2012 Picture of the Year: A pair of European Bee-eaters in Ariège, France.

Dear Wikimedians,

Wikimedia Commons is happy to announce that the 2013 Picture of the Year competition is now open. This year will be the eighth 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 favorite images featured on Commons during the last year (2013) 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 most popular image in each category will continue to the final. In the final round, you may vote for just one image to become the Picture of the Year.

Round 1 will end on 7 February 2014. Click here to learn more and vote »

Thanks,
the Wikimedia Commons Picture of the Year committee

You are receiving this message because you voted in the 2012 Picture of the Year contest.

Your most memorable shot of 2021[edit]

Happy New Year! As always at the beginning of the new year, I'm inviting you to share your most memorable shot of the past year. Which of your photos stood out in 2021? Which image created special memories that you'd like to share with others? On behalf of the Commons Photographers User Group I wish you, your family, and your friends all the best for 2022.

Ukraine - Schaubild Verfassung[edit]

Mit "vor", und auch SVG statt PNG

Hallo, das Schaubild wurde offensichtlich von dir erstellt, also dürftest du auch besonders einfach und schnell eine kleine Änderung vornehmen können. Ich habe mich gefragt, warum der Präsident die Außen- und Verteidigungsminister schlagen sollte, wo die doch z.Z. gute Arbeit leisten. Ein kleines "vor" als Ergänzung wäre also schön. --95.112.170.115 19:11, 21 April 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Ah! Danke für den Hinweis - ich habe gleich auch ein SVG erstellt. Besten Gruß Ziko (talk) 19:48, 21 April 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Quick update on behalf of the Commons Photographers User Group[edit]

Dear member of the Commons Photographers User Group,

I hope you're well and enjoy taking photos for Wikimedia Commons. Here are a couple of quick updates on behalf of our group:

Our next virtual meeting will take place on Saturday, August 27. At this point we have two presentations lined up:

Suitable! Unsuitable! How to choose photos for a Wikipedia for children, “Klexikon” (Ziko)
The aperture and its (less known) effects (XRay)

You can sign up for the event on this page: Virtual Meeting on August 27, 2022. – Given that we can accommodate more speakers, I'll invite you to get in touch with me in case you'd like to present on the 27th. You can reach me any time on my talk page or by sending a quick email.

Also, we now have a page for local events organized by members of our user group: Local events 2022. Please check it out and consider organizing an event yourself!
And finally, we're planning on offering a Post-processing Workshop on October 8. Please save the date; an events page with more information will go up later.

Thanks for being a member of our group and for sharing your works under a free license. Have fun taking pictures!

All the best, --Frank Schulenburg (talk) 15:23, 18 August 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Klexikon[edit]

Hallo Ziko! Deinen Vortrag über Klexikon und insbesondere über die Eignung von Bildern für Klexikon oder Kinder allgemein fand ich sehr spannend. Wie so stelle ich fest, dass einzelne gesellschaftliche Gruppen nicht ausreichend Beachtung finden. Minderjährige (oder auch Leute mit Sehschwierigkeiten) finden bei Wikimedia Commons nicht ausreichend Beachtung. Wie man dieses Problem allerdings löst, ist leider nicht ganz so einfach. Für meine eigenen Bilder habe ich mir etwas einfallen lassen, aber das muss noch reifen. Einen Versuch habe ich mit File:Dülmen, Börnste, Alpakas -- 2020 -- 5462.jpg (das kleine Icon oben rechts) gestartet. Ich bin mir echt nicht sicher, ob so etwas (für mich) ein Weg sein kann. Aus deinen Worten sprach sehr viel Erfahrung, die man nicht so nebenbei aufnehmen kann. Vielleicht schaffen wir es aber, bei Wikimedia Commons etwas anzustoßen. Ich weiß, das ist auch nicht einfach. Die meisten wird es schlicht nicht interessieren. Andere haben schon mit bestehenden Regeln, gesetzlichen Regelungen und lizenztechnischen Dingen zu viel zu tun. Aber trotzdem. Eine einfache Idee fänd ich umsetzbar, auch mit weniger Engagement. Ich denke weiter nach ... --XRay 💬 16:21, 28 August 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Lieber Kollege, danke für deine Worte! Ich denke, dass so eine Kennzeichnung nicht verkehrt wäre. Oder ein anderes System. Leider ist der an sich nachvollziehbare Gedanke von Jimmy Wales damals in der Bildfilter-Debatte untergegangen. Man hätte es mit relativ einfachen Mitteln (Kategorien?) realisieren können. Wir werden sehen, was daraus wird. :-) Ich bleibe auch am Ball. Besten Gruß Ziko van Dijk (talk) 18:49, 30 August 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

You're invited to provide input…[edit]

Dear fellow member of the Commons Photographers User Group,

At our last meeting end of August, we talked about getting in touch with the Wikimedia Foundation and offering our help for improving Wikimedia Commons. Today, I invite you to provide your input on a draft open letter to the Foundation. Over the course of the next ten days, we'll further improve the text together, before inviting people to sign it. If you're interested in providing input, please engage in the discussion on the talk page of the draft.

In the meanwhile, I hope you're well and have a great time taking photos! All the best, --Frank Schulenburg (talk) 08:42, 20 September 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Question from the CPUG Board[edit]

Dear user group member,

I'm writing you to today on behalf of the board of the Commons Photographers User Group. The past year has been a busy one for us. In 2022, we've had more activities than ever before in the history of our group and you'll find an overview on our group's page.

With that being said, 2022 was also a year of learning for the current board members. Most of us hadn't been involved in running the Photographers User Group and we spent quite some time on getting used to our new roles. We all feel it was a steep learning curve.

That's why, at our last board meeting, we decided to ask our members whether they'd be ok with us serving for another year. Extending our board duties to the end of 2023 would allow us to continue the work we've started this year, and to benefit from the knowledge we've built over the past twelve months.

However, in the end, it's up to you and the other members of our group to decide whether such an extension of our board term should be granted. I invite you to voice your opinion on this page:

Commons:Commons Photographers User Group/Board Elections 2022

We'll gather feedback until December 27, and we'll keep you in the loop about the outcomes of this process.

Thanks so much for your ongoing support of our group. I wish you, your family, and your friends all the best.
