Wikivoyage/Logo/Round 2
For the 2013 logo selection process, ongoing, please see Wikivoyage/Logo 2013 |
Round 2 voting period has CLOSED—see the results. |
It is desirable for Wikivoyage to have a new logo for its WMF launch which is tentatively scheduled mid January 2012. This will be a two-phase process. In round 1, we voted on the general concept of a logo. Now in round 2, we will flesh out the selected concept and select a final logo.
All submissions are variations on the round 1 winner, displayed at right. Submissions have now closed.
Time frame - Round 2:
- November 16–30: Open for submissions on variations of the chosen logo concept
- December 1: Voting begins on round 2 submissions
- December 8: Voting on round 2 closes at midnight GMT.
Logo contest guidelines:
- All submitted logos must satisfy the guidelines at Logo#Proposing_new_logos, which have been set down by the WMF.
- Our new logo should harmonize with existing WMF project logos (particularly the "content" wikis, as opposed to "administrative" wikis).
- At the same time, however, the logo should not be so similar to existing logos (WMF or otherwise) as to cause possible brand confusion.
- Our new logo must be language-independent (preferably no lettering in main logo, usable with "Wikivoyage" transliterated in all languages).
- The logo should somehow reflect and convey what the travel guide is about - a free, open source, travel guide that anyone can edit.
- The logo should be scalable and reusable. Consider how the logo will look: on the web page, as a favicon, on paper, on T-shirts, on smartphones and tablets, etc.
- The logo should be adaptable. We may use the logo as a basis for the design of icons and other design elements. Designing those icons is not part of the contest, but be prepared to answer questions on these.
- The logo's copyright must be transferred to the Wikimedia Foundation; that means (practically) that it has to be free of any copyright claims beyond the author's. "[T]he best practice may be to upload proposals on Commons under the Commons:Template:Copyright by Wikimedia, since the final trademark should be transferred to the Wikimedia Foundation." [1]
- The logo should be in a vector format (e.g., SVG).
- Wikimedia's Marketing Department gets to weigh in and Wikimedia's legal team gets a veto (for trademark or other legal reasons).
Voting guidelines:
- We will use en:Approval voting for this poll. You can vote for as many different options as you like, once per option. If you don't like an option, simply don't vote for it.
- This poll is to select the final logo for Wikivoyage. Please place ONE and ONLY ONE logo in each section, so that there is no confusion over which logo is being voted for.

Discussion #1
edit- Like the original with its sharp contrast between white and color. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 02:15, 19 November 2012 (UTC)
- It is very nice, but I don't like the use of WMF colours. I feel it would set the project apart in the category of a "special" project (Wikispecies, Meta, Commons, etc.) I think other colours should be employed. This, that and the other (talk) 05:10, 19 November 2012 (UTC)
- How are Commons and Wikispecies "special" projects? --Yair rand (talk) 11:40, 22 November 2012 (UTC)
- They have only one version. "Regular" projects, like Wikivoyage, have multiple language editions. At present, no regular projects use all three WMF colours. This, that and the other (talk) 00:01, 23 November 2012 (UTC)
- Good point. I was reticent about voting on other color choices, but I'll consider it now. --Waldir (talk) 19:18, 1 December 2012 (UTC)
- I strongly agree with This, that and the other. I suggest something like (or exactly) Logo #19—which differs only in its colors (that match with the colors of Wikiquote, Wikibooks, Wikisource and Wikiversity). Kontos (talk) 23:57, 3 December 2012 (UTC)
- Another strong agree! Please don’t muddle the colour scheme. WMF colours should only be used for ‘meta’-projects like Commons or Wikidata. My vote is for a blue-ish logo. — Linus (disk) 01:37, 4 December 2012 (UTC)
- I also think it's better if a different color scheme is used. With these colors, Wikivoyage looks like a meta-project. The colors should show what makes Wikivoyage distinctive and unique, instead of purposely muddling it in with the other Wikimedia projects. --Globe-trotter (talk) 02:17, 4 December 2012 (UTC)

