But File:Wikipedia-logo.png now uses the new version of the logo, so
what would that help?

Looking at the Google results, the first two are from Wikipedia (and
these are the old logo), but from the articles [[Wikipedia:Wikipedia
logos]] and [[Logo of Wikipedia]].  Both of which still includes the
old logo.

I think the article(s) in question might be key to this, and not what
the file names are.
