Don't forget to ''italicize'' titles (or use "quotation marks" for episode names of television shows) from where the logo can be found.
*To help determine the availability of a logo, we've provided the below scale at your disposal. Remember, you are NOT required to mention a tier from the scale in this section. Preferably, only use this scale if the rarity of a logo is notable. The scale is as follows:
*If there is little to no information to which films/shows the logo has appeared, you may want to use the "Unknown" label at the beginning of the section.
**'''Ultra common/Extremely common''': Either this logo is found on nearly all shows/movies released from this company, or it plasters a large amount of older logos on newer prints.
**'''Very common/Common''': This logo is found on newer releases of shows/movies of that company, or is seen/intact on reruns, home media releases or streaming prints.
**'''Uncommon''': While not too common, this logo may be found on a few releases/prints of films/shows of that company.
**'''Rare/Very rare''': This logo isn't found too often; it only appears on a small number of releases/prints from the company.
**'''Extremely rare/Ultra rare''': This logo is extremely hard to come by; it only appears on old releases/prints that haven't been widely distributed.
**'''Near extinction/Extinct''': This logo is no longer current, and/or it has been replaced with newer logos on later prints. Likely can be found on older releases/prints.
**'''Unknown''': Very little information is known on which films/shows the logo has appeared.
**'''Unused''': This logo has not been used officially by the company.
**'''Current''': This logo is currently being used by the company.
**'''Brand new''': This logo debuted within the past few months.
*Please note that some factors may affect if a logo is actually "rare" or not. For example. older home video logos that at first could be considered "rare" may potentially be found on many prints, if one knows where to look.
*When describing where logos are found, include specific examples where possible.
