[change] Logo issue

The Simple English Wiktionary currently uses the tiles logo for the sidebar. This was decided during the first logo content that was carried out on their project, Meta-Wiki. However, due to the rejection of the new logo by the English Wiktionary, another logo vote was being carried out at Meta-Wiki, which thus had the book logo (pictured) for Wiktionary as the winner. A similar logo vote was carried out on the Simple English Wiktionary on November 30, 2010 and the community decided the new logo to become their logo.[2] However, no changes were made to the logo and the discussion was thus forgotten.
