Thanks, Angela.
On my request, Drog has completely removed the logo box. I can suggest
the following to him:
1) to restore the logo box in a location where there is no risk that it
looks like Wikinews is an advertiser on theworldforum.org,
2) to change the text "In Association With" to something else, like:
- "Using content from:"
- "Some content provided by:"
- "Some stories provided by:"
More suggestions would be appreciated.
In the long term, I think having a standard logo *with* a text like this
would be useful for all Wikimedia projects -- then people can use e.g. a
"Powered by Wikipedia" logo on a CD or printout without there being a
misconception that it is a Wikimedia-approved endeavor. (Note that
"Powered by" has the problem that it is frequently used for software.)
I also think there *should* be a process for establishing real
partnerships that can be labeled as such, though I'm not sure whether
TWF is a candidate for that or not (they're not explicitly free content).
In any case, I won't do anything more on this matter until Jimmy states
his point of view.
All best,
Erik
