thanks for your suggestion. Yes, we could do that. However, I would like it really a lot if we keep everything as simple as possible. Right now we have four simple rules - that means that adding one more rule is 25% more rules - is that worth it? Of course it speaks for itself that the jury will consider watermarked images as significantly worse quality. But why would we want to forbid people to upload them? Commons accepts them too, although they do reserve the right to remove the watermarks.

Hi.
Last day I noticed that we could add some rules to the contest, there are a content rules to apply to images on wikis that we can add to our rules. That rules say that free images should not be watermarked, distorted or have any credits in the image itself. We could add to this rules that the images should not have a frame, all this will make that uploaded images could be used directly in wiki articles and make them more "standarized".

What do you say?.
