Infobox political party/seats
[edit]Thank you so much for refactoring Template:Infobox political party/seats. I had that on my to do list for the past year, and never found the time to do it. Your fix is exactly what I was planning, since it reduces the complexity, and makes the text portion readable by a screen reader. Thanks again! Plastikspork ―Œ(talk) 20:15, 3 October 2010 (UTC)
- I'm happy you liked it:) I made it for the Swedish wiki and since it worked well there, I decided to move it here too. AlphaZeta (talk) 17:56, 4 October 2010 (UTC)
Help with a new template
[edit]I am interested in making a generic bargraph template, which would be similar to what you have helped develop in Template:Infobox political party/seats. The idea is to have something where the core information (i.e., the label and value for the bar) would be visible by a screen reader, but the additional visual cue provided by the bar would be visible using graphical browsers. I have made a first attempt for a specific case (Template:Georgia, Largest cities, 2009 Census -- Bar_Graph), but after some discussion (Wikipedia talk:Manual of Style (accessibility)#Partial replacement for a bar graph) realized that this could be something which is more generally useful. If you have any suggestions, or would like to help out, please let me know (or comment on the thread at MOS). Thank you. Frietjes (talk) 21:29, 10 March 2011 (UTC)
