Other featured candidates:
Featured picture candidates Featured picture candidates are images that the community will vote on, to determine whether or not they will be highlighted as some of the finest on Commons. This page lists the candidates to become featured pictures. The picture of the day images are selected from featured pictures. Old candidates for Featured pictures are listed here. There are also chronological lists of featured pictures: 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024 and current month.

Formal things[edit]Nominating[edit]Guidelines for nominators[edit]Please read the complete guidelines before nominating. This is a summary of what to look for when submitting and reviewing FP candidates:
Artworks, illustrations, and historical documents[edit]There are many different types of non-photographic media, including engravings, watercolors, paintings, etchings, and various others. Hence, it is difficult to set hard-and-fast guidelines. However, generally speaking, works can be divided into three types: Those that can be scanned, those that must be photographed, and those specifically created to illustrate a subject. Works that must be photographed include most paintings, sculptures, works too delicate or too unique to allow them to be put on a scanner, and so on. For these, the requirements for photography, below, may be mostly followed; however, it should be noted that photographs which cut off part of the original painting are generally not considered featurable. Works that may be scanned include most works created by processes that allow for mass distribution − for instance, illustrations published with novels. For these, it is generally accepted that a certain amount of extra manipulation is permissible to remove flaws inherent to one copy of the work, since the particular copy – of which hundreds, or even thousands of copies also exist – is not so important as the work itself. Works created to serve a purpose include diagrams, scientific illustrations, and demonstrations of contemporary artistic styles. For these, the main requirement is that they serve their purpose well. Provided the reproduction is of high quality, an artwork generally only needs one of the following four things to be featurable:
Digital restorations must also be well documented. An unedited version of the image should be uploaded locally, when possible, and cross-linked from the file description page. Edit notes should be specified in detail, such as "Rotated and cropped. Dirt, scratches, and stains removed. Histogram adjusted and colors balanced." Photographs[edit]On the technical side, we have focus, exposure, composition, movement control and depth of field.
On the graphic elements we have shape, volume, color, texture, perspective, balance, proportion, noise, etc.
You will maximise the chances of your nominations succeeding if you read the complete guidelines before nominating. Video and audio[edit]Please nominate videos, sounds, music, etc. at Commons:Featured media candidates. Set nominations[edit]If a group of images are thematically connected in a direct and obvious way, they can be nominated together as a set. A set should fall under one of the following types:
Simple tutorial for new users[edit]Adding a new nomination[edit]If you believe that you have found or created an image that could be considered valuable, with appropriate image description and licensing, then do the following. Step 1: copy the image name into this box, after the text already present in the box, for example, Commons:Featured picture candidates/File:Your image filename.jpg. Then click on the "create new nomination" button. All single files: For renominations, simply add /2 after the filename. For example, Commons:Featured picture candidates/File:Foo.jpg/2
All set nomination pages should begin "Commons:Featured picture candidates/Set/", e.g. "Commons:Featured picture candidates/Set/My Nomination".
Step 3: manually insert a link to the created page at the top of Commons:Featured picture candidates/candidate list: Click here, and add the following line to the TOP of the nominations list:
Galleries and FP categories: Please add a gallery page and section heading from the list at Commons FP galleries. Write the code as Page name#Section heading. For example: Optional: if you are not the creator of the image, please notify them using Note: Do not add an 'Alternative' image when you create a nomination. Selecting the best image is part of the nomination process. Alternatives are for a different crop or post-processing of the original image, or a closely related image from the same photo session (limited to 1 per nomination), if they are suggested by voters. Voting[edit]Editors whose accounts have at least 10 days and 50 edits can vote. Everybody can vote for their own nominations. Anonymous (IP) votes are not allowed. You may use the following templates:
You may indicate that the image has no chance of success with the template {{FPX|reason - ~~~~}}, where reason explains why the image is clearly unacceptable as a FP. The template can only be used when there are no support votes other than the one from the nominator. A well-written review helps participants (photographers, nominators and reviewers) improve their skills by providing insight into the strengths and weaknesses of a picture. Explain your reasoning, especially when opposing a candidate (which has been carefully selected by the author/nominator). English is the most widely understood language on Commons, but any language may be used in your review. A helpful review will often reference one or more of the criteria listed above. Unhelpful reasons for opposing include:
Remember also to put your signature (~~~~). Featured picture delisting candidates[edit]Over time, featured picture standards change. It may be decided that for some pictures which were formerly "good enough", this is no longer the case. This is for listing an image which you believe no longer deserves to be a featured picture. For these, vote:
This can also be used for cases in which a previous version of an image was promoted to FP, but a newer version of the image has been made and is believed to be superior to the old version, e.g. a newly edited version of a photo or a new scan of a historical image. In particular, it is not intended for replacing older photos of a particular subject with newer photos of the same subject, or in any other case where the current FP and the proposed replacement are essentially different images. For these nominations, vote:
If you believe that some picture no longer meets the criteria for FP, you can nominate it for delisting, copying the image name into this box, after the text already present in the box: In the new delisting nomination page just created you should include:
After that, you have to manually insert a link to the created page at the top of Commons:Featured picture candidates/candidate list. As a courtesy, leave an informative note on the talk page(s) of the original creator, uploader(s), and nominator with a link to the delisting candidate. {{subst:FPC-notice-removal}} can be used for this purpose. Featured picture candidate policy[edit]General rules[edit]
Featuring and delisting rules[edit]A candidate will become a featured picture in compliance with following conditions:
The delisting rules are the same as those for FPs, with voting taking place over the same time period. The rule of the 5th day is applied to delisting candidates that have received no votes to delist, other than that of the proposer, by day 5. The FPCBot handles the vote counting and closing in most cases, current exceptions are candidates containing multiple versions of the image as well as FPXed and withdrawn nominations. Any experienced user may close the requests not handled by the bot. For instructions on how to close nominations, see Commons:Featured picture candidates/What to do after voting is finished. Also note that there is a manual review stage between when the bot has counted the votes and before the nomination is finally closed by the bot; this manual review can be done by any user familiar with the voting rules. Above all, be polite[edit]Please don't forget that the image you are judging is somebody's work. Avoid using phrases like "it looks terrible" and "I hate it". If you must oppose, please do so with consideration. Also remember that your command of English might not be the same as someone else's. Choose your words with care. Happy judging… and remember… all rules can be broken. See also[edit]

