Be carefull, there are copyright and trademark concerns with official logos, and you must have a fair use rationale for each use of the image. Thanks, [[User:JDano|JDano]] ([[User talk:JDano|talk]]) 07:16, 13 October 2016 (EDT)

:Agreed, that's a bit questionable and a little risky.  We could just do like Wikipedia, and claim it is in the Public Domain, but it is a registered trademark and they certainly claim copyright on it.  In the court of law, perhaps Wikipedia could win, but I doubt it.  We could also claim "Fair Use" but this is a poorly defined clause, and could be legally challenged as well.  WP gets away with it, but there are a lot of people who want CP gone, so the liberal [[double standard]] may apply here. This isn't my site, so I'm probably not the one might end up in legal quagmire over it if I did the upload, but I'd rather not risk making a mess for someone else to clean up.  If an admin feels differently, though, that's fine with me. --[[User:DavidB4|<font color="ForestGreen">David B</font>]] <sup><small>([[User talk:DavidB4|TALK]])</small></sup> 13:04, 13 October 2016 (EDT)
