Hi Markus,
thank you for helping us (designers) to find the way :)
To help us a bit more, can you (and the other members) give us elements to
be integrated to the logo in reference to the WikiData philosophy?
Cheers,

Thanks for all the input!
One thing I would like to keep in mind is that Wikidata is meant to be
easy and welcoming for a wide audience. As a computer scientist, I
understand and appreciate imagery like a steel database cylinder, but I
think it could look a bit technocratic to "normal" people. I don't have
concrete proposals, but I would find it amazing if the logo could have a
human touch to it.
One idea maybe: many people will know the Unilever logo [1] (a U made of a
variety of objects). There are various logos in similar style (see also the
"earth" category at logotrends 2011 [2]). Maybe something like this would
be suitable for us, to show that Wikidata is about a wide range of topics
and people. But making such a logo is a bit of work.
Cheers,
Markus
