Forum:Article icon system

You know how articles with unofficial titles have a in their top right corner while featured articles have a File:Smashwiki feature icon.png? Well, I just had the idea to put similar icons in articles that denote the article's game(s) of focus. So Mario (SSB) would have a , wavedash would have a , Cracker Launcher would have a , Green Greens would have both the SSBM and SSBB icons, and so on. I've seen this kind of system in use on other wikis to differentiate content from different areas without having to be so explicit about it in the page content (for example: the Star Wars wiki, Wookiepedia, uses it to show what era in the timeline an article's content is from). Would this idea have any merit here? Toomai Glittershine The Chilled 16:25, 8 June 2011 (EDT)

Looks cool. And how did you make them?--Wolf rulez! File:StarFoxSymbol.png Star Fox 07:42, 9 June 2011 (EDT)

I'd be up for this. Miles (talk) 14:28, 9 June 2011 (EDT)

Seems like a good idea. Unknown the Hedgehog 14:46, 9 June 2011 (EDT)

I'll support, but we never resolved this issue. Is it just an issue with my browser of do these templates need to be adjusted? DoctorPain99

To catch any browser problems right now, I've added the proof of concept to this page. removed to avoid accidental categorization Toomai Glittershine The Honcho 15:35, 9 June 2011 (EDT)

This appears to be working better than the oversized unofficial lingo template we have right now. DoctorPain99

Not much else to say other than I support this idea. Omega Tyrant 18:12, 9 June 2011 (EDT)

Alright then, it's been implemented as {{ArticleIcons}}. Toomai Glittershine The Bold 11:21, 14 June 2011 (EDT)

Still to be done

This is as of a couple of hours ago, for the record - it took me a while to parse out the ones that have been {{ArticleIcons}}ed already and give them a cursory sort. Note that a lot of these need an |unofficial=y even if they don't have the old template. - Reboot (talk) 13:19, 27 June 2011 (EDT)