- You have created a beautiful map, but unfortunately a mobile phone is not the best way to digitize such a work for FP, since it creates very sharp contrasts and artifacts that are ruining you work and the resolution is also rather low. If you have something flat like this, it's often better to use a scanner with high resolution so that the details can be appreciated. Also the long text here should be on the file page, not the nomination. An explanation like that should be where people can find it easily and read it. This nom will be archived in a week or so and almost no one will see it. Did you write the text yourself, or did you use AI/ChatGPT or something? I'm asking because the length and the words of it are similar to what we have seen here before. --Cart (talk) 09:05, 11 June 2024 (UTC)
- Unfortunately I don't have the map available for the scanner, furthermore the format would be too large to be scanned anyway, so I simply photographed and placed the verticals and horizontals straight, and it wasn't easy either.I added the text in the description. It is a text, but not composed with artificial intelligence, only translated with Google Translate.

- Ever heard of the phrase "separate the art from the artist"? Wolverine XI 19:05, 10 June 2024 (UTC)
- Adding onto that, the deletion request seems to be leaning towards {{Keep}}, which some users that regularly participate in FPC have opposed its deletion, so I wouldn't worry too much about that. Just my two cents. Also, I apologize if I wasn't supposed to use the Keep template. WildMouse76 (talk) 19:27, 10 June 2024 (UTC)
- Ever heard of the phrase "separate the art from the artist"? Wolverine XI 19:05, 10 June 2024 (UTC)
- WildMouse76, you should listen to your better angels. ;-) The phrase 'Keep' has been turned into text instead of the blue dot, since it is a voting symbol and shouldn't be used in other cases. It may screw up the counting for FPC Bot. --Cart (talk) 21:14, 10 June 2024 (UTC)
- WildMouse76, these are two separate things. In the deletion request, we're discussing ways to prevent Commons from passively enabling copyleft trolling, and the two proposed solutions (deletion and forced watermarking) have serious side-effects that need to be considered. Here, there's no side-effect to not promoting a couple of 10 year-old pictures of common bids. On the other hand, by promoting them we'll be actively helping companies such as Pixsy (and the photographers that engage their services) in extorting users by exploiting a loophole in Creative Commons licences. Julesvernex2 (talk) 08:34, 11 June 2024 (UTC)
- Please see my comment here. I don't have a problem with Commons FP voters opposing and linking to the DR but it is completely unacceptable on a WMF platform to make potentially libellous claims about illegal activity by named individuals ("extortion" is a crime, not a word to be casually flung about in writing). I know that on Twitter people can't help making a point without reminding the universe how horrible the horrible people are, but we're here to review which are our finest pictures. To the extent that licensing enforcement becomes an concern for that, we need to be restrained in our remarks. I hope that is clear, but if not please discuss on the DR. -- Colin (talk) 16:40, 11 June 2024 (UTC)

- WildMouse76, these are two separate things. In the deletion request, we're discussing ways to prevent Commons from passively enabling copyleft trolling, and the two proposed solutions (deletion and forced watermarking) have serious side-effects that need to be considered. Here, there's no side-effect to not promoting a couple of 10 year-old pictures of common bids. On the other hand, by promoting them we'll be actively helping companies such as Pixsy (and the photographers that engage their services) in extorting users by exploiting a loophole in Creative Commons licences.

