replies: text: OK. I have worked out how to do this and will implement it soon after spending a few days contemplating changes to the module since I last examined it, and thinking about the #Accumulation error report above. Johnuniq (talk) 04:04, 31 May 2023 (UTC)

message: You edited Module:Weather box/row on 3 April 2023 (diff) to add class="notheme" to each row of the table output. The edit summary was "Temporary fix to solve theming in Page Content Service". I don't want a full explanation but can you outline what that is about? Presumably the temporary fix is still needed? I'm planning to update the module soon and am trying to understand changes since I last examined the module. Johnuniq (talk) 04:49, 31 May 2023 (UTC)

message: While improving the article Climate of West Bengal, I added month wise extreme temperatures in the Indian state. The temperature boxes are colored according to their temperatures intensities. What command to use to color the rainfall boxes? Kolkatametro (talk) 00:20, 20 June 2023 (UTC)

message: Currently Percent possible sunshine links to sunshine duration, the very same link target like two entries above, without being mentioned there (just in a reference for Yuma). I therefore would suggest to remove this link.-- U. M. Owen (talk) 14:53, 28 October 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: It would be nice to have a link to a typical article showing the issue to save us the trouble of hunting for it. Johnuniq (talk) 01:01, 29 October 2023 (UTC)

replies: text: So the problem is that the bottom of that weather box has a row for Mean monthly sunshine hours and another for Percent possible sunshine and they both link to Sunshine duration. Is that a significant issue? A problem is that the first row is due to entries like "Jan sun = 163.8" while the second comes from "Jan percentsun = 53". The weather box would have to do something quite clever to notice if both rows were present then suppress the duplicate link in the second. If only one row is specified, the link would have to be included. Johnuniq (talk) 04:10, 30 October 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: IMHO removing the link should not evoke significant feelings ;) Let me do a grep check on the database dump to see whether percentsun is present without sun at all. Relative data without the obvious reference seems odd.--U. M. Owen (talk) 13:22, 30 October 2023 (UTC)

Can you look at User:CambridgeBayWeather/Auto width? All the weather boxes are using auto. To my mind the auto should reduce the width of the Igloolik weather box to fit to the left of the community infobox and not be forced down the page.
Further down the other weather boxes tend to be slightly different sizes. To me I would have thought that auto should make them all the same size. CambridgeBayWeather (solidly non-human), Uqaqtuq (talk), Huliva 19:39, 4 January 2024 (UTC)
replies: text: OK. This may be in part a browser issue. Chrome and Bing both show all the weather boxes the same size and it doesn't matter if I'm logged in or not. I used a second laptop and both show the width the same size but everything forces the Igloolik box down the page.

text: These look like typical weatherboxes on Wikipedia to me, some are a few pixels wider than the other (~1%?), none occupy the full screen. The exception is Kuglugtuk, maybe because of the long text in the footer? Igloolik is only forced down by the infobox if I use the narrow text width on the new skin or make the browser window much smaller. In a maximized window on FHD screen it's just below the text.

replies: text: Maybe, but do sources commonly discuss these measures? Are reliable figures available for a lot of places? I'm not sure more complexity would be welcomed. Johnuniq (talk) 07:18, 28 March 2024 (UTC)

message: The new dark mode contrast checker has highlighted three cells in the weather box at Buenos Aires#Climate as not passing the WCAG AA color contrast test. The three cells are:
38.0(100.4) 
38.9(102.0) 
40.5(104.9) 
These cells are all in the temperature row. Here's a link showing the WCAG test for the "38.0" cell. FWIW, switching the foreground text to black passes the test. Something may need adjustment. – Jonesey95 (talk) 20:23, 23 April 2024 (UTC)
