Create SVG versions of five Wikisource logos
completed by: Thomas Lam
mentors: Quim Gil
Many Wikimedia projects are using bitmap image as logotype in all their pages, which rings two problems:
- Bad quality in high resolution displays.
- Very difficult to edit.
Join the community goal of converting all logos to SVG! Here you have a piece of work:
1. Create exact SVG replicas of the logos of these projects:
- https://cs.wikiversity.org -- the font used is Gill Sans, and the English logo is at https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Wikiversity-logo-en.svg
- https://az.wikisource.org
- https://bs.wikisource.org
- https://fi.wikisource.org
- https://et.wikisource.org
The font used for Wikisource logos is Linux Libertine O Capitals, and you can use https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Wikisource-logo-fr.svg as your blueprint.
Linux Libertine O Capitals can be downloaded from https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/foundation/5/5f/LinLibertineO_473.zip -- see https://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Wikimedia_official_marks/Word_mark_creation/howto_W for instructions on producing the Wikipedia "W" character.
The link to the files and the text strings are available here: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Cbrown1023
2. Upload the logos to Commons
Upload the new images to http://commons.wikimedia.org, using this name fomat:
Wikibooks-logo-XX.svg
where XX is the language code.
After publishing each image, edit the description following this example.
3. Notify the completion of your task
In addition to marking the task ready for review here, you must notify it also in the bug report tracking the progress of this community project:
Bug 52019 - Vectorize all project logos
Just add a comment there with the links to your SVG files in Commons.
If you have any questions about this task you can ask directly in the bug report, which is followed not only by the GCI mentors but also by other experienced communty contributors. This will assure you better replies, probably sooner.
