Beta testing periods
- There will be several days of beta testing period, so we can check whether the voting script is working successfully.
- Votes in the testing period — the several days before the official opening date — are also eligible. The committee will count them as well as the votes cast in the later period.
- If you find a bug for the voting tool, please report it to MediaWiki talk:Gadget-EnhancedPOTY.js; report other issues to Commons talk:Picture of the Year/2021.
Voter eligibility
- Users must have an account, at any Wikimedia project, which was registered before 1 January 2022 [UTC].
- This user account must have at least 75 live edits on any single Wikimedia project before 1 January 2022 [UTC]. Please check your account eligibility at the POTY 2021 Contest Eligibility tool.
- Users must vote with an account meeting the above requirements either on Commons or another SUL-related Wikimedia project (for other Wikimedia projects, the account must be attached to the user's Commons account through SUL).
- Notes
- Even if a user has multiple eligible accounts, each user can only cast votes from one account.
- Votes from IP users will be considered invalid.
- Votes cast by ineligible users/accounts and multiple/duplicate votes cast in violation of the rules will be invalidated.
- Due to the large vote volume, we are unable to accept voters that do not meet these criteria as determined by the official POTY 2021 voter eligibility tool.
- We may contact you on your talk page for up to 1 year after you vote to alert you to contest results and invite you to participate in next year's contest. You may opt-out at any time.
Voting rules
In Round 1 - multiple vote - eligible users may vote for as many candidates as they wish to support (one vote per image).
In the final (Round 2)- three votes - eligible users may vote for only 3 finalists. Each of these 3 votes counts equally, and each finalist must be voted for only once. You do not have to cast all three of your votes. Note: if someone casts more than three votes, only the 3 most recent votes will be counted.

Image eligibility
- Round 1
- All Featured Pictures from 1 January 2021 to 31 December 2021.
- Final
- The top 30 images from Round 1, by number of votes, from any category will go to the final round — the categories are irrelevant when it comes to counting the votes.
- If top two images in a category are not in the top 30 of all images, they will be also promoted to the Final to guarantee a diverse final.
A candidate should not be disqualified or replaced without careful discussion as long as it is not deleted (Ex. : a deletion request alone is not enough reason to disqualify an image.)
