Portal:Mathematics/Upcoming featured pictures

This page is currently inactive and is retained for historical reference.
Either the page is no longer relevant or consensus on its purpose has become unclear. To revive discussion, seek broader input via a forum such as the village pump.

This is a list of pictures that are in the queue to appear as "Picture of the month" at Portal:Mathematics.

To place a picture in the queue, follow the first "redlink" below to edit the page, copy and paste this sample wikitext into it, then make the appropriate modifications to point to the right image, relevant article, user who created the image, and "previous" and "next" pages (e.g., the "...2012 12" page would point back to "...2012 11" and forward to "...2013 01"). Also provide a short description, ideally based on text in the most closely related article or from the image page itself.

Note that you do not have to edit Portal:Mathematics/Featured picture, since it automatically points to the page for the current year and month.

Finding good images

When choosing pictures for upcoming months, please try to find mathematics-related images that have not already appeared as pictures of the month at the portal. Some good places to look include:
