Featured pictures[edit]

Wikimedia Commons has several community-driven quality processes, the most long-running being "Featured pictures". This process highlights and rewards the most creative, informative and beautiful contributions created or found by Wikimedia users. At the moment there are over 650 "Featured pictures", with particularly impressive categories being high-resolution nature and animal photography, astronomic and other scientific imagery, and fully editable vector-graphic maps and diagrams.

Wikimedia Commons accepts the file formats of GIF and OGG (using a Theora codec) for video and animated media. Ogg is a patent-free, fully open and standardised multimedia format designed for efficient streaming and manipulation of video.

Most of the video files of Wikimedia Commons are historical material that has fallen into the public domain due to its age. On the animation front, however, a small group of dedicated volunteers have been steadily progressing in the "Chinese stroke order project", which aims to produce animated GIFs showing the correct stroke order for thousands of Chinese characters. The work is proving enormously beneficial for other Wikimedia projects such as the "Learn Chinese" Wikibook.

Currently all sound files at Commons are encoded in either the Ogg file format or MIDI file format. There are several principle types of audio files on Commons - song/music (mostly historical material), human speech, animal sounds and synthetic sounds.

The most comprehensive coverage at the moment is of human speech. This covers short pronunciation files (typically of words of phrases), recorded speeches (both present-day and historical), and recorded versions of written text. Recorded versions of written text includes Wikipedia articles (currently in eleven languages: Alemannisch, Catalan, Chinese, Dutch, English, French, German, Hungarian, Polish, Portuguese and Spanish) and books whose copyright has expired.
