Colours[edit]

Current colour system:

Syntax	Current		Proposed
Syntax	Output	Colour	Output	Colour
`{{importancecol\|Top}}`	`#ff00ff`		`#ff00ff`
`{{importancecol\|High}}`	`#ff88ff`		`#ff88ff`
`{{importancecol\|Mid}}`	`#ffccff`		`#ffbbff`
`{{importancecol\|Low}}`	`#ffeeff`		`#ffddff`
`{{importancecol\|Bottom}}`	`#ffeeff`		`#ffeeff`
`{{importancecol\|No}}`	`#ffffff`		`#ffffff`
`{{importancecol\|NA}}`	`#f5f5f5`		`#f5f5f5`
`{{importancecol\|Core}}`	`#ff00ff`		`#ff00ff`

Confusing that low and bottom are exactly the same colour. Colours that are different required. SunCreator (talk) 11:36, 29 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

How does that look? Does Low now look the same or too similar to Mid? PC78 (talk) 12:54, 29 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

They look different which is great. Can you make this change or can we get an admin to change it? SunCreator (talk) 20:49, 29 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

It would need an admin. PC78 (talk) 23:34, 29 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

How do you get an admin? SunCreator (talk) 01:05, 30 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The Mid looks the same as the proposed Low on my monitor. — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 08:28, 30 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

How about now? PC78 (talk) 11:10, 30 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Looks fine I think now. — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 21:30, 1 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Color scheme doesn't meet accessibility requirements[edit]

Currently, the "Top" and "High" levels violate the accessibility requirements of WP:COLOR when standard blue link text is used in the foreground (they have contrast ratios of 2.7 and 4.2, respectively). I am proposing changing the template to the follow values, which meet the WCAG 2.0 AA requirements for normal-sized text and the AAA requirements for large text:

Output	Colour
`#ff97ff`	Top
`#ffacff`	High
`#ffc1ff`	Mid
`#ffd6ff`	Low
`#ffebff`	Bottom
`#ffffff`	No
`#f5f5f5`	NA
`#ff9bff`	Core
