Wikimedia Commons prepares to celebrate one million uploads
As the Chinese Wikipedia reaches 100,000 articles, the Wikimedia Commons is getting ready to celebrate a milestone of its own — 1 million files. Brianna came up with a great idea for the community to mark the occasion by creating a mosaic that represents the Wikimedia Foundation logo. The aim is to visually represent the breadth of images that are available on the project. If you want to help improve the mosaic, you can get involved in selecting better images.

[…] Finally a reason to meet Erik’s odd suggestion that WikiAngela should contain hippos. The millionth file has been uploaded to the Wikimedia Commons and it’s a picture of hippos at Singapore Zoo by Terence Ong! See my previous post about the mosaic created to celebrate this milestone. […]
