Infinite loop

[edit]

@Ahecht: There is a glitch somewhere. For example, 2006 Chicago Rush season is showing timeout errors. A test in my sandbox with contents: 

{{#invoke:Gridiron color|color|column=4|altcolumn=1|raw=false|team=Chicago Rush|year=2006}}

gives script error "The time allocated for running scripts has expired".

The reason is:

  • The above calls Module:Gridiron color with team = "Chicago Rush".
  • Function get_colors sets colors to a table with
    colors[6] == {["Chicago Rush 2001thru2012"] = "Chicago Rush"}
  • It calls function get_year which executes return year_colors which returns "Chicago Rush".
  • Because that is a string, get_colors calls itself which gives an infinite loop.

I'm not sure what is wanted so am posting this. Johnuniq (talk) 03:59, 22 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Johnuniq: Thanks. That's an error in the /data module. The main module is designed to recursively follow redirects, so it's doing the right thing, but the data should never have a year-specific color scheme redirect back to the main color scheme. I fixed that line, and I'll check for others like it. --Ahecht (TALK

"Brooklyn Dodgers" is another. Johnuniq (talk) 05:00, 22 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks Johnuniq. I've updated the module so it should detect those infinite loops. --Ahecht (TALK

Accessibility problems

[edit]

There was an issue brought up at Template talk:Gridiron primary color#Accessibility problems by Zzyzx11 that many of the color combination generated by this template fail WP:COLORS.

I've enabled the contrast check function in Module:Gridiron color/sandbox, which is used by {{Gridiron primary style/sandbox}} and {{Gridiron alt primary style/sandbox}}, to address the accessibility issues. You can test it at Template:Gridiron primary style/testcases and Template:Gridiron alt primary style/testcases. The module checks the contrast of the text color against the background color, and if it's less than a certain threshold, it first tries setting the text color to black, then to white, then it tries the alternative color scheme, and finally, if all else fails, it reverts to default colors.

I've set the contrast threshold to 4.5, which is the limit for all text under the WCAG 2.0 AA standard and the limit for large text under the WCAG 2.0 AAA standard. It's also the highest value for which either black or white text should always work, regardless of the background color (so it should never have to use the alternative or default color schemes). However, if there's consensus to change this to another value, I can do so.

Let me know if you have any feedback on this feature before I implement it in the main module. --Ahecht (TALK
PAGE) 16:21, 22 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

After almost a year with no objections, I've enabled this feature with a contrast requirement of 3, just to see if this garners any complaints. If not, I'll bump it up to 4.5 at some point in the future. --Ahecht (TALK
PAGE) 14:43, 16 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Ahecht: I came to this page to raise a concern about some color schemes having too low a contrast (specifically, the Providence Steam Roller style). I would strongly support enabling this feature at a 4.5 threshold. Then if anybody wants to propose a new color scheme for a given team with an appropriate level of contrast, they'd be welcome to do so (eg, in the case of Providence Steam Rollers, it would be pretty easy to change #F03A16 to #DC3514, which is the same hue but at a different value and hits 4.5 contrast with white and black.) - - mathmitch7 (talk/contribs) 13:20, 1 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Mathmitch7: I updated the sandbox version to 4.5. You can see the effect this has on the Providence Steam Rollers over at Template:Gridiron primary style/testcases. If you like, I can implement that change in the main template and see if anyone complains. --Ahecht (TALK

Borders

[edit]

Ahecht, I think we need some debugging for the borders. here are some test cases:

  • Good: {{#invoke:Gridiron color|style|New York Giants|border=2}} → background-color: #0B2265 !important; color: #FFFFFF !important; box-shadow: inset 2px 2px 0 #A71930, inset -2px -2px 0 #A71930;

  • Bad Good: {{#invoke:Gridiron color|style|New York Giants|border=0}} → background-color: #0B2265 !important; color: #FFFFFF !important;
  • Good: {{#invoke:Gridiron color|style|New York Giants|border=yes}} → background-color: #0B2265 !important; color: #FFFFFF !important; box-shadow: inset 2px 2px 0 #A71930, inset -2px -2px 0 #A71930;
  • Good: {{#invoke:Gridiron color|style|New York Giants|border=no}} → background-color: #0B2265 !important; color: #FFFFFF !important;
  • Good: {{#invoke:Gridiron color|style|New York Giants|border=}} → background-color: #0B2265 !important; color: #FFFFFF !important;
  • Good: {{#invoke:Gridiron color|style|New York Giants}} → background-color: #0B2265 !important; color: #FFFFFF !important;

In the other color modules, |border=0 means no border, but currently this adds a 2px border. Frietjes (talk) 19:21, 10 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

