Amir, I believe you've been a wikimedian for too long to really believe that. No change is to small to be disliked by one or more people! >> It seems to me that Wikimedians should be given >> plenty of notice that color changes like these are proposed, and should be >> given ample opportunity to comment on them before they are rolled out, but >> this is the first that I recall hearing of these changes. I would go so far >> as to say that there should be an RfC before making changes like this to >> community wikis. Totally agree. It's not a question of how small/large such a change is, it's a question of collaboration and mutual respect. Which was lacking, yet again :( Some communities will miss these changes completely just because they had already overridden the old values in Common.css, most likely for historical reasons. A heads-up would have allowed them to decide on whether to go with the upstream changes or stick with the current layout. I call again on the staff and volunteers that work on the frontend to be announce changes well ahead of time and as widely as possible.
