The header provides some info about the logo's lifespan: The first set of question marks are used to identify if the logo is the 1st in the article, 2nd, 3rd, and so on. The second set is used to signify any '''official''' nicknames for the logo. The third set is to signify what year the logo is introduced. Remember, if specific dates are available, use those. If the logo is still being used today, omit the fourth question mark set, otherwise insert the year/date the logo was last used. | The header provides some info about the logo's lifespan: The first set of question marks are used to identify if the logo is the 1st in the article, 2nd, 3rd, and so on.

The third set is to signify what year the logo is introduced. Remember, if specific dates are available, use those. If the logo is still being used today, omit the fourth question mark set, otherwise insert the year/date the logo was last used. Additionally, the set has to cover the logo's official lifespan, meaning where the logo officially debuted and ended. The following will not factor into the logo's lifespan: | |||
* Trailers and TV spots | |||
* Premieres at film festivals and other similar events | |||
* Home media releases (for film and television only) | |||
* Unreleased media (e.g. beta builds of video games) | |||
* A news article, webpage, or video revealing the new logo | |||
However, if the logo made its only appearance on any of the above options, then they can be counted into their lifespans. They are also permitted to be mentioned in the Availability section if necessary. Also, dates in which the logo was used or revived for a brief period of time should not be included unless if it has seen normal use since. If the dates are close to each other in terms of time, then they can be consolidated into one lifespan. A logo that briefly returned 10 years after the time it was retired will not include the newer date in the header. | |||
There is a simplified way to do this; the <code><nowiki>{{Ordinal}}</nowiki></code> template. When adding logos, simply add the number you're up to into this template (1, 2, etc.) and it will automatically change to 1st, 2nd, etc. This template simplifies the process of re-adding the suffixes (st, nd, rd, th) to the numbers if a logo is removed or relocated on the page for some reason. | There is a simplified way to do this; the <code><nowiki>{{Ordinal}}</nowiki></code> template.