# New York Jets and Indianapolis Colts: copied primary color into secondary. THis does not show in the tests, probably because the test is not correct for this? (Change is not tested this way). Question?
Because of unexpected behaviour re Jacksonville Jaguars, I suggest to not make this edit.
Also, the second set of changes should be tested better (effectively). I leave the request active to invite other editors to check. -DePiep (talk) 16:04, 10 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Added San Diego Chargers note: not tested well. -DePiep (talk) 16:45, 10 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
New tests
  1. Jacksonville: (see code) variants with overlapping periods (years)
  2. San Diego: no changes visible between live colors and sandbox colors.
  3. New York Jets (all years): no changes visible between live colors and sandbox colors.
  4. Indianapolis Colts: no changes visible between live colors and sandbox colors.
For these reasons I conclude the edit should not be made. I invite editors to check this (more eyeballs). -DePiep (talk) 17:37, 10 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Apparently DaveTheBrave has fixed them. I strike my judgement, no objections (up to others). -DePiep (talk) 09:49, 13 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Fixed sandbox tests
  • DePiep: It appears the original request was not clear enough as 216.7.252.229 did not specify what to remove or alter while also adding the desired lines. I have updated the sandbox to what I believe was the intended result.
  1. Jacksonville: The line ["Jacksonville Jaguars 2009thru2012"] = {"#006576", "#FFFFFF", "#000000", "#000000", "#FFFFFF"} overlapped ["Jacksonville Jaguars 1995thru2012"] = {"#006576", "#FFFFFF", "#BB9334", "#000000", "#FFFFFF"}. I fixed this to ["Jacksonville Jaguars 1995thru2008"] = {"#006576", "#FFFFFF", "#BB9334", "#000000", "#FFFFFF"}.
  2. San Diego: The lines ["San Diego Chargers 1988thru2006"] = {"#002244", "#FFFFFF", "#FFB612", "#FFB612", "#000000"} and ["San Diego Chargers 1988thru2016"] = {"#002244", "#FFFFFF", "#FFB612", "#0073CF", "#FFFFFF"} both started at the year 1988 which caused another overlap error. The original request did not specify to remove the latter line of code.
  3. New York Jets and Indianapolis Colts: The secondary colors for both teams for all seasons have also been altered to fit the original request.
With these revised edits, I conclude that the edit should be made. DaveTheBrave ❯❯❯ Talk 03:33, 13 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Miami Dolphins font color

[edit]

When did this change from white to black? White text is both more readable on the template and a more natural choice given their color scheme.►Chris NelsonHolla! 02:27, 25 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Chrisjnelson: There was a discussion at Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_National_Football_League/Archive_17#Miami_Dolphins_table_colors_to_meet_WP:CONTRAST that did not result in a consensus for a different scheme, but basically white text on aqua background is hard for color-blind users to read and fails accessibility guidelines at WP:CONTRAST. I argued to move away from the black text on aqua background, but other users preferred to keep it in order to stay with the aqua background. Eagles 24/7 (C) 19:22, 11 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hello,

Requesting to add a line in light of the Edmonton Football Team dropping the "Eskimos" moniker.[1]


Current: Line 403

["Edmonton Eskimos"] = {"#2B5134", "#FFFFFF", "#FCB42B", "#FCB42B", "#000000"},

Proposed: Line 403 +1

["Edmonton Eskimos"] = "Edmonton Football Team",

["Edmonton Football Team"] = {"#2B5134", "#FFFFFF", "#FCB42B", "#FCB42B", "#000000"},


The team has stated that they are unlikely to choose a name in 2020, so while this is temporary, it will still last for a while.

Thanks, Cmm3 (talk) 20:38, 21 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

For both "Edmonton Football Team" and "Washington Football Team", I decided to flip it the other way:
["Washington Redskins"] = {"#5A1414", "#FFFFFF", "#FFB612", "#FFB612", "#5A1414",
...
["Washington Football Team"] = "Washington Redskins",
["Edmonton Eskimos"] = {"#2B5134", "#FFFFFF", "#FCB42B", "#FCB42B", "#000000"},
["Edmonton Football Team"] = "Edmonton Eskimos",
Since these "Football Team" names are only temporary, it will allow the lines for the previous names to remain unchanged, should new colours be announced with the new permanent names. Also because of the historical color lines for the Washington Team, setting ["Washington Football Team"] = "Washington Redskins" is a sure thing, and I'm not sure how the code would react the other way. Zzyzx11 (talk) 19:22, 23 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Zzyzx11: Just to follow up here, since Washington has decided to keep "Washington Football Team" name for a second season, I went ahead and updated the table so that "WFT" is primary. Redirects to historical names will work as expected. --Ahecht (TALK

