Out of scope logo

Unused logo of questionable educational usability. This logo might be considered [[Com:Advert|advertising content]], which would mean that it is [[Com:Scope|out of scope]]. If you believe that this logo could be used for an educational purpose (for example in a Wikipedia article) please respond.

Unused logo

Unused logo which is claimed to be own work. Logos with an own work claim and which are unused generally should be deleted per one of the following reasons. The logo is either of a non notable subject or company and could thus be considered [[Com:Scope|out of scope]] as [[Com:Advert|advertising content]]. On the other hand: if the logo is of a notable subject, and might thus be in scope, than the own work claim is almost surely incorrect and as such the author and source information are likely false. Incorrect sources mean that [[Commons:Essential information|essential information]] is missing. It would be possible, but hard, to fix this information as I do not know the original source. For potential usage of a logo downloading the logo and uploading it with correct information is very easy. Making reuploading when needed easier than finding already uploaded unused logos with incorrect information. Note that I do not make any arguments about whether this logo is above or below the threshold of originality as I believe that this logo should be deleted either way per the reasoning given. If you believe that this logo could be used for an educational purpose (for example in a Wikipedia article) and the attribution information is correct (or has been corrected) please respond.

For potential usage of a logo downloading the logo and uploading it with correct information is very easy. Making reuploading when needed easier than finding already uploaded unused logos with incorrect information, and fixing all potentially usable logos (there are also a lot of duplicates). Note that I do not make any arguments about whether these logos are above or below the threshold of originality as I believe that these logos should be deleted either way per the reasoning given. If you believe that one of these logos could be used for an educational purpose (for example in a Wikipedia article) and the attribution information is correct (or has been corrected) please respond.
