[Wikipedia-l] National flag on wikipedia logo

[Berto 'd Sera]

Hi,

Yes, it's armenian. I don't know what policies about logos say, but simple
common sense suggests that cultures that have troubled relationship with
neighbours (as it happens basically in all the Caucasian area) would
probably make for better interproject communications if they kept away from
nationalistic symbologies. Yet I'm afraid they won't hear us at all. Most of
those projects work in total insularity, interproject communications do not
seem to interest them too much.

Hi,
  surfing on hy.wikipedia (Armenian I think) I've noticed that the logo 
has been coulored with the national flag colours. Not having a clue on 
Armenian, I'm not sure if this is only a temporary change (National 
Holidays?) or a permanent change. I think it shouldn't be allowed in the 
latter case, since wikipedia is about languages and not countries.
