Hello; please see the below link, where we are discussing errors in the logo for the purpose of fixing them. I have raised your issue there already. I couldn’t quite figure out which characters those are in your correction, please write on the page there to let us know. Thank you!

I dont think you should go around calling Sanskrit the mother of Kannada dude! If you say something on the web, please present substantial (usable) proof of that stuff! Else, dont say it.

At least because of the fact that there exists no proof of Sanskrit being the mother of Kannada language, I claim that Sanskrit is not the mother of Kannada. Besides there are several researches done (which I am sure you can trace in wikipedia) to prove this very point – Kannada and Sanskrit are of different TYPES and they cant be related at all. Its just that the new-age kannada that I and you use have incorporated a lot of (unwanted) Sanskrit terms for which we DO HAVE kannada equivalents.

Anyway, certainly thank you for the interest in pointing out error related to kannada “wi” on the wiki logo. Thanks!

I had blogged about this, too. Read:

It is not that the incorrect Kannada character was not spotted earlier. The problem is that the logo is some sort of Trademark belonging to Wikimedia foundation and hence there is tough chance of the change happening soon.

Hey I noticed one more error – Do you see the Inverted ‘N’ just below the English ‘W’ on the logo? Thats the Russian language and does not mean ‘Wi’. It is just the equivalent of english letter ‘I’. ‘Wi’ in Russian would be ‘BN’ (of course the inverted ‘N’, but I dont have it on my keyboard). Phewww… these wiki guys are really language illiterate…
