Template talk:Canadian party colour

Edit request for Manitoba parties

There have been some changes to Manitoba's parties compared to the current templates. The Manitoba First Party, which uses purple, (#5E419B  ) was previously called the Manitoba Party, and is now defunct. The Manitoba Forward Party, which is represented with Forest Green (#22824F  ) has changed its name to the Manitoba Party, and a new party has emerged called the Keystone Party, which also uses purple. The party colour template for "Manitoba Party" still uses the Manitoba First colour, and there isn't one for Keystone. We could use a second party colour under the name "Manitoba" using the Manitoba Forward colour, and a new one for the Keystone Party. Refer to List of political parties in Manitoba to see.

Edit request to complete TfD nomination

Template:Canadian party colour has been listed at Templates for discussion (nomination), but it was protected, so it could not be tagged. Please add:

{{subst:tfm|help=off|1=Party color}}

to the top of the page to complete the nomination. Thank you. ValenciaThunderbolt (talk) 22:33, 2 February 2023 (UTC)

I have noincluded the TFM tag. It completley breaks all styling in canadian election infoboxes and shows the cell styling when displaying the TFM notice. Terasail^[✉️] 00:07, 3 February 2023 (UTC)

Seems odd that the invoked Noinclude module didn't take care of that without the need for external noinclude tags. P.I. Ellsworth , ed. ^put'r there 02:22, 3 February 2023 (UTC)

@Paine Ellsworth The noinclude module only applies to the |bigbox=yes parameter where the value "yes" is noincluded so that the template isn't big on transclusions, I just made it so that it is never transcluded. Terasail^[✉️] 20:25, 3 February 2023 (UTC)

Mybad, because had I sandboxed it and checked it, I would have added the |type=disabled parameter to the same end. Thank you for catching that, editor Terasail, and a belated Happy New Year to you and yours! P.I. Ellsworth , ed. ^put'r there 20:34, 3 February 2023 (UTC)

Saskatchewan United Party colour

The SUP appears to have updated their branding, having gone to a blue-ish colour (#055284) with some red accenting instead of the lime green they were using before. ViperSnake151  Talk  22:26, 1 March 2023 (UTC)

The Saskatchewan United Party is different than the Saskatchewan Party. The latter is not changing its colours. Bkissin (talk) 17:09, 2 March 2023 (UTC)

Thank you for that, editor Bkissin! Hopefully it's now  fixed. P.I. Ellsworth , ed. ^{put'er there} 22:46, 2 March 2023 (UTC)

But coud you please change the SUP colours, as ViperSnake151 proposed? Tundraski (talk) 21:05, 3 March 2023 (UTC)

Here is editor ViperSnake151's proposal: #055284 =  ,

and {{Canadian party colour|SK|SUP}} or {{Canadian party colour|SK|Saskatchewan United Party}} = #055284

so  already edited. P.I. Ellsworth , ed. ^{put'er there} 21:19, 3 March 2023 (UTC)

Edit request to add BC United

Today, the BC Liberal Party changed their name to BC United. It seems best to add United as a new entry in the template rather than repurpose the existing Liberal one, so as to allow the old name and colour to be used in historical contexts.

Their new branding uses both pink and teal, but I propose using the pink (#DB1C63 =   ) as it will better contrast with the BC Conservative Party, which has had increased relevance in recent months.

So, please add |United=DB1C63 to Template:Canadian party colour/colour and |United=[[British Columbia United|United]] to Template:Canadian party colour/name. Thanks! — Kawnhr (talk) 02:10, 13 April 2023 (UTC)

I respectfully disagree about using pink for BCU -- browsing their website, it seems they're predominantly using teal (#19BFD2=   ), with pink as more of an accent colour. I also think on most displays this teal is distinct enough from the BC Conservatives' blue (currently #9999FF=  ). MAINEiac4434 (talk) 03:56, 13 April 2023 (UTC)
