![]() | This Lua module is used on 106,000+ pages. To avoid major disruption and server load, any changes should be tested in the module's /sandbox or /testcases subpages. The tested changes can be added to this page in a single edit. Consider discussing changes on the talk page before implementing them. Transclusion count updated automatically (see documentation). |
![]() | This module is rated as beta, and is ready for widespread use. It is still new and should be used with some caution to ensure the results are as expected. |
This is the data module used by Module:College color. Color contrast should meet Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.0's AAA level when feasible. Please test any changes in Module:College color/data/sandbox first.
Format
Most lines will be of the following form
["TEAM NAME"] = {"HEX1", "HEX2", name1="...", name2="...", cite="...", cite2="..."},
or
["TEAM NAME"] = {"HEX1", "HEX2", "HEX3", name1="...", name3="...", cite="...", cite2="..."},
The trailing comma is very important. Here, HEX1
, HEX2
, and HEX3
are hexadecimal color values. The name1
, name2
, and name3
are to display the names of the school colors in the infoboxes. The cite
and cite2
parameters are used to supply up to two full citations with a URL for verification of the colors for a school's entry. Unsourced entries that are challenged may be deleted.
To use the same color for more than one team name (e.g., if the team goes by more than one name, but the colors are the same), use
["SECONDARY TEAM NAME"] = "TEAM NAME",
where TEAM NAME
has already been defined, and SECONDARY TEAM NAME
is the alternative spelling, or name.
Warning
Be very careful when updating this module, as it is used in a large number of articles. Please test any changes in Module:College color/data/sandbox first.

Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter has terminated with signal "24".
As a guide to selecting foreground and background colors for text, the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.0 (guideline 1.4) classifies contrast ratios for ordinary text as follows:
Font size | Not Compliant | Level AA | Level AAA |
---|---|---|---|
Normal | < 4.5 | 4.5 to 7.0 | > 7.0 |
Large (18 pt or 14 pt bold) | < 3.0 | 3.0 to 4.5 | > 4.5 |
Normal wiki-text is rendered by common browsers at roughly 9.5 to 10.5 pt (12.5 to 14 px), depending on skin. Text would need to be about 180% or 140% bold to qualify as "Large" for WCAG purposes.
