[Wikimedia-l] 108 Wikipedias had their logo updated

2013-05-14 Thread Federico Leva (Nemo)
As you may remember, in 2010 the Wikipedia puzzle logo was updated: 
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia/2.0
The localisation and update of logos has always been a volunteer-driven 
effort, organised mostly by Casey at the time. Building on his work,[1] 
in the last 6 months over 100 Wikipedias had their logo updated,[2] with 
the last batch yesterday.
Like the 55 Wiktionaries in December,[3] many of those wikis have never 
had a localised before; the others were still using the v1 logo or had 
some other breach of the visual guidelines.
Many thanks to all the translators and users checking the new logos, and 
to the tireless Odder who drew some 66 of those logos and uploaded even 
more in the process of doing so. Again, you can still help by adding 
translations and reporting errors on the coordination page.[1]

Awesome work, all!

Note that I *strongly* encourage any logos not already available as SVG to
update to an SVG version. Not only are SVGs generally more flexible and
reusable because they can be scaled up, it'll also make it a *lot* easier
to add a high-resolution version of your logo for visitors with
Retina-density displays:
