Hi there! I'm new to this, and I wanted to share my attempt at creating a favicon using the Wikipedia logo and a location icon. I've come up with two versions, but please keep in mind that these are rough ideas. I would greatly appreciate your feedback on how these turned out. Your input will help me improve. Thank you!

Hi, @srilakshmipotnuru thanks for working on this issue.

We want to use this icon as the icon that will appear in the browser, but also as the icon that will appear on the phone's home page.

It has be rectangular in shape, and have meaning also when it's very small (32X32)

Here's an article about fav icons and their usage: https://www.creativebloq.com/illustrator/create-perfect-favicon-12112760

The current icon, is the default vite icon that you can see at: https://github.com/noam-honig/wikiloc/blob/master/public/vite.svg

PNG format is great.
