The puzzle globe copuld be licensed by WMF something like this:
1) A gallery page of weblink and supporter icons and such that can be used by anyone to promote "10". If you have designed one and would like to have it considered for the gallery please submit it here (address). These are licensed purely in connection with "10". They may not be used otherwise, nor is any part of them licensed for use in any manner that would suggest (whatever)...
This is the sort of thing lawyers do well. Ask them. But basically have a gallery of "official" icons, weblinks, imagery etc, anyone can submit to have their creation added, and those images only (and without amendment may be used under a suitable restricted license (non-free) in connection with the (positive) promotion and support of the 10th anniversary...
2) My idea for a 10th anniv. icon would be a slightly richer globe, with gold hinting and highlighting (not solid gold or all-gold cracks etc... highlights and slightly richer text. Subtle picking out and a bit of a hint of richness. An overlaid single "X" in a decent font, and options for text to the right side

I am really convinced about the idea that it would be the best, to make it on Commons. The question I have is just, how is it with the trademark of the puzzle-ball if artists and/or photographers use for their creation?

Hebrew Wikipedia is already offred contest to create special logo for
10th.
I think it will be great and easy opportunity to offer global contest -
we
can give small prize to the winners, and also print them and show them on Wikimania (along other posters).

This sounds fantastic!
I opend yesterday a facebook-site [1] and one on Meta [2], de [3] and en [4] where we can collect ideas and drafts to celebrate the anniversary. Ideal would be, if there would be "sister-sites" in all language-versions to synchronize the activities, like an exhibition (my personal favourite I am working on), special meetups, publications or else.
An idea, I induced at the german "Redaktion Bilder" was to make a contest, maybe on Commons to create/find a "10th anniversary Logo" [5] It would be wonderful if we can combine all this activities to a great 2011!

Hi,
I had two meetings in the last days with Google, and their YouTube regional marketing team and after also talking with YouTube team on Google HQ.
We
start to discuss maybe to do something together to celebrate 10th Wikipedia anniversary by a global and international project. YouTube and
Wikipedia
together are one of the top website in the world - and project
together
can be a very successful and marketing one..
The spectrum of ideas is very wide. People can share stories about how Wikipedia help them, their favorites articles, context with
universities
to make the most "coolest" video, by student reading articles.. it really to us what we want to do...
Now the limitations - to shy the true, I don't really know our "relationship" with YouTube. are any project with them can be
something
that work aginast our goal to push Commons\Kaltura? Our it's OK to do this kind of collaboration? In any case, we still need to build the project - but YouTube will probably into that..
Feedback?

Hi folks -
I know things have been quiet on this list from the Foundation side over the past few months, and we know all too well that there's not much time between now and the magic date: January 15, 2011!
Supporting Wikipedia 10th anniversary planning has largely fallen
into
the global development/communications section of the Wikimedia
Foundation.
Of course nothing will be possible without lots of broad support from
our
thousands of global volunteers and our chapters, as well as other partners (new and old!) and sponsors to help kick things off in style, for Wikipedia's 10th year.
Right now there are a couple of major considerations here at the Foundation, and I thought I'd start by sharing those major sections. Some areas need a lot more input from the community than others, but in
all
cases we want to share everything that's being planned (our ideas, your ideas, strategies, practices etc) so we can openly collaborate and try innovative ideas.
I see these as the three major areas of planning for Wiki 10 -
leading
up to, and during the year starting Jan 15:
- Global celebrations
(chapters and volunteer groups around the world hosting events, parties, and local festivities)
- A 'free' birthday celebration in San Francisco
(A Foundation-driven party on January 15, probably open to the public and acting as a central focus for festivities here in the Bay area)
- On-wiki festivities and celebrations
(Any number of great ideas to mark the 10th anniversary, on en:wp or other wikis - which may include tie-ins with the upcoming annual
fundraiser)
We'll have more to say about each of these areas early next week, and hopefully we'll add more areas or fill those sections out soon. I'd like to use this list as a central planning space, but I'm sure there will
also
be on-wiki discussions taking place.
The Foundation also has a small budget to provide reasonable grants
to
chapters or other volunteer groups around the world to support celebrations. The conditions for receiving those grants won't be too complicated,
and
we hope to get that process underway soon.
Although the Foundation is largely focussed on hosting a party and helping to support activities, we want to help coordinate a central on-wiki space where all activities from chapters, project reps etc can be shared so we can create a global 'at a glance' page with all planned activities.
We also plan to post our plans for a local party in the next week or two, so you can see how we're pulling the pieces together, what partners we're talking to, and generally share our information so you have a party template to use (if you're looking for one :)
I'm glad to see some other discussions underway on the list already - hopefully we can start adding more. Please share more of your ideas and we'll get started with the planning.
Thanks! jay
