Duplicate of File:Wikipedia-logo.png, see also above.--Jusjih 21:45, 4 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I noticed that today and mentioned that in IRC. I don't want to question Connel though, he probably has a good reason for uploading the same file twice. -- Prince Kassad 21:46, 4 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
It's much used and would first need to be orphaned (unless we switch to using the Commons' file of the same name, which looks different). I'm willing to trust Connel had a reason for having this one, unless he says otherwise. In any event, no harm in keeping it. It needs a copyright tag, though: unlike most of Wiktionary, it is not free content.​​—msh210 15:19, 6 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

RFD (2)[edit]

The following information has failed Wiktionary's deletion process.

It should not be re-entered without careful consideration.


Image is on Commons and protected there. It evidently only exists here to be in a category, which makes no real sense to me. Wiktionary doesn't host files, so there's no point in having much of any except possibly the requisite File:Wiki.png, but I really don't see why we should host a local version of the logo to a different project. —Justin (koavf)TCM 07:04, 1 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Your premises are wrong: this file is in use in templates on a number of userpages, it isn't identical to commons:File:Wikipedia-logo-en.png (though it differs from commons:File:WikipediaLogo.PNG only by having less whitespace around it, apparently so that it displays correctly in the templates), and Wiktionary does host files. However, I support moving this file to Commons. - -sche (discuss) 16:24, 1 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
"Wiktionary doesn't host files" yes it does, and you know this, just you pretend not to know this. As for why you do that, only you can possibly know. Mglovesfun (talk) 18:33, 1 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. This image is really not needed here. If it is somehow of special value, it can go on Commons. Otherwise, it is just not required at all. In my view, files hosted locally should be limited to local tests, etc, and (until/unless the community decides otherwise) non-free media.

This is an exact duplicate of Image:Wikipedia-logo.png anyway, so why keep it? -- Liliana 12:27, 2 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, good find! Delete this, then (and redirect it to that?). - -sche (discuss) 18:24, 2 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
