- The other logo is nice, but has too many grey shades and the "big idea" is not very easy to distinguish from distance, let alone scaled down. This one has more contrast and works in small scale too. I really like the concept. --wwwwolf (barks/growls) 12:08, 1 January 2010 (UTC)

- The other option is so far from translingual that it is patently ridiculous. Besides noticeably using actual English upon magnification, its usage would incorrectly imply that all languages have a written directionality of horizontal left-to-right. Please at least consider the six official UN languages. In miniature, the Latin alphabet of the other image could look like English, French, Spanish, or even the Cyrillic of Russian but its spacing is clearly different from right-to-left Arabic and vertical Chinese. Because it starkly contrasts with the world's most popular natively literate language, Chinese, I do not understand how its choice could even be remotely respectable. -- thecurran 2010-01-01T14:30+00:00

- Maybe I'm just more used to this one, I dunno. The other logo doesn't look as good at favicon size, is a bit English-centric, and the right page is too blank. Thecurran and Wwwolf bring up some good points above. Tempodivalse [talk] 15:30, 1 January 2010 (UTC)

- Another logo with a page from an English thesaurus is just ridiculous, it isn't global enough and too detailed, as it is possible even to read a few lines in the book. This logo is actually widely-used and pefectly matches the existing scheme — NickK 02:29, 2 January 2010 (UTC)

- The other one seems anglo-centric, which is not, IMO, what the project is going for), this one is easier to use on a larger scale, which should be what we're going for. Very colorful and appealing to the eye which is important to a logo. You want to get people's attention! That's kind-of the point. And, since when was editing wikis a game? This is serious business.

- The other one is not a logo: it's too detailed to be used at small dimensions or low resolution. This one is much more international, which is a must, while the other one is at least latin-centric (I wouldn't say anglo-centric because words are not readable), as thecurran explained. Moreover, I'm not sure that the book is a good idea: manuals, encyclopedias, dictionaries of quotations... all our projects are the internet equivalent of a book or a series of book. --Nemo 20:18, 2 January 2010 (UTC)

- More like a logo, distinctive and stylized, fits with the other logos of Wikimedia projects, and expresses very well the universality of the project. And even the idea of a book doesn't seem necessary to me when representing a dictionary (books are just the material used for dictionaries until now, but not any more), whereas letters like pieces to build words are a very good idea in my opinion. - Cos 19:44, 3 January 2010 (UTC)

- The book is too detailed and colourless, although either of these logos would be an improvement over the current en.wiktionary logo. The argument that the tile logo is anglo-centric because it places W in the middle is poppycock for two good reasons:
1. Is the URL of all the sites not wiktionary.org?
2. Other languages are free to change the centre tile, like the Greek one. — Internoob (Wikt. | Talk | Cont.) 01:00, 4 January 2010 (UTC) - More livelier than the other candidate. — JB82 02:08, 4 January 2010 (UTC)

- I prefer the latter because it looks recognisable; having a book/ dictionary as a logo isn't exactly original, but rather quite vague. But... to be honest, I liked the old/ current one better. (or the lack thereof. It looks snazzy ^_^) Anyhoo, go team! Alzwded 09:46, 4 January 2010 (UTC)

- I really like this logo, and I hope it wins. It's cheerful, colorful, yet professional, easier on the eye, scalable, and it's the logo that some multilingual users are already familiar with. I don't get the point of this, though -- this logo was chosen last time and clearly this is an effort to choose a different logo. Can't people just write up a list of requirements (including the reasons for this voting round), announce the contest on all the WikiMedia sites so artists can take note, give them some time, and then have a voting round? MirekDve 17:29, 6 January 2010 (UTC)

- Support No need to say much, as many great reasons have already been referred! GTNS 22:59, 6 January 2010 (UTC)
- I hate the colors and the gradient. I hate the choice of symbols. I hate that every Wiktionary has a different center tile. To me, a line drawing isn't realistic enough and the lack of shadowing makes the characters look painted instead of engraved. Overall, the concept is okay but I hate the logo itself. Despite the absence of initiative or like-mindedness or any sign thereof, I'm unrealistically optimistic that someone will fix it so I don't puke on sight every time. Support.

