Hoi,
I seem to have traced an admin for hy.wiki, I left him a message here: http://hy.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D5%84%D5%A1%D5%BD%D5%B6%D5%A1%D5%AF%D6%81%D5%A B_%D6%84%D5%B6%D5%B6%D5%A1%D6%80%D5%AF%D5%B8%D6%82%D5%B4:Teak#Logo_issue
inviting him to join the list to discuss the issue. Most admins there seem to be fluent in English, so hopefully we can sort things out directly.

Hi,
I asked one of the users who appears to speak English to put me in contact with the admins regarding their logo. I'll report their answer as soon as I get one.

Hi, surfing on hy.wikipedia (Armenian I think) I've noticed that the logo has been coulored with the national flag colours. Not having a clue on Armenian, I'm not sure if this is only a temporary change (National Holidays?) or a permanent change. I think it shouldn't be allowed in the latter case, since wikipedia is about languages and not countries.

Ack ! Whilst I am supportive of temporary (as in "24 hours") fun logo for special events, setting up a permanent derivative logo is really wrong, in particular when it refers to a nation.
Can someone talk to them and explain to them it is not okay to do this ? I would be interested to know the process followed which led to such a decision. Might it reflect internal bias or a misunderstanding of the nature of our project ?
