Description

Currently the default logo for wikibase cloud instances is the mediawiki logo. Instead we would like the default logo to be the Wikibase Cloud logo, since that Wikibase is an instance of Wikibase Cloud.

Acceptance Criteria

  • After the creation of a new Wikibase Cloud instance, the default logo for that instance is the Wikibase Cloud logo.
  • this file should not be directly loaded from commons
    • put in a bucket controlled by wikibase.cloud OR
    • put it in the mediawiki image

Currently the plaques at the bottom of each wikibase cloud instance are very outdated. We want to update the plaques to match the other wikis.

The final result should look something like this

The left plaque can be copied straight from any other wiki page, for example wikidata.

The other two will have to be created manually.

The plaques seem to be codex buttons with following specs (it's also all in the figma file)

but instead of the button text you embed the following SVGs

A. powered by wikibase
SVG for powered by wikibase button

B. based on WBStack
SVG for based on WBStack button

Developer Implementation notes
We don't want to make any explicit design changes but instead add these new elements to the footer config. You can see these here:

How does this look?

If it wants to be in a different position, a square SVG would likely be useful.
Also, this file should likely be put in a bucket controller by wikibase.cloud rather than loaded from commons, but I don't have the technical ability to do that

Charlie_WMDE moved this task from Needs UX work to Kanban board Q1 2024 on the Wikibase Cloud board.

We need to figure out what our logo is.
We could also take care of the logos at the bottom of the page in the same ticket.

I'm not super certain that the way i think the plaques work is correct, so please if you pick this up and realise it's actually different, feel free to do it your way. You can also always reach out to me to double check before doing something that might contradict my assumptions. Happy to pair!

@Anton.Kokh both @Andrew-WMDE and I worry that we wouldn't want to describe our self as a "wikimedia project" I think we should check that the WMF would actually be fine with this.

@Tarrow @Andrew-WMDE @Charlie_WMDE
Regarding the last question, I found out that we should not have the 'a Wikimedia project' plaque on our wikis. By Wikimedia project, they imply things like Wikipedia, Wikibooks, Wiktionary etc (specific projects about specific knowledge supported by the Foundation)

@Anton.Kokh i updated the ticket description accordingly

@Charlie_WMDE Could you help me get a square logo in png or svg 135x135? The file you sent me is too big. I tried to resize it myself (buy using resize tool I found on google) but it looks small...

hey @dang the file is an svg, shouldn't it be possible to make it any size you want? the file you're using also seems to not be the correct one since it does not include the text. the correct file is this one. can you try again with that?

@Charlie_WMDE Are you happy with the result? Do you want to jump in a call so I can show it to you in person?
