This is a proposal to standardize the icons used in templates and MediaWiki messages on the English Wikipedia. The current icon scheme is an inconsistent combination of Nuvola and Nuvola-based icons, Tango and Tango-based icons, icons created for en.wikipedia (such as the original "Stop Hand" and "Octagon Warning" images, now replaced by "Web 2.0"-style Nuvola-based icons), and several failed standardization schemes (including the "ambox" icons and "Norro style 1").
The following examples can be looked at for inspiration:
| Icons for (speedy) deletion templates shall use the color derived from the hex code b32322. | Serious |
| Icons for templates for major warnings and problems (content issues, etc.) shall use the color derived from the hex code ed8406. | Content |
| Icons for templates for minor warnings and problems (content issues, etc.) shall use the color derived from the hex code f2cd40. | Style |
| Icons for templates for page notices shall use the color derived from the hex code 3165ab. | Notice |
| Icons for templates for merge, split and transwiki proposal notices shall use the color derived from the hex code 8b34bc. | Merge |
| Icons for protection notice templates shall use the color derived from the hex code 9fa7b5. | Protection |
