Template talk:colorbox

Why use?
Why would one use this over ? This one is right-aligned (rather than used inline like the other) and so on a page like pink there is so much distance between the definition and color (and the that this box is as tall as two definitions on my screen) that the connection is weak. --Bequw → ¢ • τ 00:50, 30 October 2009 (UTC)

This template (used in 19 entries) should be replaced by color panel (used in 737 entries). On the talk page, someone wrote in 2009: "there is so much distance between the definition and colorthat the connection is weak", a complaint which I endorse.

 * Delete as redundant. I prefer color panel's positioning of the colour below the definition with the name of the colour as a label. &mdash; excarnateSojourner (talk &middot; contrib) 02:35, 8 September 2023 (UTC)
