As far as I remember, each country can choose its own rule (within reason obviously).
For instance, to answer Mārtiņš point, in most countries, one person can only be once in the Top 10 but some countries choose to keep the top 10 as it is (multiple photos by the same user or not).

I don't see why a country couldn't exclude non-native if it make sense locally, I'm more curious about how you determine if someone is native or not.

Hi!

We had a similar problem with (2) in a small country (Latvia). A good solution was to set a limit of max 3 images per person in the Top 10. If anyone gets more, these are discarded in favour of the next images in ranking.

Dear everyone,

The WLM Suriname team will soon be evaluating this years competition, and we have two questions we would like to ask your advice on:
1. The winner of this year's competition was not from Suriname, but from the Netherlands. This has caused some criticism from the local community. Is it possible to only accept contributions by natives of Suriname?
2. This year's top ten has 7 pictures from the same uploader. How would we go about avoiding this next year?

Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts!

Best regards,

Michelle van Lanschot
Projectleider
