:::The [[template:WikiLogoOf]] ''does'' work as designed, but granted it doesn't cope with instances such as when a wiki creates a newer updated logo. The template was designed (long before I started on WikiIndex) as a <u>consistent</u> way of categorising wiki logo. It also has the benefit of moving up the page the link of the wiki article it is used on (yes, some people are too lazy to scroll down the page! And other folks may just look at the picture and not actually be interested in looking to see where the image is used.) We can work around the issue of when it isn't used anymore, by simply adding a few words after the template indicating so. Please recheck [[:File:Asianmediawiki2.jpg]] and [[AsianWiki]] to see how I have implemented this. | :::The [[template:WikiLogoOf]] ''does'' work as designed, but granted it doesn't cope with instances such as when a wiki creates a newer updated logo.

:::Futhermore, the [[template:WikiLogoOf]] is of massive assistance when its article refers to an 'inactive' wiki which has its infobox template changed to [[template:Inactive]] - as that template strips away its identifying logo for the [[:File:Inactive.png]]!! | :::Futhermore, the [[template:WikiLogoOf]] is of massive assistance when its article refers to an 'inactive' wiki which has its infobox template changed to [[template:Inactive]] - as that template strips away its identifying logo for the [[:File:Inactive.png]]!! | ||
Oh, sure you don't get me around by this one! to remedy some of the violence of this notorious inactive-template with another fuzzy template is not what I call a solution. That bad template this destructor of information should be banned anyway. Who actually invented this bad thing?
