Icon request: zhihu

[L1cardo]

What can it be used for?
This is a new icon for zhihu, except for fab fa-zhihu.
The origin zhihu icon is two Chinese character and it may be to wide in some situation. We need a new zhihu icon.

Icon request checklist

• [single] This is a single icon or matched pair (Ex: lock / unlock)
• [yes] The title starts with "Icon request: " and is followed by the requested icon name (Ex: Icon request: magical-unicorn)
• [yes] I have searched for existing issues and to the best of my knowledge this is not a duplicate
• [yes] I have included at least one example image if it could be helpful (optional)
• [yes] The request is for a concrete object (it's harder to make an icon to represent happiness, it's easier to make a smiley face. ☺)

I support this. As a further reference, here is the favicon:

Hi!

Thanks for being part of the Font Awesome Community, thanks for reporting this and sorry for the late reply.

I can definitely see the single-character icon in the favicon, but are there any official brand guidelines for Zhihu?

[L1cardo]

I do not know if this is ok? https://www.zhihu.com/terms#sec-licence
I did not find any other stuff related to brand guidelines

Hi @tagliala,

unfortunately it looks like Zhihu (like a lot of other Chinese companies) does not have a comprehensive brand guideline.

Do you need it for the rights to the icon or for the guideline to the look?

About the rights, here is a translated snippet from the source added by @L1cardo:

About the looks, I think the only other indicator I can give would be the results on the Chinese website iconfont.cn:

• https://www.iconfont.cn/search/index?q=知乎
• https://www.iconfont.cn/search/index?q=zhihu

The majority of the icons is using the single character representation with only the "知“. But as far as I can see, there doesn't seem to be any rule that tells whether e.g. the background needs to be filled or what color/shape the background should have if present.

Hope it helps?
