[Design] Official colors for the Wikimedia world

[David Abián]

Hi, designers.

Are the official colors for the Wikimedia world described somewhere? I
guess that they are, for the WMF logo and others, #900, #069 and #396,
but I can also find some of them that show #AC2D1F, #005C93 and #007B4F
(the old ones?), like the horizontal version for the WMF logo.[1]

Should I update this logo? Official colors are #900, #069 and #396?

Thanks in advance.

Hi David,

Please don't make any changes to logo colors at this time.

Thank you for looking into it,
Heather

David,

The logo you link to has pms in its filename and are propbably optimised to
produce as accurate colours as possible when printed with that colour
system. That the web RGB is off does not matter.

Ok, thank you both. :-)

Anyway, is there any page where those colors are described? I believe it
would be a good idea to include them on [[wmf:Visual identity
guidelines]]...

It seems they have been deliberatly moved from there, but they are still
kept in an archive:
