Logos and free v. non-free content
[edit]You've changed the University of Florida logo from the script logo to the gator-head image logo in a number of articles. Only the script logo can be used: a text-only logo cannot be copyrighted, but the image can—and its use is not justified in multiple articles per the non-free content criteria. The rules on image use are tricky, so don't feel bad about this. —C.Fred (talk) 02:49, 27 July 2017 (UTC)
- Again, we cannot use the image logos as widely as you're trying to add them. Your edits are creating a mess that others, including myself, have to clean up. Please stop—or at least provide an explanation for why you think your edits are helpful. —C.Fred (talk) 03:00, 27 July 2017 (UTC)
My edits are helpful because I believe that the changes that I was trying to make was to make the pages up to date by adding the primary logos of the college teams.For example Michigan State they have the Spartan logo as their primary compared to the "Green S" logo in which they now rarely use. - jawuanwright (talk) 03:44, July 2017 (UTC)
- The problem is the Spartan logo is copyrighted. We may not use it in articles on seasons or rivalries because it's excessive use of a non-free logo. We may use it in the primary article about the team because we discuss the team and the logo. —C.Fred (talk) 20:47, 28 July 2017 (UTC)
