• This needs a link color for mediawiki.org (mw). Nicole Sharp (talk) 05:02, 25 March 2023 (UTC)
  • Unnecessary for the local wiki here at mediawiki.org, but needed for other wikis using this gadget. Nicole Sharp (talk) 21:27, 25 March 2023 (UTC)

systematic link colors

Here is a proposal for systematic link colors (versus arbitrary link colors):

• wikipedia: #000080
• wiktionary: #0000ff
• wikiquote: #008000
• wikibooks: #008080
• wikisource: #0080ff
• wikinews: #00ff00
• wikiversity: #00ff80
• wikispecies: #00ffff
• mw: #800000
• wikidata: #800080
• commons: #8000ff
• wikivoyage: #808000
• meta: #808080
• incubator: #8080ff

Each color is spaced evenly apart by one unit of 80₁₆, with the official sort order for Wikimedia projects determined at Wikimedia.org. This also leaves a few extra colors available for future Wikimedia projects or custom interwikilinks. Nicole Sharp (talk) 20:28, 26 March 2023 (UTC)
