--- Comment #14 from Luis Villa (WMF Legal) <lvi...@wikimedia.org> ---
As the FAQ explains[1], as long as you don't use one of the Wikimedia logos or
a confusingly similar domain name, merely using Vector/default Mediawiki does
not create a risk of being sued for infringement. So this is not a
critical/time-sensitive bug.

That said, it'd obviously be less confusing for everyone if
Vector-as-shipped-by-default-with-Mediawiki and
Vector-as-deployed-on-Wikimedia-sites were slightly different; or if the same
were true of any future theme we develop. So certainly legal approves of the
original intent of the bug. :)

Hope that helps; happy to answer questions.
