Inline styles?

Moved to Template talk:Afd top § Inline styles?

– 172.97.141.219 (talk) 07:54, 9 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Extended content

Right now it's

<div class="boilerplate afd vfd xfd-closed archived mw-archivedtalk" style="background-color: var(--background-color-progressive-subtle, #F3F9FF); color: var(--color-base, #000); margin: 2em 0 0 0; padding: 0 10px 0 10px; border: 1px solid var(--border-color-subtle, #AAAAAA);">

This seems to be some kind of dark mode thing? I don't really understand though -- shouldn't we be trying to use stylesheets for stuff and not inline styles? Moreover, we already have styles (e.g. afd, vfd, xfd-closed), I assume these are styled somewhere already -- why do we have inline styles in the afd-top template at all? It seems like a gigantic headache. jp×g 🗯️ 05:10, 13 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Pinging @Sohom Datta: who was the one who made this edit. jp×g 🗯️ 05:11, 13 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

My thought process here for adding inline styles was twofold:

I was unsure if adding templatestyles could cause the WP:PEIS limit to be breached on bigger pages
If the {{afd top}} template was substituted, it could cause issues due to the fact that the styles might not being carried over

To my knowledge afd vfd xfd-closed don't apply any specific styles and while the inline styles do take precedence over other user-generated styles, the behaviour of the inline CSS will be analogous to it's previous behaviour if the CSS variables defined for vector-2022 are absent.

Tfd top dark mode

@JPxG and Sohom Datta: Related to #Inline_styles? (Template talk:Afd top § Inline styles?), can we have a similar dark mode implementation for the actual template {{tfd top}}? 172.97.141.219 (talk) 08:01, 9 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Who replaced {{IPA-art}}?

I wish art had been kept. In whose contributions can I see the replacements? Nardog (talk) 12:46, 22 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Mine. I used {{IPA}} as the template says to do. Gonnym (talk) 12:55, 22 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, added specific ISO 639 codes as far as I could. You also forgot |label=—see Bertilo Wennergren, Chicxulub crater. Nardog (talk) 13:48, 22 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
