I arbitrarily delclare the first round of voting for the Wikinews
picture of the year to now be open. We have 60 images to choose from
as it stands. Those that receive some votes (probably 2 or more votes)
will be carried on to round 2. The idea is to have a small number of
pictures for round 2 (~10-15). You can vote for as many pictures as
you want [you can even nominate pictures if you feel like it]. We
invite all of Wikimedia (that is all of wikimedia with an edit count
of over 50) to vote. Thanks.