- WildMouse76, you should listen to your better angels. ;-) The phrase 'Keep' has been turned into text instead of the blue dot, since it is a voting symbol and shouldn't be used in other cases. It may screw up the counting for FPC Bot. --Cart (talk) 21:14, 10 June 2024 (UTC)

- Info Northwest view upwards to the pediment, rotunda, and dome of the California State Capitol in Sacramento. I wanted to make the bright dome stand out well against a dark blue sky. The camera location was about 30 meters away from the building. Perspective distortion correction has been applied, more would look unnatural. What do you think, is the chosen gallery Architectural elements#Others appropriate or should Architecture/Exteriors#United States be chosen instead? I was a bit unsure, thanks in advance for your feedback. Created, uploaded and nominated by -- Radomianin (talk) 04:49, 8 June 2024 (UTC)
- Support The view upwards to the pediment and the dome with the flags in front of it was particularly impressive to me. -- Radomianin (talk) 04:49, 8 June 2024 (UTC)
- Support Perfect symmetry, interrupted only by the banners proudly fluttering in the breeze, beautiful lateral light which emphasizes the three-dimensionality of the sculptures, great blue/white contrast which is, again, broken only by the banners. As the photo shows big parts of the building, I would favour Architecture/Exteriors#United States. – Aristeas (talk) 07:28, 8 June 2024 (UTC)

I don't want to criticize your work, it's just curiosity. --Terragio67 (talk) 01:43, 9 June 2024 (UTC)
- Thank you very much, Terragio67. My aim was to capture all the details of the white facade's structures in the bright light and contrast them well against a dark blue sky. A narrower aperture and longer exposure resulted in blown highlights and less detail on the white facade. In addition, I didn't have a tripod with me at the time. I took quite a few shots of this detail also at other ISO settings. But there are only three left because I deleted the most useless ones. Best, -- Radomianin (talk) 05:05, 9 June 2024 (UTC)

- Info Thousands of gulls come to this beach just after high tide this time of year, just after all the horseshoe crabs have come ashore to lay their eggs. It's a feeding frenzy spectacle. At one point, something spooked them and they took to the air. We were standing out on a mud flat at the time and it sort of felt like they were circling us -- very loud and kind of surreal (and somehow we escaped without getting anything falling on us). This is my effort at capturing the chaotic moment, quickly snapping five frames for a panorama. The vast majority of these birds are laughing gulls (Leucophaeus atricilla), but there are several herring gulls, too, as well as Canada geese and mallards. all by — Rhododendrites talk | 02:56, 8 June 2024 (UTC)

