The ticket resolves the communities' requests regarding logo changes due to WP25, and the subtask is the specific local wiki implementation. While there are some factors of general tracking... in case we have left some wikis behind.

I have updated the description to align with the purpose. Thanks.

No it does not. Each subtask does, and each subtask is also fine without having this "parent" task existing.

in case we have left some wikis behind.

That either makes no sense as not every wiki has to change its logo, or I do not understand what "left behind" means here.

That makes more sense. Should I close this task and detach the subtasks?
