Comments [edit]

 * My comments:
 * I prefer "MediaWiki" over "mediawiki" because CamelCase is part of the current brand, and I can't see any reason to throw it out. The original WikiWikiWeb software used CamelCase to delineate page titles before bracketed links were a thing, and I guess CamelCase is still associated with programming and tech. It makes it obvious that "MW" would be the way to abbreviate the name. Besides, having a name that begins with a lowercase letter creates all sorts of minor inconveniences, like how to refer to it at the beginning of a sentence.
 * I prefer the yellow design because it most closely resembles the existing sunflower design, and it would be a good way to reference the original branding in a design that otherwise is almost completely different. After this, I ranked red/purple (it looks decent), red/green/blue (because it references Wikimedia's brand colors, but this could be a downside too), and then black (because it looks boring to me).
 * I don't know how much I really care about the translucency. I slightly prefer solid to translucent maybe.
