The Wikimedia Commons' annual Picture of the Year contest has concluded. The contest has been held since 2006 and "aims to identify the best freely licensed images from those that during the year have been awarded Featured picture status". The first 53 top-voted entries were disqualified because they were all nude.

First place: Rolling out VisualEditor.

Second place: An early Wikimedia Foundation board meeting.

Third place: Wikimania on the dance floor.

Fourth place: A dissatisfied editor.

Fifth place: Please do not bite the newcomers.

Sixth place: A young The ed17 with one of his many model airplanes.

Seventh place: Write your own caption. We want no part of this.
