Possibly also identical to https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Vector-bullet-icon.svg (which should be updated if we change the default's color)

Keep an eye on changes that impacts this from T109915, once the change goes through, the bullet will be the same as black text color.
After our color palette M82 got overhauled and improved, the color used for normal text #222 seems appropriate for the list-bullet-items as well, actually making inlining the images obsolete.
#222 works in .wikitables as well and is therefore preferable over #54595d.
.wikitable has background of #f9f9f9 (in one less than a week: #f8f9fa) which has 7.71 contrast ratio with #00528c. If we consider the second level of wikitable (#f2f2f2 and in less than a week: #eaecf0) which has 7.25 contrast ratio according to http://webaim.org/resources/contrastchecker/. Am I wrong?
@Ladsgroup Agreed. On the th 6.87:1 fulfills our needs contrast-wise.
I'd still reframe this task to get rid of the blue shade, as blue should preferably be just reserved for interactive elements and probably get rid of the image in preference to a HTML only solution in supported browsers.
Resolved as stated in T120636#2848751.
