This page is a) out of date, b) not particularly well written, and c) redundant to Wikipedia:Wikipedia logos. We don't need two project-space articles on the same topic. Powers T 12:35, 18 May 2010 (UTC)
- Delete. Kubek15 write/sign 15:59, 18 May 2010 (UTC)
- Save per 3KB CompuHacker (talk) 19:11, 18 May 2010 (UTC)
- That doesn't make any sense. Powers T 20:51, 18 May 2010 (UTC)
- Where's the history for this, anyway? If it's being kept then the history pre-CompuHacker's move needs to be located for GFDL compliance. Chris Cunningham (not at work) - talk 19:36, 18 May 2010 (UTC)
- I couldn't figure it out. Powers T 20:51, 18 May 2010 (UTC)
- Maybe that's because you're the saxophonist. CompuHacker (talk) 21:27, 18 May 2010 (UTC)
- Are you deliberately trying to not make sense? Powers T 15:58, 19 May 2010 (UTC)

- Archive: No reason to delete it, part of Wikipedia's history. Buddy431 (talk) 04:48, 19 May 2010 (UTC)
- If you mean the article itself, I disagree; it was only created a few days ago as far as I can tell. If you mean the subject of the article, that topic is already covered in Wikipedia:Wikipedia logos. Besides, what does "archive" mean in this context? Powers T 15:58, 19 May 2010 (UTC)
- This is incorrect. CompuHacker (talk) 16:55, 19 May 2010 (UTC)

- Delete, as duplicate of Wikipedia:Wikipedia logos. --The Evil IP address (talk) 07:03, 19 May 2010 (UTC)
Explanation: This article was originally at Wikipedia Globe Logo. Based on how it was written, I assume it was there for months or possibly years, ignored. (I can't check because the original history was destroyed because of the moves.) I moved it to the Wikipedia namespace, then someone complained, an admin tried to move it back, and now everything is screwed up. Please leave the page exactly where it is, thank you. CompuHacker (talk) 16:55, 19 May 2010 (UTC)
- Why does this orphaned, (presumably) ancient, duplicate page need to be kept? Anyway, article histories are always available to admins even after pages are deleted; even if this page is kept, the history must be found to be compliant with the terms of the license under which editors contibuted to it. Chris Cunningham (not at work) - talk 21:40, 19 May 2010 (UTC)
- Comment: I've fixed the history, in a manner of speaking. It's still a mess, but it now clearly shows that this page was created on 6 May 2010. I'll notify the original creator of this page about this MFD. My !vote would tend to redirect to Wikipedia:Wikipedia logos. Graham87 02:22, 20 May 2010 (UTC)
- I'm tempted to suggest that this be relisted at AfD, as it was specifically intended for articlespace. In projectspace it's nothing but a duplicate of Wikipedia:Wikipedia logos. Chris Cunningham (not at work) - talk 08:24, 20 May 2010 (UTC)
- Delete. As both a miscellany (per Evil IP) and as article space (fails WP:N, WP:V and WP:OR) SpinningSpark 06:57, 21 May 2010 (UTC)
- Redirect: As everyone above said that the article was a very miscellany one, I've redirected the page Wikipedia:Wikipedia Globe Logo to Wikipedia Globe Logo. I don't know who moved it, but I moved it back to the original title instead. I agree that there shouldn't be any duplicated project page. But however, I moved it back. I actually agree and strongly support CompuHacker's idea that it should be retained under the original title.

- Comment per Chris Cunningham, this is definitely now at the wrong venue and should be moved to AfD. SpinningSpark 01:11, 22 May 2010 (UTC)
- Delete: per Spark and Evil IP... ––Sixeightyseventyone (talk) 02:30, 22 May 2010 (UTC)
