Filetype icons?
I was thinking that common extensions could perhaps have an icon that indicates it's contents. Unknown file extensions would instead display a page icon, like PCGamingWiki's {{file}} template; this would help distinguish from folders, as the same icon is currently used for both. Feel free to edit the table after my signature, which contains ideas.

exe, sh, bat | ??? (These are executables) |

bmp, tga, jpg, jpeg, png, psd, xcf | photograph |
pak, vpk, gcf | package |
zip, rar, 7z, bz2 | package with zipper |

span tag bug
See xwad; it's showing <span title="Path to common\SourceSDK\bin\<branchname>\bin\xwad.exe" style="display:inline-flex; align-items:center; line-height:1.35em"> in front of the path.

(using Template:Message) Same thing here on most pages, any characters with "<" or ">" can break the "span title" which displays the text when you hover the icon or text (used to explaining more details and for better accessibility), gonna try to fix it if possible.
Edit: nowiki would break template so looks like we cant for now. --Kr0tchet (talk) 14:15, 1 Jul 2023 (UTC)
(using Template:Message) We should port a variant of Template:Path, then. Greater than and less than signs are standard practice for wrapping these sorts of foobars.
Edit: Nowiki doesn't seem to break anything important. --SirYodaJedi (talk) 18:21, 1 Jul 2023 (UTC)
Split the Windows Registry as irrelevant here
(using Template:Message) I have nothing to add. --Lxm6 (talk) 16:18, 18 Jul 2023 (UTC)
