It should be fairly obvious that the design is based on a fusion of two letters "W" (for wiki) and "λ" (for functions).
The logo is also a carefully organized composition of four triangular arrows. Arrow is used in the design as the building block because it is commonly used to represent functions under various circumstances, such as arrow notation for mathematical functions, and arrow functions in different programming languages.
Because of its simplicity, it works well at different sizes and can be easily adapted for different applications (the "powered by" button is an example application).
Shapes in the logo are based on the design grid to create geometric harmony.

Support By far the most pleasing one to look at. In contrast to a lot of others, it works great in small sizes and low resolutions, because it is not too detailed. Yet it perfectly conveys what Wikifunctions will be about using common symbols. Would still look great in black and white. Bonus: the W looks a bit like horns symbolising the potential of the project. CamelCaseNick (talk) 02:58, 2 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Support - My favorite in visual effect and in spirit. Recognizable and memorable on its own, not just as a subset of characters one could type on a keyboard. –SJtalk 05:48, 2 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Support This logo is phenomenally dynamic. It is highly stylized, but includes a distinct "W" shape, and a less-distinct lambda (less-than-obvious/hidden elements in logos are sometimes really cool. Think the arrow in the FedEx logo, or the hidden "H" in the Hartford Whalers logo). This would make a rather iconic logo for the project if selected.

Support Interesting idea, good use of Wikimedia colors, visually distinct shapes; I have a bit difficult with the "pointiness" of the shapes. Finn Årup Nielsen (fnielsen) (talk) 20:09, 4 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Support I like that it is light and aspirational. I could see both the W and the lambda without reading the explanation. Elitre (talk) 11:44, 10 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Support The concept behind the the logo is very interesting. From afar this one has stood out amongst the many other logos here due to its unique shape and well-blended-in meaning that can be visually seen without needing it to seem forced into the logo.
