Wiki Clicks AMU 2026: Through Students Eyes

From March 15 to April 15, 2026, Wiki Club AMU invited students to see their campus not just as a place of learning, but as a living gallery of architecture, nature, and geometric harmony.

There is a certain magic in walking the same path every day, the way morning light falls on a centuries-old arch, the unexpected symmetry of a garden corner, the quiet resilience of a tree that has witnessed generations of students. For one month this spring, Wiki Club AMU asked its fellow students to pause, look closer, and share that magic with the world.

Wiki Clicks AMU 2026 was more than a photography contest. It was an open call to document the soul of Aligarh Muslim University through three thematic lenses: Architecture, Greenery, and Geometry. Held from 15 March to 15 April 2026, the contest invited bonafide AMU students to submit their original photographs to Wikimedia Commons, contributing to the world’s largest free visual archive while celebrating the university’s unique aesthetic language.

Themes

• Architecture
• Greenery
• Geometry

The result was a remarkable collection of images, each one a love letter to a place that is at once historic and deeply personal. Over the course of the month, participants submitted a total of 131 photographs, enriching Wikimedia Commons with fresh visual documentation of AMU’s architectural and natural heritage.

The Winners: Excellence in Every Frame

After careful deliberation by a distinguished jury: Aafi, Ndahiro Derrick, Shzshb, Ndahiro Derrick, Ndahiro Derrick and Striving Tranquil—the winners were announced.
