In-Credit Logo Issues

On the page, it states that it won't include in-credit text, but then does the 1985 Disney Television Animation logo make it onto the list? The page specifically states it's an in-credit text. Additionally, the 1967 Motion Picture Association logo has not been added yet, but I'm not sure if that would be considered in-credit, as well as the 1957 International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees logo.

I was kind of conflicted with the Disney Television Animation one since the Disney print logo was used on that notice for a while but it initially started as an in-credit text logo. I'll might as well remove that.
Also, the MPA and IATSE ones are logos since they use a symbol unlike in-credit text. Generally they are in-credit but may also sometimes appear as on-screen logos. Camenati (talk) 18:44, 31 July 2022 (UTC)
Thanks for changing it. However, it also makes me curious if the 1994-present Sony Computer/Interactive Entertainment logo counts, or any logos that are in a similar style. Jecken (talk) 19:15, 31 July 2022 (UTC)
Come to think of it, maybe plain text doesn't necessarily count even as an on-screen logo. However, the SEK Studio logo has the same distinct appearance throughout its usage, so I think it counts as a logo. Camenati (talk) 19:23, 31 July 2022 (UTC)
Thanks again! Jecken (talk) 19:36, 31 July 2022 (UTC)

Just so you know

I moved Super Star Rajni (India) to its current name and tweaked the dates of the first logo (the one that is the long-runner). I believe it wasn't used non-stop, rather that it was used through the 90s and early 2000s and got revived in the late 2010s. AlmightyKingPrawn (talk) 23:38, 2 August 2022 (UTC)

I just made a page for a logo I feel was previously undiscovered by the community, Madcap Productions. I don't know its exact lifespan but I believe it has been in use since 2014 and is still used today. AlmightyKingPrawn (talk) 15:17, 17 August 2022 (UTC)
The list has logos that doesn't have an exact debut date/year, but not logos from 2014 (for now). Camenati (talk) 15:21, 17 August 2022 (UTC)
Oops, forgot. Time to come back in 2024 :P AlmightyKingPrawn (talk) 16:16, 17 August 2022 (UTC)

Missing Logos and Other Issues

There are still tons of other missing logos that need to be added. Those being the HBO Documentary Films logo from the mid-2000s, the 2007 TF1 Video logo, the 2009 Stage 6 Films logo, the 2009 Spider Eye Productions logo, and the 2012 Blumhouse Productions logo. Additionally, there is an issue on the list where the 1998 The Pokémon Company logo is in the 2006 part of the list, and the 2006 The Pokémon Company logo isn't even on the list. Jecken (talk) 19:50, 3 August 2022 (UTC) Also Avenue Pictures should be on their too since it says its been used since 1987 and Steven Bochco Productions has been used since 1989.

Thought I would add to this topic by mentioning some more changes that could be implemented:
- The 1997 Medusa Home Entertainment logo is confirmed to have ended use in 2008
- The Digital Factory logo now has a debut date of May 19, 2000
- The EuropaCorp logo (which is now the 2nd on its page) debuted in September 2001
- The 2008 Protocol Entertainment logo was first seen on September 7th that year
- The 2011 Deep Silver logo was first seen on September 6th that year
These are all minor, but yeah. Just helpin' out. PM pinter (talk) 20:31, 17 August 2022 (UTC)

Aurum should be cut

As the article itself states, the company was folded into Entertainment One in 2013, so the logo is no longer in use. AlmightyKingPrawn (talk) 00:47, 9 August 2022 (UTC)

One you forgot

Yellow Bird (Sweden) has been in use since January 14, 2005. AlmightyKingPrawn (talk) 06:28, 31 August 2022 (UTC)

I just did a lot of cleanup on Pentrex. As someone with zero interest in trains I cannot confirm, but allegedly they have been using the same logo since 1996. AlmightyKingPrawn (talk) 23:33, 18 September 2022 (UTC)

This List Needs Major Changes

There are TONS of changes that still need to be added to the list, as seen on the list I created on my test page. I'm not sure if the 1996 Disney Enterprises logo should be on this list though, as while it was once on its own screen, nowadays, it is in-credit. Also, the places those three logos have to move from are located on 1989 for the 1995 Walt Disney Records logo, June 27, 1997 for the Ghibli ga Ippai Collection logo that presumably started to be used on August 1, 1996, and May 19 for the Digital Factory logo from March 29, 2000. Jecken (talk) 18:28, 4 September 2022 (UTC)

Thanks for changing the list. If you want to, you can add some more. I did leave out logos that had no images (with obvious exceptions), logos that had no images or video, or logos that could be considered IDs. If you want to add some of those, you can let me know. Jecken (talk) 19:38, 4 September 2022 (UTC)
Did you notice that the date for the 2000 Digital Factory logo is out of order? (The logo should be placed in between the 2000 Ecosse Films logo and the 2000 Fabrica logo.) Jecken (talk) 19:47, 4 September 2022 (UTC)
You also messed up several other items on the list. The 2008 Bill Maher Productions logo debuted on January 11, not January 1. The current 21st Century Pictures logo is from 2002, so that needs to be moved from the "2000s" area. Finally, the 2011 Cake Entertainment logo now has "2011?" as its starting year instead of "2011". Additionally, I'm not sure if you should place the Annenberg Learner logo before or after the 2008 Aeroplane Productions logo, due to the fact that you seemed to put them in order based alphabetically rather than by their debut dates. The Dovzhenko Film Studio logo from the late 2000s is placed before the Atlas Film logo from the 2000s, which I'm guessing is because you put those in order by going off the dates. The "Late 1990s" and "1990s" sections seem to be in order by going off the dates too. Jecken (talk) 20:17, 4 September 2022 (UTC)
Thanks a bunch! Jecken (talk) 21:25, 4 September 2022 (UTC)
Btw add the 1991 Sofa Entertainment logo and the 1987 Gracie Films logo if you get a chance Neelyryan95 (talk) 21:28, 1 November 2022 (UTC)

Turn this into a project page?

I am willing to give everyone permission to edit this page, but since this is a userpage, only I can make changes to the list myself. The thing is, I have not updated the list that much compared to the first several weeks of my version of this list's existence and it's tough keeping it up to date alone. Camenati (talk) 05:47, 9 January 2023 (UTC)

This is something the entire community can contribute to, and keeping it on one person's userpage prevents that collaboration from happening. As such I'm saying yes. (name change coming soon) 05:50, 9 January 2023 (UTC)
Per ministrycraft. Logohub (talk) 06:53, 9 January 2023 (UTC)
I'm also saying yes to this. AlmightyKingPrawn (talk) 14:47, 9 January 2023 (UTC)
I understand if you get a chance though someone needs to put the 1985 Sunsoft Games logo as well as changing the 2000 Ragdoll logo from July 31 to June 5 Neelyryan95 (talk) 20:51, 17 January 2023 (UTC)
It's now a project page so that means you can add it in without asking anyone. Camenati (talk) 20:53, 17 January 2023 (UTC)
