Interesting reading, thanks for that analysis. I do prefer US-oriented news (like the NYtimes most-emailed-list) above other English, and I prefer NL Dutch above other English, so I guess it makes sense.
I find strange that it is used for showing news intended for one or other countries. The accept-language header should not be used to determine the locale [1] (or at least not be the sole way to do it). But if that config is ok for you, just use it. Just be aware of the semantics.

The odd thing I asked myself was if my answers would have been different in English... I suppose my experience with uploading the US images was significantly different from uploading the Dutch ones, just because the identifier lookup method was so different.
We expected you to talk about both your Dutch and US experiences :) I guess there may be some bias there for multi-country uploaders.
I took a look and we currently have 156 people claimng to have uploaded from several countries out of 1293 answers.
In some cases they are claiming where it's only one: "it,other | Italia", "ar,other | Argentina", "nl,other | Nederland". In others I wonder how they managed to choose "Ukraine" (written just above "United States") fill "other" (written just below) and yet not see the United States checkbox: "ua,other | United States". Maybe they thought they were clicking "United States". :/
Other people may have thought we asked about the photos uploaded to Commons or the photos they had in their computers, instead of WLM ones: "ca,fr,de,it,es,ua,us,other | Grèce, DOM (France) , Turquie , Portugal"
We also had three people marking the 35 countries (and another, 32). I am a bit skeptical of those. Can anyone translate «Dla wszystkich, które chciałyby skorzystać (co wiąże się z licencją cc by-sa)» ?
Great results!! How many responses did we get last year?
After removing duplicates, 784. We will easily double that.
