Summary
[edit]Description |
This is the logo for Vertical Communications. |
---|---|
Source |
The logo is from the following website: http://www.vertical.com/images/verticallogo.gif |
Article | |
Portion used |
The entire logo is used to convey the meaning intended and avoid tarnishing or misrepresenting the intended image. |
Low resolution? |
The logo is of a size and resolution sufficient to maintain the quality intended by the company or organization, without being unnecessarily high resolution. |
Purpose of use |
The image is placed in the infobox at the top of the article discussing Vertical Communications, a subject of public interest. The significance of the logo is to help the reader identify the organization, assure the readers that they have reached the right article containing critical commentary about the organization, and illustrate the organization's intended branding message in a way that words alone could not convey. |
Replaceable? |
The company logo, which is a small stylistic "V" followed by the name (vertical, lower case v) with a (TM) is displayed in a thumbnail sketch. This use is within a small part of the InfoBox. Deleting the stylistic "V" might serve the same purpose, but also might be harming their logo: somewhat like taking the top off the "o" of Cola, in Coca Cola - not likely to prevent legal action but, on the contrary, be adding risk. In short, the "No free equivalent" seems like the best answer. The "Vertical Communications" article would not be improved by removing the image, and another article would not have the same rationale. Pi314m (talk) 17:32, 3 June 2019 (UTC) |
