:: Good find. Personally, if we're getting rid of Data Core, would it not make sense to also change the text at the top of the site? So instead of reading "Tardis Data Core, the Doctor Who Wiki," maybe it could read "Tardis Wiki, Home of the Doctor Who Universe" etc. [[User:OttselSpy25|OS25]][[User Talk:OttselSpy25|🤙☎️]]

I pulled up the old debate from January and my sentiments remain the same. I love this new logo concept. It's recognisable, adds some colour, and also ties in with the way DWM have utilised the official logo for their version. It also adds some relevancy, tying into the new era and I also just think it's long overdue a change (especially now that we've also tweaked the backgrounds and we're in the process of updating the front page to tie more into current Who).
Plus, due to the way the new logo has been designed, it not only nods to the legacy of the programme (cos it riffs on the 70s one) but it also ties into its future too (RTD2+).
I like the version proposed here without any diamond surround, and I'd be more than happy to go for the one without any TARDIS next to it. I think it's neater without the TARDIS PNG. Having said that, if people prefer to keep the little TARDIS, I'm not against that. (Though maybe a little TARDIS could be used, as suggested prior, for the favicon.ico?)
If people wanted to keep "Data Core", I'd suggest following how DWM have done their logo - simply add the grey rectangular box under the logo for that text to go into. But I think it's perfectly fine without - I refer to this as "TARDIS Wiki" all the time, and the vast majority of people I've seen talk about it also do the same. "Data Core" feels superfluous really; it's a cute touch but it's unnecessary. I also think adding that in would make the new proposed logo feel cluttered and clumsy. (As suggested, if people wanted to keep it, just add it in as a plain text tagline maybe?)
I was hugely in support of a logo update in the initial discussion, and I still am now. I love the new proposal; I think it'd really help freshen up the Wiki :) [[User:FractalDoctor|Fractal Doctor]] [[User talk:FractalDoctor|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 13:03, 25 May 2023 (UTC)
