Web browser: --- Bug #: 29065 Summary: Make "Release status" colours for MediaWiki extension info box disctint Product: MediaWiki Version: 1.19-svn Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: Unprioritized Component: General/Unknown AssignedTo: wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org ReportedBy: m...@tgries.de Classification: Unclassified Please can someone revert this change (*) https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/mediawiki/w/index.php?title=MediaWiki%3ACommon.css&action=historysubmit&diff=404688&oldid=404671 I suggested this change (done by Catrope) [A] https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/mediawiki/w/index.php?title=MediaWiki:Common.css&oldid=404641 which - in my view - got a good result. The colour selection of [B] https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/mediawiki/w/index.php?title=MediaWiki:Common.css&oldid=404688 is convincing and appropriate, as it made colours for status - experimental and - beta very similar. The rationale for the suggested change was: 1. I made the text "Release status" becoming a link to the comment section, so that everyone quickly can get further information what the release status means. This resulted in the text becoming a blue link, which was difficult to read on the (at those time) blue release status colour. In dicsussion with Catrope I dvelolped a new scheme, similar to traffic light: * https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/mediawiki/wiki/MediaWiki:Common.css * http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension_status : - experimental (red) I choose for: orangered - beta (yellow) I choose for i) fuchsia, or ii) gold, or iii) yellow - stable (green) I choose for limegreen - unstable (default = grey) - unknown (default = grey) The choice of i) fuchsia was not convincing, this is why Catrope turned to ii) gold. I suggest you propose a new scheme, if gold is not convincing you as colour. The current brownish orange is not very distinct from orangered, but gold was. This is why I suggest to revert (*), or please propose a better scheme and please check the consequence in respect to the other release status colour. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
