Module:Storm categories/colors/doc explained

Usage

This template contains color overrides for . 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 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",
