Dear Wikimedians,
The 2018 Picture of the Year competition has ended and we are pleased to announce the
results:
In both rounds, people voted for their favorite media files.
* In the first round, there were 963 candidate images.
* In the second round, people voted for the 57 finalists (the R1 top 30 overall and
top 2 in each category).
In the second round – the “three votes” was used – eligible users could vote for up to 3
finalists – each of these 3 votes counted equal. There were 2983 people who voted in R1
and 3496 who voted in round R2.
We congratulate the winners of the contest and thank them for creating these beautiful
media files and sharing them as freely licensed content:
