Introduction
[edit]Hello, Wikipedia! Wouldn't it be great if there were a bot that could replace all our GIFs with PNGs and present images in SVG where appropriate? Well, unfortunately, there isn't; but we do have web users who are passionate about sensible image standards. I am just one such user. I love the inherent beauty of well-designed formats like SVG (and PNG!) and feel that Wikipedia has a key role to play in their promotion.
Every time I see a logo in an infobox that is without alpha transparency or was clearly simply the first logo found on an organisation's homepage, I will try to improve the situation. I hope I don't step on any toes in my eagerness; I'm not here to challenge the rules, so please don't hesitate to tell me if I seem to be flouting Wiki etiquette, I won't take it personally.