Closing a featured picture promotion request
[edit]The bot
[edit]Note that the description below is for manual closure, this is mostly not needed anymore as there exists a bot (FPCBot) that counts the votes and handles the process below. However after the bot has counted the votes a manual review step is used to make sure the count is correct before the bot again picks up the work.
Manual procedure
[edit]Any experienced user may close requests.
- In Commons:Featured picture candidates/candidate list click on the title/link of the candidate image, then [edit].
Add the result of the voting at the bottom (on a new line with a space first)
(for example see Commons:Featured picture candidates/File:The Bridge (August 2013).jpg). See also {{FPC-results-reviewed}}.
{{FPC-results-reviewed|support=x|oppose=x|neutral=x|featured=("yes" or "no")|gallery=xxx (leave blank if "featured=no")|sig=~~~~}} - Also edit the title of the candidate image template and add after the image tag
featured or not featured
For example:
=== [[:File:XXXXX.jpg]] ===
becomes
=== [[:File:XXXXX.jpg]], featured === - Save your edit.
- If it is featured:
- Add the picture to the list of the four most recently featured pictures of an appropriate gallery of Commons:Featured pictures, list as the first one and delete the last one, so that the number is four again.
- Also add the picture to the appropriate gallery and section of Commons:Featured pictures, list. Click on the most appropriate link beneath where you just added it as one of the four images. An image should only appear ONE time in the galleries. After a successful nomination, the image can be placed in several of the Featured pictures categories.
- Add the template {{Assessments|featured=1}} to the image description page.
- If it was an alternative image, use the subpage/com-nom parameter: For example, if File:Foo.jpg was promoted at Commons:Featured picture candidates/File:Bar.jpg, use {{Assessments|featured=1|com-nom=Bar.jpg}}
- If the image is already featured on another wikipedia, just add featured=1 to the Assessments template. For instance {{Assessments|enwiki=1}} becomes {{Assessments|enwiki=1|featured=1}}
- Add the picture to the chronological list of featured pictures. Put it in the gallery using this format: File:xxxxx.jpg|# - '''Headline'''<br>created by [[User:xxxxx|xxxxx]], uploaded by [[User:xxxxx|xxxxx]], nominated by [[User:xxxxx|xxxxx]]
- The # should be replaced by 1 for the first image nominated that month, and counts up after that. Have a look at the other noms on that page for examples.
- You may simplify this if multiple things were done by the same user. E.g.: File:xxxxx.jpg|# - '''Headline'''<br>created, uploaded, and nominated by [[User:xxxxx|xxxxx]]
- Add == FP promotion ==
{{FPpromotion|File:XXXXX.jpg}} to the Talk Page of the nominator.
- As the last step (whether the image is featured or not; including {{FPX}}ed, {{FPD}}ed and withdrawn nominations), open Commons:Featured picture candidates/candidate list, click on [edit], and find the transclusion of the nomination you've just finished closing. It will be of the form:
{{Commons:Featured picture candidates/File:XXXXX.jpg}}
Copy it to the bottom of Commons:Featured picture candidates/Log/June 2024), save that page, and remove it from the candidate list.
Closing a delisting request
[edit]- In Commons:Featured picture candidates/candidate list click on the title/link of the candidate image, then [edit].
Add the result of the voting at the bottom (on a new line with a space first)
'''Result:''' x delist, x keep, x neutral => /not/ delisted. ~~~~
(for example see Commons:Featured picture candidates/removal/Image:Astrolabe-Persian-18C.jpg) - Also edit the title of the delisting candidate image template and add after the image tag
delisted or not delisted
For example:
=== [[:File:XXXXX.jpg]] === becomes === [[:File:XXXXX.jpg]], delisted === - Move the actual template from Commons:Featured picture candidates/candidate list to the bottom of the actual month page on Commons:Featured picture candidates/Log/June 2024.
- If the outcome was not delisted, stop here. If it is delisted:
- Remove the picture from Commons:Featured pictures, list and any subpages.
- Edit the picture's description as follows:
- Replace the template {{Featured picture}} on the image description page by {{Delisted picture}}. If using the {{Assessments}} template, change featured=1 to featured=2 (do not change anything related to its status in other featured picture processes).
- Remove the image from all categories beginning with "Featured [pictures]" (example: Featured night photography, Featured pictures from Wiki Loves Monuments 2016, Featured pictures of Paris).
- Remove the "Commons quality assessment" claim (d:Property:P6731) "Wikimedia Commons featured picture" from the picture's Structured data.
- Add a delisting-comment to the original entry in chronological list of featured pictures in bold-face, e. g. delisted 2007-07-19 (1-6) with (1-6) meaning 1 keep and 6 delist votes (change as appropriate). The picture in the gallery is not removed.
- If this is a Delist and Replace, the delisting and promotion must both be done manually. To do the promotion, follow the steps in the above section. Note that the assessment tag on the file page and the promotion tag on the nominator's talk page won't pick up the /replace subpage that these nominations use.
Manual archiving of a withdrawn nomination
[edit]- In Commons:Featured picture candidates/candidate list click on the title/link of the candidate image, then [edit].
In the occasion that the FPCbot will not mark withdrawn nominations with a "to be reviewed" template and put them in Category:Featured picture candidates awaiting closure review just like if they were on the usual list, put the following "no" template:
{{FPC-results-reviewed|support=X|oppose=X|neutral=X|featured=no|gallery=|sig=--~~~~}} - Also edit the title of the candidate image template and add after the image tag
not featured
For example:
=== [[:File:XXXXX.jpg]] ===
becomes
=== [[:File:XXXXX.jpg]], not featured === - Save your edit.
- Open Commons:Featured picture candidates/candidate list, click on [edit], and find the transclusion of the nomination. It will be of the form:
{{Commons:Featured picture candidates/File:XXXXX.jpg}}
Copy it to the bottom of Commons:Featured picture candidates/Log/June 2024), save that page, and remove it from the candidate list.
