Hi,

Just to say thank you for sharing the finalists under a free license on Commons:
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:2022_Wikimedia_sound_logo_contest_finalists
Will the non-finalist sounds also be shared there? Commons needs more freely licenced audio files!

Thanks,
Mike

Thanks for the notes of appreciation shared here on this thread and elsewhere. A great deal of community and staff effort has gone into conceptualizing this contest and making it a reality, especially since May of this year when we switched to a more active phase of the project <https://diff.wikimedia.org/2022/05/24/refining-a-global-contest-to-create-the-sound-of-wikimedia/>. The great participation in the votes so far is much appreciated. With further thanks to your help and input, we were able to fix a few glitches and oversights as well. We took the precedent of voting and the reliable Schulze method <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schulze_method> from recent visual logo contests for Abstract Wikipedia <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Abstract_Wikipedia/Wikifunctions_logo_concept> and MediaWiki <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Project:Proposal_for_changing_logo_of_MediaWiki,_2020/Round_2> (you can learn more on Diff <https://diff.wikimedia.org/2022/05/14/conceptualizing-a-new-logo-contest-based-on-existing-practices/>).

So, please have a listen or listen again, and help select the sound of Wikimedia <https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Sound_Logo_Vote>.

Best regards,
Mehrdad

    I love this.  Thanks for all the work going into the candidates!

    (the voting widget is extremely non-intuitive however...)

        I didn't expect very much of this project.
        I was wrong.

        Thanks for all the logo proposals!

        Wow, I'm really impressed at the quality of these proposed sound
        logos.  It's going to be hard to choose!

        Thank you to all of the contributors, organizers, and volunteer
        screeners.

                I can't vote, but just wanted to send a note to say it
                was wonderful to hear all of the potential final sound
                logos. There are so many wonderful ones it will be hard
                to choose a single sound.
                One consideration that could have been included in the
                How to Vote section - the sound should be one people
                would not tire of hearing frequently...as we do
                indeed hope they will hear it often!

                    participated in this global contest. We received
