Wallpaper Pictures

Wallpaper Picture Biography

These images satisfy three criteria:
They are Commons featured pictures or English Wikipedia featured pictures.
They are fairly large
They have an aspect ratio of 4:3 or 5:4
They are therefore likely to be good desktop backgrounds (wallpaper).
To check aspect ratio, go to the properties of the image, and then divide its height by its width. If the resulting number is 0.75 or 0.8, then it's the ratio we want. Anything between 0.71 and 0.84 is tolerable. See table.
To put an image in this category, add {{Wallpaper}} to its description page if it is featured on Commons or {{Wallpaper-en}} if it is featured on the English Wikipedia (but not on Commons).

This page highlights images that the Wikipedia community finds beautiful, stunning, impressive, or informative. Featured pictures are the visual equivalent to featured articles and, as such, are even moresubjective. There are currently 3,043 featured pictures, and they are categorized by the topic they represent. All featured pictures are also available in a category.
If you wish to add a specific image to this page, please nominate it onWikipedia:Featured picture candidates. Images listed here should be either in the public domain or covered by a free license.
One featured picture is chosen as the picture of the day. You can include this box anywhere (e.g., your user page) by adding the text {{pic of the day}} or {{POTD}} where you want the picture to be shown.
Featured pictures from all Wikimedia projects can be browsed by subject orby country on Wikimedia Commons.
