SVG file not rendering

[Ben Boldt]

I noticed that this template shows a link to an SVG image instead of actually rendering and displaying the SVG image:

https://wiki.nesdev.com/w/index.php/Tem ... umentation

svg_as_link.png

Where it says "File:Template-info.svg", it is supposed to actually be showing the info icon/graphic. Visiting the SVG file location itself also does not render the SVG properly. It gives a generic berzier curve graphic:

https://wiki.nesdev.com/w/index.php/Fil ... e-info.svg


Clicking that generic graphic brings you to the actual SVG file, which your browser directly rasterizes into the info icon, and it does work properly for me at that point. It should look like this:

info_svg.png

So, thinking there might be something wrong with the SVG file that the wiki can't render for some reason, I downloaded a more recent version of this same SVG file from Wikipedia and uploaded it here. The NESdev wiki still can't render the newer version either. So my guess is that SVG rendering is broken in our wiki.

This isn't a big deal; we don't use a lot of SVG in this wiki, but wanted to let you guys know about the issue.

As casually documented, this has been broken since forever (or at least from 2013). I failed to report this issue when I found out about it back in 2014.
