You could find the solution here:

it seems to be under guidelines:
http://wikimediafoundation.
org/wiki/Wikimedia_visual_identity_guidelines
and you should ask a permission, but it is also strange look for a
permission for a Wikipedia logo in Wikipedia contents: it is a
paradox.

Oggetto: [Foundation-l] Use of Wikimedia-Logo's in articles
Because of an ongoing editwar in the Dutch wiki, I have a question
about the
use of the Wikimedia logo's.
Like most Wikipedia's, we have an article about Wikipedia itself (
http://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia ). Recently, this article
was the
center of an editwar.
The discussion is about the logo's: some editors say the content
of
Wikipedia is GFDL, and the logo is not, so the logo should not be
in the
article.
Others think the use is allowed, because the logo's are the
Wikipedia-logo's, and if we themselve can't use them, they are
just
obsolete.
Eve other just say: it's on Commons, so it's alright.
I've been looking for a policy on meta and on the foundation's
site, but I
really can't find any clear and definite policy: only that they are
looking
into it 'now', and that the board is talking about it.
Does anyone have a solid and conclusive answer on the question if
the logo's
may be used in the articles or not. Also, is there some official
policy of
the board about this, and if not, can a policy be written about
this matter.
We really need solid answers on this question, to stop this kind of
editwars
once and for all.
Greetings, Tuvic (nl-wiki)
