Your Most Memorable Shot Submission!
[edit]Hello George_Chernilevsky!


As we step into a new year, we’re happy to invite you to take part in “Your Most Memorable Shot 2025.”
Since 2018, photographers from across the Wikimedia community have come together at the beginning of each year to share the photographs that meant the most to them over the past twelve months. Now in its eighth iteration, this tradition continues to be a space for reflection, storytelling, and celebrating meaningful moments through photography.
Whether you are a member of the Commons Photographers User Group or not, you are warmly welcome to participate and invite others too. Every image carries a story, and your perspective helps enrich this collective showcase.
Whenever you’re ready, please select your most cherished photograph from 2025 and share it on the designated page.
The deadline for submissions is 28 February 2026, so we hope you’ll join us before then.
We look forward to discovering the moments that made your year memorable and to continuing this wonderful tradition together.
Warm regards, -- Suyash Dwivedi (💬) 22:36, 4 January 2026 (UTC) (CPUG)

Hi, George!
[edit]Nice to talk with you again, I realize that you are indeed a resistant in Commons and FPC! In Portugal, we don't adhere to the practice of the Spanish-speaking countries of calling people by the penultimate surname, which is the father's name there. For us, the father's names (sometimes there are more than one) are the last. In my case, Alves Gaspar comes from my father. Professionally, I was more often called "Gaspar", but things are changing rapidly here, with most people using the first name to address both friends and colleagues. -- Alvesgaspar (talk) 14:05, 29 January 2026 (UTC)
- Thanks, Joaquim!
- That's nice to know.
- In the professional environment of my programming colleagues, my nick is "Grandfather" since 2015.
- Very friendly, George -- George Chernilevsky talk 14:58, 29 January 2026 (UTC)
- Ahahah! And are you indeed a grandfather? I am (2 boys)! Alvesgaspar (talk) 16:53, 29 January 2026 (UTC)

Round 1 of Picture of the Year 2025 voting is open!
[edit]
Dear Wikimedian,
Wikimedia Commons is happy to announce that the 2025 Picture of the Year competition is now open. This year is the twentieth edition of the annual Wikimedia Commons photo competition, which recognizes exceptional contributions by users on Wikimedia Commons. Wikimedia users are invited to vote for their favourite images featured on Commons during the last year (2025) to produce a single Picture of the Year.
Hundreds of images that have been rated Featured Pictures by the international Wikimedia Commons community in the past year are all entered in this competition. These images include professional animal and plant shots, breathtaking panoramas and skylines, restorations of historical images, photographs portraying the world's best architecture, impressive human portraits, and so much more.
For your convenience, we have sorted the images into topical categories. Two rounds of voting will be held: In the first round, you may vote for as many images as you like. The top 30 overall and the top 5% of most popular images in each category will continue to the final. In the final round, you may vote for just five images to become the Picture of the Year.
Round 1 will end on UTC.

Announcing the Winners of Picture of the Year 2025!
[edit]Hi everyone,
Wikimedia Commons is pleased to finally announce the winners of this year's Picture of the Year 2025 contest! We had some truly incredible finalists to choose from, but the community has spoken.
Here are your top three winning images:
-
First place: The aftermath of an Israeli airstrike in Gaza City on October 9, 2023, leaving widespread destruction in the Rimal area.
Attribution: WAFA (Q2915969) / CC-BY-SA 3.0 -
Second place: Baby cape fur seal (Arctocephalus pusillus) sleeping at Cape cross, Namibia.
Attribution: Giles Laurent / CC-BY-SA 4.0
You can view the full results and see where all your favorite images placed here: Full 2025 Results
I also want to highlight what an incredible turnout we had. In the second round, we saw a massive jump in both the number of users voting and the total votes cast. We had exactly 13,979 votes cast by 3,509 users! To put that in perspective, last year we had 7,403 votes from 2,837 users. It is amazing to see that level of growth and community engagement.
Thank you to everyone who voted, helped organize, and generally made the contest such a huge success this year!
Regards,
ZI Jony

Commons Photographers: Our next meeting (05/2026)
[edit]Dear member of the Commons Photographers User Group,
I hope you’re well and enjoy your time as a photographer on Wikimedia Commons. In my role of the new chair of the user group, I have a couple of updates to share with you.
After the election, the new board met for the first time on March 21 and immediately got to work. We elected the organization’s officers and decided to move from quarterly to monthly board meetings. We believe meeting more frequently will create more opportunities to serve our members effectively and help move the group forward.
We also successfully applied for a pre-conference at the upcoming Wikimania in Paris (July 21–25). If you’re planning to attend the conference, please consider joining us on July 21th for a day full of conversations about photography and Commons. Please sign up here if you’re interested.
And finally, it’s my pleasure to invite you to our first online meeting, which will take place on May 31. Our member Wojciech, an experienced concert photographer, will give a talk on photographing orchestras during live performances. I’m especially excited that we’ll have the opportunity to meet online again and am very much looking forward to this event.
Please feel free to sign up for our first meeting in 2026 on this page: Online Meeting on May 31st.
In the meanwhile, I hope you're well and have a great time taking photos!
All the best, --Frank Schulenburg (talk) 14:09, 20 May 2026 (UTC)

- Hello,
- good job! -- George Chernilevsky talk 06:38, 18 June 2026 (UTC)
- Thanks, but apparently Микола Василечко doesn't agree. He switched from Matsyuk to Matsiuk and didn't even bother to move the files over. Then he created a sloppy Wikidata entry with no claim. I can't work with people like this so I'll stay away from Ukraine related images in future. Geoffroi 16:27, 18 June 2026 (UTC)

Invitation to the Wikimedia Commons Pre-Conference at the Wikimania 2026
[edit]Hello George Chernilevsky,

I want to invite you to participate at our Wikimedia Commons Pre-Conference at the Wikimania in Paris on July 21. If you want to join the pre-conference, please sign up on this page until July 7. Participation at the pre-conference is also possible without a ticket for the Wikimania. If you sign up before the deadline on July 7, you will get free access to the pre-conference day. Unfortunately, online participation will not be possible.
If you have something you want to present or you want to talk about at the pre-conference, please add it here, also until July 7.
There is also a service announcement for all photographers coming to Paris: Unfortunately, France has no freedom of panorama at all. Therefore, Commons does not accept photos of modern buildings, public art or light installations at night. Read more about the problem here.
Besides the invitation to our pre-conference, there is another announcement: We updated the membership list of the Commons Photographers User Group. The membership list is much smaller now and based on a template. This allows us to easily create message lists and statistics. Please have a look at your entry in the list and update it if needed.
Happy photographing! GPSLeo (talk) --MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 19:10, 2 July 2026 (UTC)
