message: scRGB should be added (an article about it, too). I think scRGB has even larger color gamut than the new Adobe space. I'm not a graphics professional, so somebody else could do that.

message: I was wondering is the y value for the CIE (1931) of 0,0089 correct or does it need to be 0,089. Carnelain (talk) 15:22, 19 January 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: A table on p. 139 of Wyszecki & Stiles "Color Science" (2nd ed, 1982) says the x,y,z of B are [0.16658, 0.00886, 0.82456].  The table looks correct.  But the label should perhaps be CIE 1931 (RGB) rather than just CIE (1931), and similarly the last label should be CIE 1931 (XYZ).Captain Puget (talk) 02:44, 15 December 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: I changed it to "CIE (1931) RGB".  If there's a more conventional term for it, feel free to change it.  Dicklyon (talk) 03:38, 15 December 2012 (UTC)

message: The 3-dimensional RGB color space is made easier to visualize by an animation where the space is rotated. It overcomes the difficulty that some readers have in perceiving depth in the present line drawings. I added the animation to the article and it was deleted by an editor using Twinkle. (However Twinkle is an anti-vandalism tool that should not be used to undo good-faith changes in content.) I shall revert the deletion unless a discussion here finds a consensus against including it.

replies: text: I always use Twinkle for reverts; it has separate rollback and vandalism buttons; did I do something wrong?  Anyway, the image impressed me as very busy/noisy/unhelpful.  Let's see if anyone else cares.  Dicklyon (talk) 01:31, 15 July 2011 (UTC)

message: Could someone please add eciRGB v2 to the table, and possibly create an article? A German one already exists. Thanks in advance. — Christoph Päper 16:56, 9 September 2013 (UTC)

replies: text: RGB color space →  – See also above: I read the Wikipedia style guide and the idea that Wikipedia should not use plurals in titles is misunderstood here. In a case like this, Wikipedia says that plurals SHOULD be used. REF: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Naming_conventions_(plurals) RGB color spaces refers to a GROUP of spaces that use the RGB color model, therefore "RGB color spaces" must be plural for disambiguation reasons. Singular RGB color space is incorrect  as the singular generic form should be referred to as "RGB color model" while actual RGB color spaces each have specific attributes that can not be summed up by a singular noun. This is a source of great confusion and really needs to be fixed correctly, thank you Myndex (talk) 19:48, 20 October 2021 (UTC)

message: Like in a couple of the other articles I have contributed to (Talk:Tesla Model S#Page Display), here also the current table at RGB color space#RGB color space specifications is so long that the table will flow over the right edge of your screen unless you have configured your device/Wikipedia to display it in tiny characters. It is technically difficult to display it. I am again pinging you here for helpful suggestions. Neel.arunabh (talk) 02:19, 31 October 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: Thanks, Dick. Neel, I'm not sure you're going to like this suggestion, but for some of the more complex or detailed tables on Wikipedia, the best solution may simply be to find a device with a larger screen. There are limits to what you can do to make large tables fit. I'm not familiar with how the iPad handles this. Doesn't it put a scroll bar at the bottom of the screen or let you see what went off the right side by using your fingers on the touch screen to drag the content that ran off back onto the screen (in which case the left side probably scrolls out of view)? Personally I don't try to do Wikipedia on my phone, I don't think it's really fit for that use. On the other hand there are apps on my phone (like camera) that I don't do on my desktop. wbm1058 (talk) 04:13, 31 October 2021 (UTC)

replies: text: I suggested that to him last week, and for some inexplicable reason he ran off to WP:VPR instead. – wbm1058 (talk) 04:50, 31 October 2021 (UTC)

text: The updated screenshot looks OK, too.  It gets the whole table in. Dicklyon (talk) 05:25, 31 October 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, that's the expected behavior. The wide table spills over into the normally-grey right margin area, but not so far as to run out of room and trigger the scroll-bar to appear, because the whole table fits (barely). – wbm1058 (talk) 05:57, 31 October 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: So what's the problem?  The lack of a scroll bar and the tight fit makes it look like maybe something got cut off, when it didn't? Dicklyon (talk) 06:08, 31 October 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: I can duplicate or simulate the behavior by reducing the size of the window (Chrome browser on Windows 7) until the scroll bar is forced to appear. There is only a grey area on the right margin when there is a scroll bar; the grey area is what you scroll into to see the right side of the table. I'm pretty sure that a screenshot of the bottom of the table window or screen would show us the scroll bar, which has to be there. The grey area only appears on the right side of the screen when you've scrolled into it, and you can make it go away by scrolling back to the left. – wbm1058 (talk) 14:22, 31 October 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: I can also see that with Chrome on Mac.  But what's wrong with it?  What do you think it should do differently?  Maybe just scroll the table instead of the whole page?  Like :Template:Wide image does for wide images maybe?  Still sounds like a good topic for WP:VPT. Dicklyon (talk) 16:11, 31 October 2021 (UTC)
