SVG animation (Community Wishlist/W151/en)

View all wishes.

Description

Automatically convert SVG animations to animated GIFs, just like static SVGs are now automatically converted to PNG images for viewing on Wikipedia pages. I even found a script somewhere that converts SVG animation into multiple images with a given speed, frequency, quality, and number of repetitions, then glues these images into one GIF file.