  • ["Jacksonville Jaguars 2018thru2020"] = {"#000000", "#FFFFFF", "#006778", "#006778", "#FFFFFF"}
  • ["Jacksonville Jaguars 2013thru2017"] = {"#000000", "#FFFFFF", "#9F792C", "#006778", "#FFFFFF"}
  • ["Jacksonville Jaguars 2009thru2012"] = {"#006778", "#FFFFFF", "#000000", "#000000", "#FFFFFF"}
  • ["Jacksonville Jaguars 1995thru2008"] = {"#006778", "#FFFFFF", "#D7A22A", "#D7A22A", "#000000"}

Would you be okay with these proposed wiki-code formatting changes? If so, would you be willing to implement them for me? Charlesaaronthompson (talk) 05:01, 18 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

To editor Charlesaaronthompson: My apologies, I thought Jacksonville donned a different HTML shade of teal during 2013–17. My misconception probably comes from this uniform database where the teal from the designs looks more blue compared to the rest. Anyways, when I have time I will. GalaxyFighter55 (talk) 05:03, 18 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
To editor GalaxyFighter55: No worries! The only reason why I'm convinced that the Jaguars have always used the same shade of teal is because I have not been able to find an official source from NFL.com that says any different. Charlesaaronthompson (talk) 06:00, 18 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Ditch the pound sign (#)

[edit]
Incorrect procedure

To editors GalaxyFighter55 and Charlesaaronthompson: fyi, I've found that including the pound sign (#), also called the "number sign", with the color code inhibits the appearance of the colors on the test table.

So for the future, the following is incorrect: 

["Jacksonville Jaguars"] = {"#006778", "#FFFFFF", "#D7A22A", "#000000", "#FFFFFF"}

The following is correct: 

["Jacksonville Jaguars"] = {"006778", "FFFFFF", "D7A22A", "000000", "FFFFFF"}

@Paine Ellsworth: The change you made removed all colors from all NFL templates that use this module, so I've reverted your edits. There may be an issue with the test table coding. Eagles 24/7 (C) 18:15, 19 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
To editor Eagles 24/7: well thank you! and apologies. I have been trying to fix that table for several days. I noticed one entry for which one color, red, appeared. When I checked, that entry had no pound sign. It made me even more confident when I compared with another data module at Module:College color/data, and none of its hex codes has a pound sign, so that led me to remove all the pound signs from this data template. "Back to the old drawing board", guess I'll have to keep testing. P.I. Ellsworth  ed. put'r there 19:01, 19 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
To editor Eagles 24/7: you were correct. The issue was with the test table coding in a supporting module, Gridiron color/contrast, which generates the test table. It was adding the pound sign, so that hex code entries went to the test table with two pound signs, as in "##FFFFFF", instead of "#FFFFFF". Seems to be fixed now. P.I. Ellsworth  ed. put'r there 21:21, 19 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Paine Ellsworth and Eagles247: This is all useful information. This is also the first time I'm seeing this, as I just got home from work. I had not had time to see this until now, but I will take the time to thoroughly read through it so I understand it better. Charlesaaronthompson (talk) 02:49, 20 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Seems a little weird, but all we have to remember is that when adding/changing colors to this "gridiron color" data module, the pound signs (#) are needed with the hex codes, and when adding/changing colors to the "college color" data module, the pound signs should not be included.

Ottawa Redblacks team color wiki-code formatting at Module:Gridiron color/data

[edit]

Would any editor object if I were to change the wiki-code formatting for the Ottawa Redblacks' team colors over at Module:Gridiron color/data to  red ,  black , and  white  (in that order)? Yes, I'm aware that the Redblacks' primary jersey color is  black , but most sources I have found list  red  as the first color (which generally is the club's primary color). My sources for this claim are the 2017 CFL Guide & Record Book (the most recent official CFL Guide & Record Book available), the Redblacks' 2017 Media Guide, & this article from OttawaRedBlacks.com that explains that the club's colors are, in order, red, black, and white. I'm asking for comments from other editors. I promise not to change the color codes unless there is consensus to do so, or if any other editor has no objections to me doing so. Please feel free to comment. Charlesaaronthompson (talk) 05:24, 20 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

