Wallpaper Pictures Biography

A featured picture process is more about searching for, sourcing, improving, and maintaining the images that illustrate articles. As with a featured article, vetted work of recognised quality has some automatic right or "authority" to stay in its present form, and with a featured picture, to stay in an article. It's also an impetus to simply place the best illustration of a topic in an article, where it most benefits the encyclopaedia. I cannot say for certain how the Finnish Wikipedia operates, but I've often been surprised by the number of Wikipedias (not all of them small; the Spanish Wikipedia is a good example) that have hugely inferior images in their articles, when FPs on Commons and EN Wiki are available of the subject. Without the impetus of a featured picture process, many users would have no motivation to find the best available. Also, Wikipedia is criticised for the quality of its images, and that criticism isn't without some truth; we have many subjects which are only illustrated by very poor quality photographs, and many more topics that aren't illustrated by anything at all. A featured picture gallery goes some way towards correcting that, showcasing the best of what the Finnish Wikipedia has to offer. On one final note, I would like to think that a featured picture process local to the Finnish Wikipedia will inspire Finns to go out and photograph their own locality, and that, selfishly, can only benefit the rest of us, too. I'd love to see more nominations here of Finnish landscapes and people and wildlife! To sum up, no, it isn't about just the Picture of the Day.
