Description:
Please replace generic icons with Ж (for bold) and К (for italic). German K from http://svn.wikimedia.org/viewvc/mediawiki/trunk/extensions/UsabilityInitiative/images/wikiEditor/toolbar/button-sprite.png?view=log will do. Ж is available here: http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Toolbaricon_bold_%D0%96.png. Thank you in advance.

I can confirm that buttons Ж (жирный / bold) and К (курсивный / cursive) are available when editing wiki text on ru.wikipedia.org .
I do not see such custom letter icons when editing on uk.wikipedia.org.
Would the Ukraine follow what was done to Russian by using the same icons as Russian.

Add format-bold-Iab image for lang ru, Add format-bold-ru image to lang uk
I just checked - In source editor, both RU and UK show correct icons -- Ж (жирный / bold) and К (курсивный / cursive). On the other hand, in the Visual Editor, Russian shows proper icon, but Ukranian shows the default "A" icon in the formatting dropdown, even though the textual description is correct. Adding VE.
Right, so:
1: ce wants Iab for bold
2: ru was involved to assist them with advice, but doesn't want any actual changes.
3: this ticket has some old info about uk, probably from when WikiEditor did not have fallback languages yet, but there is no real problem with uk in the WikiEditor anymore.
4: Seems VE does not have language fallback for icons, causing uk to not have the right icons
Ok.
Could we update this task to add info for visualeditor. So uk uses the Russian icon in visualeditor.
Also could we cross out the bit about doing it for uk in wikieditor.
That's because the fallback file in visualeditor is not working. https://github.com/wikimedia/VisualEditor/blob/master/lib/jquery.i18n/src/jquery.i18n.fallbacks.js
I looked at the other lanages that are falling back on Russian but none are showing any Russian icons.
Adding @Jdforrester-WMF since he is the one that works on visual editor and may know how to fix the problem.

Lang uk use russian bold and italic icons
As far as I can tell all WikiEditor issues were dealt with. If similar changes need to be made to VisualEditor, please file a new ticket for VE, linking back to this one.
