Picture of the day block on the main page of Wikimedia Commons is broken
Picture of the day block on the main page of Wikimedia Commons is stuck at some older picture of the day. In order to see it in effect you have to log out. It’s a serious issue of large scale that needs to be fixed – the majority of several hundred thousands daily visitors to the main page of Wikimedia Commons are non-registered users.

- Hi, I don't see any issue. Try to clear your cache, and reload the page. Yann (talk) 10:07, 18 October 2023 (UTC)
- Yann, yes, at the moment it is updated. But this was certainly not the case before I had left a message here. I tried it in two different browsers on two devices with refresh. Weird. Argenberg (talk) 10:18, 18 October 2023 (UTC)
Admin edit needed
Hello, I just created the template for the English description of today's MOTD, but I accidentally wrote Army instead of Navy. Can't change it now due to the protection, could an admin please make the edit? Cheers, BigDom (talk) 09:58, 2 November 2023 (UTC)
MOTD error
{{Edit request}} Could an admin fix the capitalisation of american [sic] in Template:Motd/2023-12-18 (en) please? Thanks Voice of Clam 08:15, 18 December 2023 (UTC)
- Now off main page. Fixed it myself. Voice of Clam 07:20, 19 December 2023 (UTC)
Mistype leads to hyperlinking to the wrong page for the word 'Feast' in picture of the day
In the featured picture for the word 'Feast' it goes to Calendar of saint not Calendar of saints Chacabangaso (talk) 11:12, 28 December 2023 (UTC)
Lopsided Main Page
{{Edit request}} Today's POD is in portrait mode (3,309 × 4,965 pixels), making the Main Page look lopsided (too deep on the left column). When this happens, can we rearrange the panes to put either the "Media of the day" or "Participating" pane on the bottom of the right column instead? — 🇺🇦Jeff G. ツ please ping or talk to me🇺🇦 11:46, 28 December 2023 (UTC)
Time to change the "Tweet" links for Picture of the Day and Media of the Day
Twitter has changed quite significantly since these links were originally put in place, and it seems time to think about getting rid of them. Daniel Mietchen (talk) 10:35, 23 January 2024 (UTC)
Support It would be best avoiding Twitter/X. Yann (talk) 10:38, 23 January 2024 (UTC)- Support I really don't see a need. Let's just avoid X. ─ The Aafī (talk) 12:52, 23 January 2024 (UTC)
- Sounds good to me. I would suggest replacing it with a link to the fedi-share tool, to promote sharing on the Fediverse. Legoktm (talk) 04:14, 27 January 2024 (UTC)
