Games Workshop logo
[edit]Logo of the British company Games Workshop. The threshold of originality is very low for UK works, see COM:TOO UK. The text itself is stylised, including distinctive individual letters (such as the triangular A, pointed M, and extended and angled cut of P), compressed letters with distinctive overlapping (the A and M), embossing (in a different colour to the letters) which considers a light source to the left and slightly above horizontal / shadowing, and black outlining. It is therefore likely to be eligible for copyright protection in its country of origin (the UK) due to its originality, making the files ineligible to be hosted on Commons (using {{PD-textlogo}}) as the logo must in the public domain in at least the United States and in the source country of the work (see Commons:Licensing). Please note that w:en:File:Games Workshop logo.svg is already marked that it should not be moved to Commons due to its copyright status in its source country. mattbr 09:54, 9 October 2021 (UTC)
- It would appear this should be deleted. It is not public domain and shouldn't be in the commons. It should be only be uploaded to a wiki as fair use only. Correct me if I'm wrong. Leitmotiv (talk) 22:56, 9 October 2021 (UTC)
- Delete all. Clearly has creative elements, and I believe this would not be PD in the United States either. It sometimes seems like any file consisting of words, no matter how stylized, gets called a textlogo on here. This needs to change. 69.174.144.79 01:50, 28 November 2021 (UTC)
