There is honestly no reason that President Obama's logo should have a seperate article, it's only a logo, and no other presidents have a seperate page for their logo. I believe that, maybe at most, the logo should have a section on Obama's article, and not its own article. 76.236.121.75 (talk) 18:28, 9 June 2011 (UTC)


 * It was distinctive, and became very well-known in a way that hasn't quite occurred before in U.S. presidential politics... AnonMoos (talk) 12:41, 9 August 2011 (UTC)

Copyrights
Forget all the copyright-blah. Look for "agenda-glas" in Google-Pics. This is incredibly brazen plagiarism there since 2008 and nobody cares! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.221.209.48 (talk) 12:30, 9 August 2011 (UTC)


 * A conceptual resemblance does not count for too much, and the main inspiration for the Obama logo was obviously fitting a simplified version of the United States flag into a letter "O"... AnonMoos (talk) 16:10, 27 August 2012 (UTC)

Oppose merge
Articles like this exist so that the main Barack Obama article doesn't become horrendously long and difficult to organize. See further the comment of "12:41, 9 August 2011" above... AnonMoos (talk) 10:55, 25 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Since the editor who added the merge tag didn't initiate a discussion, I've replaced it with a new proposal that this page be merged to Barack Obama presidential campaign, 2008. That was the campaign for which the logo was originally created, so that's the best place for this information. The 2012 campaign article can simply note that the same logo is being reused.

 * Oh, looks like he did start a discussion at Talk:Barack Obama. It was met with unanimous opposition and lost in the archives. So, same difference. DoctorKubla (talk) 21:38, 4 August 2012 (UTC)
 * Maybe best to remove the merge tag; not sure why it wasn't done before... AnonMoos (talk) 16:45, 5 August 2012 (UTC)
 * No further relevant discussion, removed merge tag. AnonMoos (talk) 16:14, 27 August 2012 (UTC)

Katy Perry dress
On Nov. 3rd 2012, Katy Perry wore a dress with the Obama logo on it... -- AnonMoos (talk) 22:44, 5 November 2012 (UTC)

Proposed merge with Sol Sender
Sender's sourcing indicates that he is solely known for the logo. Sources do not cover his biographical life or work separately from the logo. Thus he should be covered within the scope of the logo's article and only split out summary style as warranted by sources. czar 17:01, 4 October 2017 (UTC)
 * Oppose "Sender's sourcing"?  What does that mean?  Do you perchance mean, "the state of a mere Wikipedia article, on one day in October"? That's not the measure of a man.  If he, as a long-established designer (and I don't think you get invited to design a presidential logo otherwise), had done only this, then you might have a point. But if you claim "Not listed in Wikipedia means it didn't happen", as your edits seem to present everything, then that is quite wrong. What if he's done something else? What if he's a senior partner at a major design house?  What if he happened to have been a founding director at IBM's Design Lab? Or if he's the sort of visiting academic who's invited to contribute the odd chapter for Steven Heller's new book Teaching Graphic Design?
 * But you haven't considered the possibility of any of this, have you? You just blank articles regardless. Andy Dingley (talk) 17:15, 4 October 2017 (UTC)
 * Great, let's see your sources then czar  18:46, 4 October 2017 (UTC)


 * For posterity, everything in the Sender article is already duplicated in toto within this logo article, so there's nothing to merge, only redirect. czar  05:54, 2 November 2017 (UTC)
