I've suggested linking to the license text on the Creative Commons site, as done in the site footer. As an alternative, Project:Copyrights links to w:Wikipedia:Text of the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 International License. Happy to make these changes myself if it's easier to (temporarily?) lower the protection on this page. Thanks! APaskulin (WMF) (talk) 23:15, 22 August 2023 (UTC)Reply

Dark mode compatibility

edit

Please see this report - The banner below "MEDIAWIKI.org MAKES NO GUARANTEE OF VALIDITY" [...] uses inline styles, resulting in it displaying in light mode but links are illegible because they use the same link color as the rest of the page.
