Full gif support is on our list. Maybe we'll support svg too but that's harder because they can have embedded javascript that needs to be stripped/sanitized. Svg isn't supported in a lot of systems because of this.

Bummer. .AI files are for Adobe Illustrator. .SVG are much simpler and I'd figured pretty basic. They rarely load properly in Illustrator. I'm bummed they can get loaded with crap. I wonder how Wikimedia Commons handles it. To find the answer to that, maybe watch this space for a week or so... https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Village_pump#SVG_and_embedded_javascript_stripping

Got a hit. Don't know if this helps.

You might find a lot more good examples in the the open source Wikimedia family, and if you seek decentralized ideas Everipedia is also open source.
