The icon set has some useful icons, but not everything I would want. However if nothing else were available then this could be used.
The attribution requirements by the license and the creator are relatively easy to satisfy. The creator requires a note of usage (credit) and a link to his distribution page. If I were to do this I think I should create a number of configuration items - one for each item used and then the wiki admin could change them if they want to.
