Comments [edit]

The following conversation is taken from Wikivoyage/Logo 2013/Submissions#Option 24 - Circle and arrows:

Meant to look similar to Meta logo, with arrows like on a compass rose. I don't know why it turned out so small. Ross Hill (talk) 00:08, 19 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Why in the world would we want a logo similar to Meta-Wiki's?? LtPowers (talk) 01:44, 19 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I agree--we want a distinctive and unique logo. Given that Meta and Wikivoyage are incredibly different projects, why would Wikivoyage inspire a similar design? --Peter Talk 21:01, 19 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I think you could reasonably say we don't want a logo that looks like any of the other WMF logos in shape or colour, we want a logo that is distinctive and different, like Wikipedia, Wikiversity, Wikisource etc. · · · Peter (Southwood) (talk): 13:49, 22 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Why? Half of the icons of Wikimedia projects (including Wikidata and Wikispecies) use the same colors. And Wikivoyage is a Wikimedia project! What's wrong with the colors? If it would a specification not to use the Wikimedia colors, why couldn't I read someting about it in the contest rules? Logos: http://www.wikimedia.org (i'm not a native speaker.

There is no rule that you can't use these colors, but Wikivoyagers have consistently said that they prefer a more unique logo, with a color scheme that is aims to be more reflective of the culture individual project in question, which probably means brighter colors, or colors in some way inspired by the idea of travel. (That recommendation is now at the top of this page.) Since the vote will be weighted towards Wikivoyagers, it might be worthwhile to take this preference seriously ;) --Peter Talk 18:43, 23 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
