Commit summary for MediaWiki.r106884:
Followup r105280
For bug 33139 "Swapping colors in new diff color scheme"
* Modified diff colorscheme to yellow[orange]/blue[blue]
- These colors attempt to address the following issues with diffs:
- Colorblindness (Protanopia/Deuteranopia)
- Cultural meaning of color (e.g., "green is good, therefore this diff is
better")
* Bumped font size up overall (actually, just removed the smaller)
* Removed dotted line around difftext
David Levy's comment:
I, too, didn't mind the old colors and wouldn't mind better colors. The issue
is that the new colors introduced via this code differ from those for which
consensus was established (and while I wasn't citing the English Wikipedia
village pump discussion, it led to the same conclusion).
And even if the yellow/blue color scheme is preferable, this is a flawed
implementation (as discussed below).
Most individual wikis/users never customize such settings, so this is
non-trivial.
