Hey,
This is not big enough to have its own announcement but since it'll go live this week and this hasn't made it to this week's Tech news, here's a quick heads up.
Icons of FlaggedRevs extension (Pending changes) [0] were introduced 12 years ago and hasn't been changed since. I started to improve it and make it aligned with WikimediaUI design style guide [1] on it a while ago and it finally got merged. This will go live this week with the train and you can see an example of the new icons in [2] and you can see pictures of before and after (plus more information) in [3]
Still so many things need to be done to improve it's design but for now, this is a starting point.
Best
