Thank you for your kind appreciation @rosanabtl. I see that like those of many other Local Guides, your overall photo views have dropped from 40,520,411 to 39,998,229 in February, no doubt caused by the recent Google Maps media issues. Hopefully, everything will be rectified soon.

@PrasadVRYou have two columns titled Axerage Views/Photo. The last one appears more correct to me, and it is interesting how a rapid increase in photos creates a decrease in average views per photo. You added just under 300 photos in 2 months, while I've taken 5 years to reach 600 photos. I haven't looked at your 300 new photos, so I don't have any thoughts on why they perhaps got low view counts and pulled down your average.

@tony_b Thank you for taking time to review my performance. My analysis suggests two reasons. First, I captured some good photos during the month but couldn't post them promptly due to lack of time. I filtered and posted them during the last week, resulting in fewer views. Second, due to a technical glitch, new photos didn't gain views.

@PrasadVR We're not sure if the technical glitch that affected all of us resulted in "no views" or just "no view counts displayed on the photo". It is possible that they're all still being viewed as usual.
I don't post as much as other LGs, but my usual objective is 1 or 2 good photos and 1 video for each place. Now that the February issues are clearing up, I seem to be getting a lot more photo views than video views. Very strange considering we were being told that video is the new big trend.

@tony_b Yes, I have also observed that photos are receiving more views than videos, against our common belief. Let's wait and observe for some time.

Hello everyone,
After first posting the February leaderboards earlier in this month, a number of errors were discovered. Some, like the one mentioned here, had a big impact on the leaderboards. Unfortunately very soon after the February leaderboards were posted, I headed off on an overseas trip and just didn't have the time to undertake the necessary investigation and then fixup these errors and repost the leaderboards. I want to start doing this now before the March leaderboards are posted.
The purpose of this comment is to document the errors in the February Photo Views leaderboards so as to make it as easy as possible for everyone to follow. Please note that the corrections will progressively be made and noted here. If you know of any errors that may have been missed in the discussions to date, then you can help by adding these in comments on the relevant leaderboard post.
Problem #1 - @photoslinger data entry error.
Note that as well as the Overall Top 100 Photo Views Leaderboard this error also impacted on the Billion Photo Views Club, Level 8 Photo Views Leaderboard and the Top 100 Average Views/Photo Leaderboards.
Problem #2 - anomaly in the level 8 ranking.
This problem was reported and clearly documented by @Rednewt74 here and is explained by my incorrect sorting of Local Guides by the total of photo and video views instead of just photo views. But there's more. A quick look at the January leaderboards indicates that this error was also present in previous months and no doubt also impacts on the other Local Guide level leaderboards. My bad and why wasn't this error picked up before? Note that some Local Guides missing in the originally posted February Level 8 Photo Views Leaderboard shown below, are now shown in the draft corrected Leaderboard here. I say draft because I'm not 100% confident that I've got it right yet and it needs everyone's checking 😉 😉
