Picture of the Year 2014 Results
Dear Wikimedians,
The 2014 Picture of the Year competition has ended and we are pleased to announce the results:
We shattered participation records this year – more people voted in Picture of the Year 2014 than ever before. In both rounds, 6698 different people voted for their favorite media files.
- In the first round, 4504 people voted for all 983 candidates.
- In the second round, 3824 people voted for the 54 finalists (the R1 top 30 overall and top 2 in each category).
In the second round – the “three votes” system was enabled for the first time this year – eligible users could vote for up to 3 finalists – each of these 3 votes counted equal.
We congratulate the winners of the contest and thank them for creating these beautiful media files and sharing them as freely licensed content:
- 547 people voted for the winner, Two Julia Butterflies (Dryas iulia) drinking the tears of turtles in Ecuador.
- In second place, 416 people voted for An Emperor Penguin (Aptenodytes forsteri) in Antarctica jumping out of the water.
- In third place, 410 people voted for High above Tocopilla, Chile, one of SQMs Boxcabs coasts downhill to the Reverso switchback.
