If you're here to place a CT notice for any topic related to science, medicine, American politics, or anything that might remotely be considered a conspiracy theory, don't bother. I'm already aware. You may point to this notice if it ever comes up.

Talk:COVID-19 lab leak theory/Sources dark mode jank

@Shibbolethink: See what I get to look at [1] in night mode before my edit. I'm curious what you're seeing with my changes. Is the text color wrong? If that's the case then a including color: var(--color-base, #202122); in the style information could fix it. If its something else, it may require CSS styling to more properly account for dark mode. ― Synpath 02:44, 10 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

The background was dark grey and the text was black. — Shibbolethink ^(♔ ^♕) 02:47, 10 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, I used the wrong fallback hex code in that case. Can you take a look at the state of the page now? If it's still wonky let me know and I can try one more thing. Then if it's still off we'll leave it at status quo and I'll figure something else out or just never touch the page again. ― Synpath 03:08, 10 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

AH, looks much better!! Thank you. Glad we could find a solution, always happy to have more accessible pages :) — Shibbolethink ^(♔ ^♕) 03:12, 10 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I tell you it's way too easy to make mistakes with this styling. I'll have to figure out a better system and thanks for helping me out! ― Synpath 03:15, 10 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
