Voting for the wikinews picture of the year will start soon (Jan 24
00:00 UTC, for round 1). From the page:

The aim of this idea is to have an election for a Wikinews Picture of
the Year 2008, in an analogy to the Picture of the Year contest on
Commons. With this initiative we would like to promote photojournalism
and quality images with great news value for use on Wikinews and other
Wikimedia projects. This idea is not meant to compete with the
election on Commons (the rules and candidates are totally different)
or criticise Commons in any way, rather it is aimed to promote more
collaboration between Wikinews and Wikimedia photographers.

To vote you need to either:
*Have created a published wikinews article before you cast your vote
*Have an account somewhere (in wikimedia land, not neccesarily
wikinews) with greater than or equal to 50 edits, and created before
Jan 10, 2009

And as well you need to be (rather obviously)
*Not blocked.

We invite all wikimedians to vote.
