The Wikipedia puzzle globe and wordmark
Following the introduction of the revised Wikipedia puzzle globe in May 2010, the Foundation's usability team revisited the construction of localized versions of the Wikipedia wordmark (the stylized version of the word Wikipedia, with upper case W and A), and the tagline underneath the wordmark: "The Free Encyclopedia."
The guidelines for the construction of the Wikipedia puzzle globe and wordmark can be found here. Localized versions of the puzzle globe and wordmark number in the hundreds and can be found on the Wikimedia Commons.
The new guidelines are intended to formalize the manner of constructing localized versions of the Wikipedia wordmark, and to provide consistency in their appearance across hundreds of different languages and international character sets.
The original Wikipedia wordmark was created with the Hoeffler typeface, designed by typographer Jonathan Hoeffler in 1991. Because Hoeffler is a commercial typeface, and because the Wikipedia wordmark would need to be recreated in hundreds of localized editions for the first time, the Wikimedia User Experience team introduced the open-source Linux Libertine typeface as an alternate for Hoeffler.
Leading up to the Wikipedia usability initiative roll-out in May 2010, the Wikimedia User Experience Team also decided to take the opportunity to review the readability and aesthetics of the Wikipedia wordmark. From the original version you can also see that the "The Free Encyclopedia" text is no longer italicized, an effort intended to make the text more readable on-screen. Italics are also irrelevant in many non-Roman character sets. The team also decreased the size of the re-designed puzzle globe and lifted it up slightly higher above the wordmark.
