Currently the Wikimedia favicon (used on Foundation sites as well as other projects and pages without their own specific logos/favicons) is quite blurry and artifacted: https://wikimediafoundation.org/favicon.ico Could someone with access to that be a dear and update it with this, which is much clearer and thus better maintains the visual identity of the organisation? https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/81/Wikimedia-logo.svg/16px-Wikimedia-logo.svg.png It will need to be converted to .ico, but that's pretty trivial with GIMP or the like (I can do that part if needed).
For the record, the favicon in question is in use on the following wikis: advisory comcom foundation grants langcom otrs-wiki searchcom wikimania wikimania2005 wikimania2006 wikimania2007 wikimania2008 wikimania2009 wikimaniateam wikimedia.org www.wikidata.org Isarra, could you go ahead and create a suitable replacement?
One of these should work: http://gardenofremembering.org/projects/unreal/wmfavicon1.ico - white background http://gardenofremembering.org/projects/unreal/wmfavicon2.ico - transparent background

The favicon has since been updated, but remains not entirely fixed - it is still slightly distorted and using inconsistent colours, with a bit of a grey outline on some of the shapes, rather like someone tried to manually cut it out of the old one. While this is at least an improvement, could someone please update it to use one of the rendered versions included here or render one from the svg itself using a reasonably accurate renderer for any desired manual tweaking? Thanks.

Assigning this to Ori, as he's a shell user who can push this out when appropriate.
Bugzilla cleverly discarded my other changes (adding two keywords and actually assigning the bug) after throwing an error about how I need to add a comment when changing a bug from unconfirmed to assigned. Cute. Properly assigning the bug and adding two keywords ("easy" and "design"). And I guess I should add "shell" too. I'll do that too.
