Watermarking is just an example of disparate rules that make the
international phase not equal for every country. Besides the watermarking
issue (personally I see it as the less severe issue), there should be a
common set of rules for all the countries contesting. As I've told
previously, there are pictures that do not belong to a monument at all,
countries posting more than ten pictures or providing images of elements of
movable heritage (when the remaining countries only consider immovable
heritage items). Unless the same rules apply to every country (for
providing images for the international phase) the international contest is
definitely flawed (again, it's up to each country organization to set the
rules for the national contests, however, the international one should
follow a single set of common rules).

Same thing here in Brasil.
During WLE some people posted pictures accepting the CC-BY-SA license but
added "All rights reserved" on the watermarks :-)
This is something worth to investigate: they didn't understand (or
didn't notice) the license requirement, or due to laziness left
unchanged the pictures they already had with a watermark on them?
