Moved from "Memory Alpha:Images for deletion" (8/2/06) - Kept
(Sickle_clean.jpg deleted.)


 * Found these in the unused files gallery, wondered if we need them, or if they are unique to the site in a way that it would only appear that they are not being used? File:Search logo.png and File:Favicon.ico are included here, but wouldn't appear in the above gallery. --Alan del Beccio 06:03, 30 June 2006 (UTC)


 * Comment The first one looks like the thing used in Ten Forward. It is put to the left of new forums. The middle one I have no idea. The one on the right, based entirely on its name and no other evidence, looks to me like something one of the "WP is communism" things our friendly neighborhood vandals add. "Search logo" seems not to exist, even when I click on the file. "Favicon" seems to have a warning on malicious code, so I won't open it, but my guess is that it is the same as "search logo", nothing. --OuroborosCobra 08:04, 1 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Comment: The image at the right was something Cid uploaded to replace the hammer & sickle emblem of the Communist party which our late Commie vandal uploaded over and over again. --From Andoria with Love 08:14, 1 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Keep the torpedo definitly, but the sickle I'm undecided on. I'm assuming we've kept it this long so that someone can revert something a vandal uploads to it, but its a fair chance a vandal would realize that and upload it at a new location. - AJ Halliwell 05:35, 10 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Update: Delete the sickle. - AJ Halliwell 02:39, 1 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Another Update: Did the image of the Happy sickle come from Wikipedia? (Understanding it's purpose) we can either delete it, and upload and protect it later (what I prefer), or I would suggest replacing it with something more neutral-trek, like the MA logo, or the insignia of the Federation. - AJ Halliwell 16:44, 2 August 2006 (UTC)


 * A little late, but anyway... Definitely keep the torpedo image, as it is being used. Should be noted on that image description page, if it isn't already. As Shran correctly mentioned, I uploaded the other one to actually have a page to protect - can't do that with a deleted page. At the time, it seemed to be a bot uploading a vandalistic image to the same location over and over, so uploading and protecting something made sense. It doesn't need to be kept indefinitely, now that that specific vandal attack is long over. -- Cid Highwind 22:22, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

New PNG version
I've made a PNG version of this icon at File:Ma forum new.png. The transparency is cleaner. --bp 04:38, April 9, 2010 (UTC)
