I know this has come up some more times, but this time
somebody
actually filed a deletion request about all Wikimedia logos, see
<http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Deletion_requests/Copyright_by_Wikimedia>.
Note that the nomination is correct by the letter, so unless the
foundation changes the licensing policy, we will have to delete the
images. Nobody wants them deleted, so I would ask the board to clarify
on this issue.
Staff/foundation folks should also look at the images listed before commenting.
For the true Foundation logos. It would be best to remove them from
commons, and make them accessible from the skins... but thats not
really technically feasible to achieve without a lot of needless work,
so they should say. ... and for these images I think that the
nominator is being intentionally and needlessly disruptive.
A number of these images, however, are not official foundation logos
and I expect the foundation would not and should not approve of them.
