The "Florida Gators logo.svg" file is a trademark image owned by the University Athletic Association, Inc. It is not licensed to be used on Wikipedia, but, rather, it may be included in the main Wikipedia article covering the University of Florida's Florida Gators program under a "fair use" rationale. In addition to federal and state trademark and copyright law, all Wikipedia use of the Gator head logo must comply with Wikipedia policies regarding the fair use of non-free trademark and other copyrighted images, photographs, and other materials. Uses of the Gator head logo that do not comply with Wikipedia policy are subject to immediate deletion. As part of a compromise to restrict the use of the Gator head logo as a non-free image on Wikipedia, this version of the Gator head logo is only approved for use on the main article for the Florida Gators program, and not on season pages, bowl game pages, notable game pages, rivalry pages, or the individual pages of Florida Gators coaches and athletes. Any such additional unauthorized uses of the Gator head logo are subject to immediate deletion. Please see WP:NFCC for more information regarding the criteria for the use of non-free content and certain restrictions on its use within Wikipedia.

This should be interpreted as not using this logo within the University of Florida main article, or any other article related to the University of Florida outside of Florida Gators sports program main article, as previously described. Thanks. Dirtlawyer1 (talk) 05:04, 3 January 2016 (UTC)Reply
