Interesting - in order, the top twelve are: * from a public domain source (NASA) * from Wiki Loves Monuments * from Flickr under a CC license * from Wiki Loves Monuments * a normal Commons upload * from a public domain source (NASA) * from Flickr under a CC license * from Flickr under a CC license * from Wiki Loves Earth * made with the support of WMSE * a normal Commons upload * from the UK government via the Open Government License
Nice demonstration of how diverse our sources are - two 'normal' uploads, three from contests, one supported by a chapter, three from Flickr under CC, two in the public domain from NASA, and one from a government open-license release.
