Articles may make use of zero, one, many, or all of these icons as necessary.

ssborssb64ssbmormeleessbborbrawlunofficialfaorfeatured
Setting one of these parameters to "y" (such as ssb=y) will show its icon, with pipes (|) between each parameter. Examples:
{{ArticleIcons|ssb=y}}{{ArticleIcons|ssbm=y|ssbb=y}}{{ArticleIcons|brawl=y|featured=y}}
The order of icons will always be the same, no matter what order they are written in.
Other features
- The icons link to an appropriate article or category when clicked on.
- Adding the unofficial lingo icon automatically places the article into Category:Unofficial lingo, while the featured article icon puts it in Category:Featured Articles.
Improvements
If you have ideas for other icons, post on Template talk:ArticleIcons.
