The use of non-free images in galleries is generally discouraged. There are rare cases where such galleries can be appropriate. This is not one of them. Such galleries fail WP:NFCC #8, in that there is no accompanying secondary sourced discussion regarding the logos. That a particular historical logo is associated with a party isn't in dispute. Whether it is noteworthy enough to be encyclopedic is, and without any secondary sourced discussion pointing to that, the case isn't made. Regardless, such use in a gallery is precluded by such discussion (which is absent anyway). I've reverted your re-insertion of the non-free media gallery. Please do NOT restore it again. If you dispute this, please feel free to get a second opinion at WT:NFC. Thank you, -- Hammersoft ( talk) 02:54, 17 June 2011 (UTC)

Hey Soman - I figured I'd give you a heads up, we just put up a little blurb about you on the Wikipedia [facebook.com/wikipedia Facebook page] and on @Wikipedia on identi.ca.

Hey Soman, I could use your help. I wanted to deny a speedy on Adolph Bermbach, so I went ahead and found a few things, and before I knew it I had to write Cologne Communist Trial. There's great potential in that article, as I'm sure you know; DYK is the least of it. Anyway, you know how to write these things and it's your turf, so I thought I'd give you a shot at it. Thanks, Drmies ( talk) 02:36, 23 June 2011 (UTC)

Your edit on Freedom Flotilla II was based on demonizing one side as "armchair racists". I'm sorry, but that is way off from anything resembling a NPOV.
Please try to remember that wikipedia is based upon a WP:NPOV
