Second international round[edit]
The national finalists are selected in an intermediate round focused mostly on the originality and the image quality.
- Explanation method
Similarly to Wiki Loves Monuments, international and national juries can show different taste, especially when some juries are small. For this reason it possible that some second finalists are given a higher ranking than the national winners at the international level.
Winners[edit]
The final winner and 4-6 runners-up were finally selected out of a final brainstorming from the finalists after the intermediate round, with some minor rearrangement based on
- the quality of their scientific description;
- the resolution and the presence of technical and scientific details;
- specific strong criticism by jurors or the academic committee (e.g. very common idea);
- use on wikimedia platforms (as of July 2020);

- excessive similarity to the winners and runners-up of the previous edition;
- a final balance of subjects and themes.
Please notice that in order to maximize the chance of every file, and due to specific taste of national and international juries, some files are categorized twice.[1]
- ↑ For example some users might prefer the "wildlife and nature" category, but some landscapes are also considered under "general", similarly certain jury accept images in the "people in science" category where only a portion of the body is visible, so they are sometimes included in other categories as well (es: general) at the international level.
