 * Templates should be self contained and avoid calling other templates (unless absolutely necessary).
 * Templates which include CSS calls in their design should mention so. Generally it's best avoided, unless the CSS classes exist as standard.
 * For icons use vector graphics where possible. A good source for these is Wikimedia Commons' Category:Icons by subject. Miraheze wikis are instant commons enabled, otherwise these images would have to be uploaded locally.
