# Talk:Doctor Who season 2 (1964–1965)

It seems that this article is using colours in the infobox which don't satisfy Wikipedia's accessibility guidelines. The contrast between the foreground colour and the background colour is low, which means that it may be difficult or impossible for people with visual impairments to read it.
To correct this problem, a group of editors have decided to remove support for invalid colours from Template:Infobox television season and other television season templates after 1 September 2015. If you would still like to use custom colours for the infobox and episode list in this article after that date, please ensure that the colours meet the WCAG AAA standard.
To test whether a colour combination is AAA-compliant you can use Snook's colour contrast tool. If your background colour is dark, then please test it against a foreground colour of "FFFFFF" (white). If it is light, please test it against a foreground colour of "000000" (black). The tool needs to say "YES" in the box for "WCAG 2 AAA Compliant" when you input the foreground and the background colour. You can generally make your colour compliant by adjusting the "Value (%)" fader in the middle box.
Please be sure to change the invalid colour in every place that it appears, including the infobox, the episode list, and the series overview table. If you have any questions about this, please ask on Template talk:Infobox television season. MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 05:30, 2 August 2015 (UTC)

I have made the following change to the hatnote, and wish to fully explain my reason for doing so beyond the space available for edit summaries.
OLD: "This article is about the 1964–65 season. For the 2006 series, see Doctor Who series 2. For the 2025 series marketed as "season 2", see Doctor Who series 15."
NEW: "This article is about the 1964–65 season. For the 2025 series marketed as "season 2", see Doctor Who series 15. For the 2006 series, see Doctor Who series 2."
My reason for this change is that I put myself in the mind of someone who knows nothing about Wikipedia, and searched the internet for "Doctor Who Season 2". I followed the link to this page and saw it wasn't the one I was looking for, but there was a note at the top of the page so I clicked the alternative link and- hang on, this isn't what I'm looking for either. And there's no further way forward from the note here. So I had to go back and finish reading the note.
Putting my Wikieditor hat back on again, I can see why the note reads as it does; it existed long before second RTD series to aid those who got lost between the original series and the 2005 reboot. But I think the order should be changed to be more natural. By this I mean, I think the structure should be:
"This is season 2; you have have been looking for the other season 2; alternatively, you could be looking for the similarly named series 2."
This keeps the similar "season 2"s together, rather than separating them, and would therefore I think be more useful to the people who need the hatnote.
I'll note also that I'm not keen on the clunky wording around the 2025 season 2, but as there is ongoing discussion around what to call the 2025 season, I decided to leave it alone for the time being. JustAnotherCompanion (talk) 10:11, 6 July 2024 (UTC)
