Hello, we've been talking on french WLM mailing list after one member showed that this year was the year the 1 000 000th WLM picture had been uploaded. Taking categories from previous years and counting using csv file from this year (after having excluded irish pictures that were uploaded before 1st septembrer and are still in the csv file), I find that 1 000 000th pictures should be : https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Hel_Dworzec_Kolejowy.JPG
We could argue about unchecked files, files that shouldn't be counted ... and there should be other millionth picture but if everybody agrees I think we should communicate about this specific file as the millionth one. Are there any organizers from Poland on this list that can confirm that this file is ok for their competition so that we can communicate ?
Thanks !
There are some picture in WLM CH uploaded before the start of the contest (which started the 8th September).
We have not excluded them because it will be communicated at the end of the contest the reason of the exclusion.
But there are also some photos "out of scope" (and I suppose not only in WLM CH), it means not representing the list of the objects.
It means that I agree to communicate the 1 million but not the 1000000th photo.

Hi, I checked our Polish lists, and it looks like it's not a registered monument.
ok, these two answers seem to show that the best way is to say we've reached the million mark around 15th september and not try to find the millionth picture :) Thanks for your input.

Announcing a number with no picture would be boring.
Mabye make a mosaic with, say 10 000 images that could be a contender for the millionth, to make a thing about how many they are?

That would be cool for media-related stuff very well. I am looking forward to show this with some post... to mobilize people to use the last week of the contest! Jan Loužek - Aktron Wikimedia Czech Republic ______________________________________________________________

We finally decided in France to blog about the millionth picture and to illustrate the blogpost with a "1000000th picture so far" and use this post to explain that all pictures have to be checked and that there are still pictures that are going to be excluded from the competition because of FOP for example.
Our blogpost is there : http://wikilovesmonuments.fr/2014/09/29/le-cap-du-million-dimages-a-ete-depa...
Enjoy the last 24 hours and good luck for choosing winners !

So I think +5 or -5 images around the millionth mark is fine to pick.

+1

How do you guys work out the nth article on Wikipedia? Can you use the same method?

AFAIK there is always some uncertainty (which comes handy so that you can choose the best picture/article/thing ;o)
C
With a scientific point of view, we can choose whatever is closed to 1M as our milestone, it is hardly reproducible due to number of files being deleted every day.
