The site uses Wikifont icons created by Mun May Tee-Galloway.

The iconset has not been updated, but I suggest we continue developing it as an open source project. The font has been forked in https://github.com/Wikidocumentaries/WikiFont.

Let's list missing icons here first!

Context

The icons are used primarily in the header bar of each module. They can be buttons or menus, but the same icon are used in both cases.

Used and most needed icons

Metadata page

Caption

Equivalent to Structure Data on Commons caption

Description

To mark a longer text about an image. Used in the metadata editor.

Author (generic)

A creator icon, may be the same as the user icon. Different roles? For the metadata editor. Should imply a person.

Photographer (subtype of an author)

Marking the creator of the photograph (the original artwork) or the photographer of the faithful copy. These are very different legally, so changes are expected.
