Is how to show a '''Font Awesome''' icon. Which looks like this: <i class="fa fa-rocket fa-6" aria-hidden="true"> === Problems ===But there is a dependency and some bugsthat have to be tracked down with regard to using it on a wiki site. # Font Awesome only seems to work if there is an actual image on the page. For example, this is an edit icon from a normal svg file. [[Image:Edit icon.svg|30px]]. Remove that and your Font Awesome icon will disappear. And FA doesn't work if I close the tag properly. And the '''i''' element is duplicated if you put a br tag near it. Note: the image file doesn't even have to exist, it's just that the image processing code is not called unless there is a <nowiki>[[File:]]</nowiki> tag in the wikitext.# And FA doesn't work if I close the tag properly. # The '''fa''' element is duplicated throughout the rest of the page since it wasn't closed.  === Getting it ===# Sign up for a unique embed code.# Add the script source to your wiki by editing the [[MediaWiki:Common.js]] file where you add a call to 'load' the external script <code><nowiki>mw.loader.load('//use.fontawesome.com/14c71d3de0.js');</nowiki></code># Insert the <code><nowiki><i></nowiki></code> tags where ever you want. Note that there are various sizes pre-defined as fa-1 (smallest) to fa-6 (largest)
