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.
Most needed icons
Metadata page
- Description
To mark a longer text about an image. Used in the metadata editor.

- Photographer, author
A creator icon, may be the same as the user icon. Different roles? For the metadata editor. Should imply a person.
- Topic / tag / depicted
Tag icon is often needed. It is used most prominently in the metadata editor.
- Depicted person
The depicted person could be different from the author. Could be a person in a frame.
- Depicted place
The depicted place is currently marked with location pin. It works well.
