Option to Disable Article Icons

What functionality is missing? What is unsatisfying with the current situation?

I do not care for the Icon feature on my articles I find it distracting from my theme, and while I can remove them on my own I would much prefer a global option to disable them  

How does this feature request address the current situation?

Simplifies article creation  

What are other uses for this feature request?

The Team's Response

Thanks for the suggestion! The icons coming back after being removed is a known issue that's already planned to be fixed. We'll look into implementing a world-level toggle to disable icons.

    I really don't see what they add, and I hate that some of my articles have them and some don't, based on when they were created

    I find them strange and un-immersive. I would like to be able to toggle them off.

    Even when deleted, they come back when I edit an article again, so it has to be manually done every time. Not sure if this is a bug or a feature, but I'd really like the option to do away with the whole thing.

    While I like the icons for some worlds, for others they become...obstructive, to the world's theme. Having a global toggle option per world would save a lot of fuss and is the best of both.

    It used to be very easy to not use icons, but the new editor automatically applies them. There should be a way to turn them off other than custom CSS or manually per article.
