Hello Ziko, 
There's a project, Wikipedia Pages Wanting Photos, that's championing this 
effort (maximizing use of Commons' images on Wikipedia articles).
Best,Ammarpad

 Dear Kunal,Thank you for your mail! And if we want to celebrate the 
photographers, the best is to do that by embedding images into Wikipedia 
articles. :-)Kind regardsZiko

Dear Wikimedians, 
 
The 2022 Picture of the Year competition has ended and we are pleased to 
announce the results: 
 
In both rounds, people voted for their favorite pictures. 
    
   - In the first round, there were 1102 candidate images.
   - In the second round, people voted for the 56 finalists (the R1 top 30 
overall and top 2 in each category).
 
In the second round eligible users could vote for up to 3 finalists – each of 
these 3 votes counted equal. There were 2,386 eligible voters in R1, and 2,860 
in round R2. 
 
Congratulations to the winners of the contest and thanks for creating these 
beautiful pictures and sharing them as freely licensed content: 
    
   - 335 people voted for the winner, File:Phalacrocorax carbo, Egretta 
garzetta and Mareca strepera in Taudha Lake.jpg by Prasan Shrestha
