Module:Storm categories/colors
 | This module is rated as ready for general use. It has reached a mature form and is thought to be relatively bug-free and ready for use wherever appropriate. It is ready to mention on help pages and other Wikipedia resources as an option for new users to learn. To reduce server load and bad output, it should be improved by sandbox testing rather than repeated trial-and-error editing. |
 | This Lua module is used on approximately 5,500 pages and changes may be widely noticed. Test changes in the module's /sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own module sandbox. Consider discussing changes on the talk page before implementing them. |
Usage
This template contains color overrides for Module:Storm categories. These color overrides can either add an extra color to the template without adding a category, or override the color of an existing category or category alias for backwards compatibility. Make sure that added colors are compatible with black at a bare minimum, or else Module:Storm categories/demo will display errors as a check. As much as possible, also make the colors comply with at least the WCAG's AA-level for contrast with links and visited links. Additional warnings are shown by the demo template for these.
Overrides are defined in the following format:
-- For overrides that include the color of an existing category.
["override_id"] = cats["actual_category"].color,
-- For overrides that introduce a new color.
["override_id"] = "ff80ff",
