Usage
[edit]If an article, file, template, category, module, or other page does not meet the guideline for the use of colours, add this to the top of the page:
{{overcoloured|date=September 2026}}
Alternatively, if the problem only affects one section of the page, add this to the top of the relevant section:
{{overcoloured|section|date=September 2026}}
- If the page is written in United States English, ensure {{Use American English}} is placed at the top of it for this template to spell "colour" as "color" for WP:ENGVAR compliance.
- This template takes the optional parameter
|reason=, which can be used to explain what issues need to be addressed, e.g.|reason=The contrast of some of the colors used in this timeline is not high enough to be read easily by almost anyone.
Category
