(legal) mysic.org and wikipedia's trademarks

(apologies if this is the wrong list: wikilegal-l doesn't appear to
exist anymore)

Someone pointed me to http://mysic.org/ and asked how they could join
Wikipedia's "affiliates program".

Unless someone has approved this I'm guessing mysic's use of
wikipedia's non GFDL logo, and use of the trademark in this manner,
may be infringing.

Sorry, that wasn't clear. Read "someone unaffiliated with mysic asked
me how they too might join the affiliates program".
