New logo to be put on KK-WP
We need to change logo of Kazakh WP on the main page. Thing is that since
beginning of XX century Kazakh alphabet has changed three times - Arabic, Latin
and Cyrillic. Currently we use Cyrillic, but we are discussing probability of
switching to Latin script again.
Now there are big discussion about spelling of the name of KK WP. The person
who launched KK WP for first time was Kazakh from China, and he named it
"Укипедиа" which phonetically close to "Ukipidiya" and grammatically out of the
common rules. Many people here advocate for changing it according to the rules
of official Kazakh orthography. In order to present authoritative opinion we
addressed this question to linguists from Institute of Kazakh Language. They
explained that we should change spelling of the name to "Википедиа" which would
be more accurate from grammatical point of view and phonetically will be closer
to "Wikipedia". So, having discussed this issue in community we have decided to
change spelling where we are actually writing the name of KKWP. But in the logo
of KKWP we would like to keep spelling in English.
So we are going make that change on the first page of KK WP. But it looks like
that our admin has no access to the part where we can change the logo. Could
you please help us to replace current logo to another one with new spelling.
Please find attached our new logo.
Thank you in advance,
Rauan