- It looks a bit like Scrabble tiles, and that is a game that heavily relies upon dictionaries. :-) I like this logo, and looking back at the earlier proposals, I think it is the best presented so far. We don't need another book. WikiBooks, WikiJunior, WikiSource, and even Wikipedia are all book-based real-world items. We get that. What makes it different from a paper book? I think the tiles in multiple languages signify that difference. It's a global project coming together to define words and concepts in a new format that transcends books. Additionally, I despise the monochromatic (black and white) look of the book. If we are forced to have a book, at least make it colorful. B&W is so 1978 monochrome monitor style; we're in 2010 where 3D movies like Avatar are the standard. Don't pick an obsolete and outdated style as the logo for a wonderful project.

- I changed my vote after seeing that the 1st one was completely unreadable at small size (or as favicon). Also after reading comments above: it is clearly advocating LTR alphebetic scripts, and does not look multilingual at all. The puzzle pieces are also almost invisible. Yes the second has poor colors, but it is still the one that is easily recognized, and it fits very well with any local caption written in any script below it. Final note: the "open book" bitmap image does not scale at all in big sizes or in small sizes, or it will look very blurry : this is already the case with the prefered size which is twice smaller than its natural size: this would mean multiplying the bitmap versions for various sizes. (The "tiles" logo can scale well at both small and big sizes because it's a SVG, even if it can still be enhanced graphically, with more previse contours, a more natural 3D engaving of letters, and more natural shadows, perspectives and lighting, even when using SVG). verdy_p 04:15, 13 January 2010 (UTC)

- A book is a means for conveying information. It has no more to do with a dictionary than a novel or encyclopedia does. A good logo captures the essence of its subject matter, with as little detail as possible. This logo comes closer to such a realization; and, I think it does so quite well. Writing a dictionary is like figuring out a puzzle. The pieces are characters of a language. These pieces are constructed into words - entities that carry meaning in a language - and the big picture shows the relationship these words have with each other. This logo cleverly represents an international dictionary of many languages. It has colour. It is memerable. And, most importantly, it is simple. - The Aviv 06:44, 24 January 2010 (UTC)

- Better, more "international" and clear. Schlum 12:10, 26 January 2010 (UTC)
- The another one looks older Vssun 12:23, 26 January 2010 (UTC)
- The best choice. Can we please get over this now? --h-stt !? 12:42, 26 January 2010 (UTC)
- Clearer -- Razimantv 13:32, 26 January 2010 (UTC)
- Look like a keyboard Erestrebian 14:36, 26 January 2010 (UTC)

- More «wiki». Roger Indinger 20:11, 26 January 2010 (UTC)
- More clear to read than other, even if it is in reduced size --Junaidpv 03:29, 27 January 2010 (UTC)
- I already have too many paper dictionaries in my real library. --Wikinade 10:12, 27 January 2010 (UTC)
- Less a vote for this one, than a vote against the other "logo", which is way too "detailed", actually not what could be called a Logo. — User:MFH 14:35, 27 January 2010 (UTC)
- Clearer to read when its small, also like the international feel --mrww1 16:35, 27 January 2010 (UTC)

- I don't really like this one, but I dislike the other one --Alibaba 07:14, 28 January 2010 (UTC)

- I voted for it in the first round and I vote for it again here. It conforms to what a lot of the other wiki icons look like which is a plus. Valley2city‽ 22:34, 28 January 2010 (UTC)

- Buster Keaton 10:06, 13 October 2011 (UTC) Is it the opportunate moment now for voting for the BEST logo (in my mind), the "WiktionaryKo"'s Smurrayincherster ?
