Description

Keeping track of which logos have been updated and which have not is going to be an ongoing challenge during the desktop improvements project. It would be helpful to have some kind of dashboard that tracks this. Additionally it would be helpful to render the various logos in the configuration they appear in the (new) Vector header. This provides an example of what would be great to have: https://people.wikimedia.org/~jdrewniak/dip-logos/

Good starting point: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1qHSJrK87nyIuZElEBn3cusNppxUaamHC640Mq-hYzb8/edit#gid=0

@ovasileva @Jdrewniak @alexhollender perhaps we can make a decision about this during our logo discussion. In my opinion this would have been super useful but the ship has sailed now that we're so far into the project. On retro this would have made our lives a lot easier.

+1 to this, @alexhollender and I were discussing the same thing today. Perhaps it's not too late to set something like this up now or at least before the next large set of pilot wikis

It may be too late now, but I've set up this page with the hopes of tracking the logos. I think it should go hand-in-hand with a modified process though.
