Commit summary for MediaWiki.r105280: Diff colors now use the french Wikipedia scheme The french community has been using a specific set of colors for diff, it is believed to be easier to read for people perceiving colors differently. Source is from: http://fr.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?oldid=72567845&uselang=en This commit override r94429 / r94461. See also docs/uidesign/mediawiki.action.history.diff.html Catrope's comment: I can see Edokter's point that if green and red both look like orange, you might associate that with removal rather than addition, so in that regard it somewhat makes sense. But what doesn't make sense is for the majority to get the colors backwards just so it looks marginally more sensible to a small minority. _______________________________________________ MediaWiki-CodeReview mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-codereview