No objection here. And let me thank you for joining the template editors among us! You've shown yourself to be a responsible editor who makes good edits here. It's important to remember that there are some edits that require the input from several editors, and there are some that can be boldly made without explicit consensus. You'll get a feel for that, and you will make a few mistakes along the way. That's how this project gets improved! Hope your TE user right becomes permanent. Thanks again, and Cheers! P.I. Ellsworth  ed. put'r there 16:58, 20 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
And in case it helps, here is my official vote of confidence toward permanency of your TE user right. P.I. Ellsworth  ed. put'r there 17:26, 20 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Paine Ellsworth: OK, well if no one else has any objections, then I will go ahead and change it. I found a better source for the Redblacks' exact shade of red. It's  #AC1F2D , per http://api.cfl.ca//images//logos//ott.svg. Charlesaaronthompson (talk) 17:52, 21 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I object to making red the first colour. The logo, uniforms, and website all feature black as the dominant colour. Black has been the dominant colour since the 1960s. Red is listed first in media guides because the team's name is the "Redblacks." I don't know why we keep changing this or why this keeps coming up. Cmm3 (talk) 19:31, 21 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
OK, well this is the input I was looking for. By the way, I reverted back the HTML color codes for the Ottawa Redblacks over at Module:Gridiron color/data so that  black  is the predominant color, and that  red  is the alternate primary color. My edit diff is here. My source for the Redblacks' colors is OttawaRedblacks.com. That source states that the colors in order are, red, black, and white, but it also shows their primary jersey color being black. That's why I reverted it back. You're welcome. :) Charlesaaronthompson (talk) 20:16, 21 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for confirming, I see the changes now. Cmm3 (talk) 23:05, 22 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed historical Denver Broncos color code changes

[edit]

Would any other editor who possesses the template-editor right object if I were to change the historical HTML color codes for the Denver Broncos over at Module:Gridiron color/data? All I am proposing to change is the Broncos' colors so that orange is the primary color and blue is the secondary color for the period from 1962–1996. My proposed color code changes would look like this:

  • ["Denver Broncos 1968thru1996"] = {"#F36F21", "#000000", "#005596", "#005596", "#FFFFFF"}
  • ["Denver Broncos 1962thru1967"] = {"#F04F23", "#000000", "#283A8B", "#283A8B", "#FFFFFF"}

Would any other editor with WP:TPE object? If so, please feel free to comment. I'm looking to build WP:CONSENSUS on the Broncos' historical HTML color codes. Charlesaaronthompson (talk) 04:46, 16 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Do you have any objections to these proposed color code changes for the Denver Broncos over at Module:Gridiron color/data, Eagles247? I'm willing to hold off on unilaterally changing them until or unless I receive feedback/comments from other editors such as yourself and/or others. I'm sincerely trying to build consensus so I don't constantly change them, which I better understand now is the main reason why I lost my template-editor rights in the first place. Charlesaaronthompson (talk) 04:33, 20 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Charlesaaronthompson: Saw this earlier, but haven't had time to thoroughly review. Could you please remind me in about a week when the NFL free agency period has died down? Eagles 24/7 (C) 01:45, 21 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Eagles247: OK, it's been a week now. I'm reminding you about these proposed changes. Do you still object? If so, would you please care to explain your objections? Charlesaaronthompson (talk) 00:18, 29 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Charlesaaronthompson: Thank you for the follow-up. I do not object to the above changes, as they are compliant with WP:CONTRAST and appear to be uncontroversial. Feel free to implement them. Eagles 24/7 (C) 19:58, 29 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Follow-up: I may have been wrong about the time frame.

thanks - might be better calling it 'neutral' ? 90.243.94.223 (talk) 20:03, 12 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Pppery, 90.243.94.223: Isn't that what the default value is for (i.e. using {{NFLPrimaryStyle}} without any parameter?). --Ahecht (TALK

They aren't the same color. background-color: #DCDCDC !important; color: #000000 !important; vs. background-color: #DCDCDC !important; color: #000000 !important; . Apparently people wanted the gray enough to use this hack, so I complied. No opinion on the "neutral" rename, so if another template editor wants to do that then go ahead. * Pppery * it has begun... 21:03, 12 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
{{NFLPrimaryStyle}} is background: #DCDCDC; color: #000000; vs {{NFLAltPrimaryStyle|Oakland Raiders}} which is background: #A5ACAF; color: #000000; which are both fairly close shades of gray. #DCDCDC has been the default color for when no specific team's colors apply since 2007, so I don't see the need to create a second set of neutral colors. If there is consensus we can change the default to #A5ACAF, but I don't see a good reason since that is a non-neutral gray (slightly blue/green) that was specifically chosen to match the silver helmet in the Raiders logo. --Ahecht (TALK

thanks - when I tested that before I was getting errors - possibly an error on my part - probably resolved now so can remove 'tie' & 'neutral' thanks Ahecht 90.243.94.223 (talk) 22:28, 13 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Ahecht appears to have already done so. I don't see anything left for a template editor to do so I'm deactivating this request. And sorry for not looking closely enough before implementing this at first. * Pppery * it has begun... 05:34, 14 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Requesting update to line 568:

Gridiron alt primary style

[edit]

Unless it's already possible and I'm doing it wrong, could the borders on alt primary style be updated to represent the primary color? It would be an inverse of primary style. ~ Dissident93 (talk) 16:59, 14 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