- Maybe keep those colours, but make them more bright and apply the gradient. Amqui (talk) 00:03, 20 November 2012 (UTC)
- +1. --Yair rand (talk) 11:40, 22 November 2012 (UTC)
- This is the only one that is perfectly intelligible in the small version. --Amarvudol (talk) 10:49, 22 November 2012 (UTC)
- I really like this, and the use of the WMF colors is a positive for me.--Danaman5 (talk) 13:38, 22 November 2012 (UTC)
- Clean, effective, neat. I like it, a lot. The use of Wikimedia colors is not an issue for me, at most a positive. Snowolf How can I help? 20:31, 24 November 2012 (UTC)
- A stated in round1, I think that this logo need no changes. WMF colours should be changed only if strictly necessary. Before defining this logo "flat" check the logo in the upper left corner of this page, then compare: the arrows an the curves suggest a sphere even in the favicon version! If colours are to be changed, at least keep red green and blue... - εΔω 10:47, 29 November 2012 (UTC)
- This logo is IMHO the best, even if it is the basis concept. --Vale93b (talk) 18:34, 1 December 2012 (UTC)
- Does anyone else find the arrows too "square"? I find myself wishing they had sharper barbs, like in File:Fairytale kontact.png for example. --Avenue (talk) 12:13, 3 December 2012 (UTC)
- Yep, I think the outlines could be improved. I’ve made a version (not realising that no new proposals will be accepted anymore, d’oh!) which has more barbed arrows. — Linus (disk) 08:18, 4 December 2012 (UTC)
- Commons has a favicon: YellowPegasus (talk) 17:40, 4 December 2012 (UTC)

Discussion #4
edit- It's not "Wikimedia" colors, but I really like the brightness and energy associated with this color palette. Travel is about new experiences, and these colors are much more indicative of that feeling than earthy colors or the Wikimedia color standard. Steven Walling (WMF) • talk 19:54, 19 November 2012 (UTC)
- For me, it's an advantage that's it's not Wikimedia colours. It helps differentiate the project. Amqui (talk) 23:57, 19 November 2012 (UTC)
- I like this the best, but the color combination is reminding me a bit too much of Google. MAssaf (WMF) (talk) 19:57, 19 November 2012 (UTC)
- I also like this. It would be nice to experiment with making it slightly darker/more intense, particularly the yellow, but I don't think it's necessary. I can see that it's a little reminiscient of Google, but I don't think it's too much, particularly since ours has no green. Superm401 | Talk 20:18, 19 November 2012 (UTC)
- this is a much more merry composition than the original. Is it only on my screen or do the colours look a bit bland, a bit blended with grey sort of. /Johan Jönsson (talk) 20:32, 19 November 2012 (UTC)
- I have added 4a. I fully agree that the yellow in particular was too dim. If you still think all the colours need a bit more "life", I can add another variation. This, that and the other (talk) 22:45, 19 November 2012 (UTC)
- Sorry, on which one of these two versions is the vote? Ziko (talk) 00:00, 2 December 2012 (UTC)

- I love like the third logo. And I think that the shape differs much enough from the WMF Logo that it can use similar colours. --Christer • Talk 19:11, 21 November 2012 (UTC)
- The globe is a bit crowded; just keep the two arrows inside; well, I suppose that becomes logo #3 then. Fogg (talk) 04:09, 22 November 2012 (UTC)
- No i thinks is a good idea to get rid of the inside circle line. The difference with logo 3 is the absence of the shade (fond en français) in the backgroud. Also, getting out the circle line give more space for the original design inside the compass. So we have the original design forming a globe in the compass. -- ChristianT (talk) 13:16, 22 November 2012 (UTC)
- I agree. Could we see and compare one coloured version without the inside circle line, keeping the two arrows and the two "parallels" lines, and a second version with the inside circle line but without the two "parallels" lines? Thanks to the author for your work! Fogg (talk) 03:42, 25 November 2012 (UTC)

- I really like v1 and v2 - nice in many aspects. However, I have a concern: this logo is too "busy" (too much going on in such a small area). Other WMF logos have a simple design with one "main" element. This logo has two main elements (the compass rose and the arrow-globe), making it visually busy and "heavy" to look at. A logo needs to be "lighter" (i.e. less heavy) and easier to look at. This, that and the other (talk) 23:44, 25 November 2012 (UTC)
- Mhmm, I understood what you mean, but I think it is acceptable and every wiki logo has two elements. I've tried to remove one ring to simplify a bit, and than I've added some shadow and lights (see example 5). --F l a n k e r (talk) 21:20, 30 November 2012 (UTC)

- I agree to the point to avoid similar design elements of other sister projects--Nobelium (talk) 00:56, 26 November 2012 (UTC)

editMore compact? LtPowers (talk) 18:33, 30 November 2012 (UTC)
- Forgive my poor English-language skills. I mean "compact" as in "compact design", perhaps "solid" may clarify the concept. Although the alternation between the visual perception of four thin strips suspended in space and the perception of the virtual sphere can result in a good effect, that void can lead to a bad rendering over dark backgrounds or those similar to one of the colors. --
