Derk-Jan (DJ) is a prolific contributor to our

veritable Tzadik Nistar[0] who goes around quietly fixing and improving
things. You may have met him at the architecture summit. He is currently
working on improvements to the CodeEditor extension, which provides an
alternative text editor for editing source code (like Lua modules, for
example), and has requested some help in creating icons for the toolbar.
See his post to wikitech-l for details:

I'm writing to endorse his request and to encourage designers with a cycle
or two to spare to help out! :)
To help Ori sell this a little more... CodeEditor is used to edit
incredibly important stuff: Common CSS and JS for our wikis, Lua scripts,
JSON for EventLogging schemas, and more.
This is a power user/technical feature when used directly, but improved
CodeEditor usability means that we can help prevent bad code/enable good
new code that impacts all users on our sites.
