Template talk:Chicago Bears NFL draft template list

Accessibility of the template

edit

This template is used only inside Navbox templates which reduce the font-size to 88%. The use of the smaller CSS style in this template directly violates MOS:FONTSIZE which states:

Avoid using smaller font sizes within elements that already use a smaller font size, such as infoboxes, navboxes, and reference sections. This means that <small>...</small> tags, and templates such as {{small}} and {{smaller}}, should not be applied to already-reduced text within those elements. In no case should the resulting font size of any text drop below 85% of the page's default font size (i.e. 11.9 px in Vector skin or 10.8 px in Monobook).

The template should not be using smaller style and I believe that it should be removed. I understand the desire to cram in 70+ years into a small space, so as to not take up too much room in an article, but the enclosing templates, such as Template:Bears1940DraftPicks, are collapsible, and having text at 9px makes it an unreadable blur for many older readers and those with visual impairments. --RexxS (talk) 16:50, 5 March 2019 (UTC)Reply
