all the voting statistics after a round ends. You may however analyze the candidate vote pages yourself in whichever method you like, but we are strongly against publishing such results before the end of the round.

Who is running the contest?

Have a look at the Committee page.
