Hey Marcus. I hope you don't mind; I archived your talk page. You aren't very active anymore, and that's probably good for you--it's our loss. I hope you're doing well, and I had some fun going through your talk page archives, which brought back a lot of memories of trying to save some of those "international relations" articles. Anyway, I'm here on a moderately related matter, and if you look at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/ChildofMidnight, you'll see why. All the best, Drmies (talk) 02:09, 22 May 2014 (UTC)Reply

WikiProject Weather: Map Dot & Template/Infobox Colors

edit

Dear project member, This message is being sent out to encourage new ideas and feedback on those proposed in regard to the colors debate for WikiProject Weather. For those who are unaware of what's been happening over the last year, I will give a brief summary. We have been discussing proposed changes to the colors of the dots on tropical cyclone maps and templates and infoboxes across the entire weather project in order to solve issues related to the limited contrast between colors for both normal vision as well as the various types of color blindness (MOS:ACCESS). We had partially implemented a proposal earlier this year, however, it was objected to by a number of people and additional issues were presented that made it evident this wasn't the optimal solution. We tried to come up with other solutions to address the issues related to color contrast, however, none of them gained traction and no consensus was generated.

We need your help and I encourage you to propose your own scale and give feedback on those already listed. Keep in mind that we are NOT making a decision on any individual proposal at this time. We are simply allowing people to make proposals and cultivate them given feedback from other project members. Please visit our project page for additional details. The proposal phase will close no later than December 31st at 23:59 UTC. NoahTalk 04:16, 21 November 2022 (UTC)Reply
