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 David Levy's comment: When the English Wikipedia briefly adopted the French diff style in 2008 (before it was determined that the change lacked consensus), I [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=MediaWiki:Common.css&diff=209684639 adjusted it] to incorporate the familiar color scheme (amber on the left and green on the right). [http://i.imgur.com/cDgHg.png Here's a screen capture.]<br />I've used that code in my personal CSS ever since. Does it present any accessibility issues? If not, it seems like a better solution. _______________________________________________ MediaWiki-CodeReview mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-codereview
