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 ?
