Wikipedia multilingual logo update

Written by Patrick Hall, November 10th, 2008

I ran across this on the Wikipedia mailing list and thought I’d repost it for my fellow language nerds:

We’re working on an update to the Wikipedia logo, which can be used in 3-D, which will be correcting all the incorrect glyphs, and include
many other scripts that are not presently in the logo.

The project page is at http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia/Logo and we’re still looking for community members to discuss, to help sort
out characters, font styles and representations for the additional
alphabets as well as continue discussing the current glyphs on the
talk page at http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:Wikipedia/Logo.

Your input is greatly appreciated!

That post was from Cary Bass.

The project page has a nifty diagram of the work in progress (where you can see the borked up Katakana on the current logo, can’t believe I’d never noticed that before…):
