You have the right to use marks to:

This policy also allows you to use marks:

1. On the Wikimedia sites.

2. Outside the Wikimedia sites when you:

· Organize a Wikimedia community-focused event;
· Do outreach and recruit new editors; or
· Place marks on t-shirts, cakes, and other things without selling them.

Please always comply with the Visual Identity Guidelines.

YES, but first...

please sign a Quick License

Sorry, NO.

Not for linking to non-Wikimedia sites, or

otherwise misleading others.
