Hi there,The Wiktionary logo 2009 refresh has been going on for a while now, and as the logo submissions have been made, the voting will start soon. Please visit meta:Wiktionary/logo/refresh#Votinghttp://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wiktionary/logo/refresh#Voting for a discussion about the voting, and participate when the voting actually starts at meta:Wiktionary/logo/refresh/votinghttp://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wiktionary/logo/refresh/voting. Also, as is said on the discussion page, we need people to notify all the major Wiktionaries of the vote. Help would be much appreciated.
And... could someone in charge please show up and help with the vote? We have a feeling that the 2009 refresh is being 'abandoned'. ===================== YANG Xudong (Wyvernoid) The amateurs built the boat. The professionals built the Titanic.
Hi,
before considering a vote, please make sure that all the issues from the previous vote are resolved. Otherwise it's useless do to the same all over again.
Issues like : - make sure that the Wiktionary users are involved in the whole process. - make sure that all Wiktionary projects will indeed change their logo when the vote in over. - check the requirements for a proper logo such as : * one logo for all the projects. The logo should be exactly the same for all projects, without any adaptation for any language (which means no language-dependent feature). * do not use the same colors as the Wikimedia foundation. * the logo is independant from the text below ("Wiktionary, the free dictionary" etc.). * etc. - the process should be prepared with the help of someone from the Wikimedia Foundation.
The first and second points are by far the most important : a vote without the majority of the users involved in the project would be meaningless. We could even consider making it a Wiktionary users only vote.

As you can see on the page I provided a link to, the things you mentioned are being seriously considered. About the first point, it is indeed very important and we're trying to notify all major Wiktionary projects in order to draw attention and votes. For example you could help with notifying fr.wikt.
About drawing help from Wikimedia Foundation... How should we do that? ===================== YANG Xudong (Wyvernoid) The amateurs built the boat. The professionals built the Titanic.
