I don't think a week is enough to clear all discussion and evaluate all
solutions, but let's try.

I only see a "logo vote system" vote. Who decide the other points?

Even if we have to use Average method (not my favorite method) for that, I
think we must create pages to vote on:

* Rules for submission

* Deadlines (too short imho)

* Logo vote method (pending...)

* Cheat handling

For submission I think we have better to have one main page with only the
author favorite logo (1 logo) plus a link to one page per logo with all
variants.

If we vote for a final logo we need a lot of variant, isn't it?

We can like a logo concept but prefer a different color, font text,
contrast, frame style, etc.

For example, I see a lot of interesting logos variants in the Paullus page
(made by him?) and I think it may be great if we can vote for all those
variants (and new ones).

Imho, encourage wikipedians to propose new logos variants, is a better way
to get the logo witch satisfy the most people. Sure, finalists' authors must
select themselves witch logos are in accord with there own concept.

This must avoid FPTP method that disfavor logo with the more variants.

Who will check each user to see if (s)he done at least 10 edits ? What about
people who contribute anonymously ?
