International logo contest/Logos 1-25

2003 Wikipedia international logo contest (logos 1-25)

This was an international contest held from July 20 to August 27 2003, gathering 150 proposals. After the early proposal by Chuck Smith on October 12, 2002, the contest was first proposed on June 14, 2003 by Erik Moeller, who argued that the logo (adopted in January 2002 from the Logo suggestions) was unaesthetic, not international, and portrayed a text-only Wikipedia.

Both 20a and 20b are seen as variants for the Wikipedia logo: 20a is a logo with text (yes, I believe in text); "Wikipedia" in Bodony is the brand and should stay, the text in yellow can vary with localized Wikipedias. The 20b's are logo-only-logos, can also be used much smaller ...
