Per https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikivoyage/Logo_announcement, WMF has
received a cease-and-desist from the World Trade Organization regarding the
Wikivoyage logo. WTO has generously given us until the end of July to
change the logo. Per WMF legal, we cannot use any derivative of the current
logo, and I'd add to that that we really ought to stay away from the WTO
red-green-blue. (There's also the added bonus that WMF projects that use
the red-green-blue scheme are almost universally meta-projects, not content
projects.)



Please join the discussion, as we need to move quickly on this. And start
brainstorming logo ideas!

I think the difference in the two logos are very wide. Did they not see the
logo moving around in its early stages. So they're now seeing it to be
identical?

What a world we live in! Well, its as simple as getting a new one. The
WikiVoyage Logo also is very beautiful.

I wonder if the new one will be such attractive and nice.

Hi all,

most of you will already have seen the announcement of the results of
the logo contest
(https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikivoyage/Logo/2013/R2/Results/Runoff#Winning_proposal
). The new logo can be found here:
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Wikivoyage-Logo-v3-en.svg

The wikivoyage.org wikis themselves have already been updated to the
new logo. This is just a reminder that all Wikivoyage logos that are
used offwiki should be updated as well, as soon as possible. Thanks!
