Description

Background goal

[2023-01-31 13:50:19 PST] catrope:~/git/codex/packages/codex-icons/src/images (main)$ wc -c logo-*
   828 logo-CC.svg
  4819 logo-MediaWiki.svg
  3258 logo-MetaWiki.svg
  1091 logo-Wikibooks.svg
   423 logo-Wikidata.svg

Most icon SVGs are a couple hundred bytes. Some of the logos are bit bigger, a couple of kilobytes, which is fine. But the Wiktionary logo is 20KB, and the Wikinews logo is 204KB. These icons also contain way too much detail to be useful as 20x20px icons.

We should make the Wikinews logo SVG smaller. It makes up 0.37% of all icons by number (1 of 273), but 59.7% by volume (206KB out of 346KB). In other words, adding this one icon made the icons package 2.5x bigger. We should also try to make the Wiktionary logo smaller, but that one isn't quite as absurdly large as the Wikinews icon.

SVG icons

They will be added here once they are done.

Acceptance criteria (or done)
  • Design a simplified version of the logo in 20x20px

This needs to be fixed and deployed as a matter of urgency. VE is loading this module and so this will be causing a significant performance regression.

If there are no users other than the requesters in the original task, this can just be reverted and downstreamed until a more acceptable upstream solution is agreed upon.

Wikinews logo would now be 25kb gzipped with the less detailed version.

888701 features abstracted Wikinews logo from https://www.figma.com/file/NxMgGOrKSiNExRgD6qHU74/Wikinews-logo?node-id=40:207&t=OZk6STeTp0gWS35V-0 (Option #3)

That seems to be acceptable to me for logo representation at 20dp, given that we also use globe abstraction in MetaWiki logo. And it's only 685 bytes gzipped.
