Sound logo of Wikimedia (including Wikipedia)[1]

The logo of the online encyclopedia Wikipedia depicts a white, incomplete globe-shaped jigsaw puzzle, each jigsaw piece inscribed with a glyph from a different writing system. As displayed on the web pages of the English-language edition of the project, there is the wordmark "WIKIPEDIA" (styled as WikipediA (in small caps, with the leading W and trailing A taller than the other letters)) beside the globe, and below that, the text "The Free Encyclopedia" in the open-source Linux Libertine font.[2][3]

The unfinished puzzle symbolizes the project's state as a perpetual work in progress.
