About the use of Webfonts
It has been argued that Arial is a safe choice for the default typeface due to its availability. Using webfonts (+ Arial as fallback) could be a compatible solution that would offer more options in terms of typography.

From the technical side, I think there is already webfont support through a MediaWiki extension for displaying non-latin scripts. Pginer (talk) 12:23, 19 June 2012 (UTC)

Bold italic
Sometimes bold and italics are called for; for example, when convention asks us to bold a key term (as in the lead of an encyclopedia article), but that key term is the title of a work that should be italicized, or a Latin binomial taxon. LtPowers (talk) 13:41, 7 August 2012 (UTC)
