Wiki information pages and other "metawiki" content pages should have a slighly different design, say, a lightgrey backgroud, to discourage people who accidentaly stumble upon one thinking it is a wiki article. This is just a suggestion, not a strongly held opinion or anything like that. Kemik0297 (talk) 18:07, 28 November 2024 (UTC)

::If you use the MonoBook skin, rather than the default Vector-2022, it already does this. The stylesheet for MonoBook includes these rules: div#content,

div#p-cactions li a:hover,

div#p-cactions li.selected a,

div#content div.thumb {

background-color: #F8FCFF;

}

.ns-0 div#content,

.ns-0 div#p-cactions li a:hover,

.ns-0 div#p-cactions li.selected a,

.ns-0 div#content div.thumb {

background-color: white;

} which essentially says "Set the background colour for all pages to #F8FCFF. If the page is in article space, override this and set the background colour to white." The colour #F8FCFF is {{colorbox|#F8FCFF}}, a very pale blue. Some other Wikipedias use other colours, such as French Wikipedia, which sets the background for talk pages (namespace 1) to #FFE, {{colorbox|#FFE}}, a light yellow. But this is really a matter for WP:VPR. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 21:50, 28 November 2024 (UTC)
