The wiki uses this icon to show that there is some relavant information that requires mouseover.

At this point the information is not particularly crucial, nor do i know if there are any crucial information elsewhere hidden behind this function.
However, my issue with it is that it is not touch friendly =[
I can't mouseover and tapping it leads to the above page.
I play on my pc and have my ipad to look up the wiki.
The only other example i can think of is XKCD, and their alternative descriptions behind every comic.
That works because on mobile, touch-and-holding on the image brings up the image name or image description.
However i dont see that option working here as every image is the same.
So if it would be helpful to a minority if there was a touchscreen friendly design before the wiki uses this function to a greater degree.
Thanks for this feedback, we will look into that - we're sort of limited with what we can do due to the WikiMedia version OOO is currently using. I'll ask around to see if this can work. But the mouseover information for those "notice" icons needs to stay in the tooltip. If you like, I can list what each one says on the page that the icon links to? Until we figure out how to make it more touch friendly. It's pretty much read-once information type stuff.
In the meantime, would you like us to pop the descriptions out of the tooltip and into the table itself (for the furniture lists)? I've designed it so we can do this with ease, allowing us to try different formats, so don't worry about it being "work" for us :)
In case you're curious, the reason I tried out the furniture list (not the main list, but on the furniture group pages) is because the descriptions for almost every item's recolor is a clone with the same or nearly the same wording, and for the winterfest tree/obsidian obelisks, the text was very long and stretched the table quite a bit. But we can put the extra long text bits into a show/hide, and leave the rest simply visible if that's preferable.
