Template-protected edit request on 25 June 2026

The current template is very hard to read on dark mode.
Change "<div style="float: {{{align|right}}}; text-align: center; width: 150px; border: 2px solid {{#switch:{{{level|}}}|1=gainsboro|2=red|3=yellow|4=green|5=cyan|black}}; background-color:#fFf4f7; padding: 5px; font-size: 100%; {{{extra-css|}}}">" to: "<div style="float: {{{align|right}}}; text-align: center; width: 150px; border: 2px solid {{#switch:{{{level|}}}|1=gainsboro|2=red|3=yellow|4=green|5=cyan|var(--border-color-emphasized, #202122)}}; background-color: var(--background-color-interactive-subtle, #f8f9fa); padding: 5px; font-size: 95%; color: var(--color-base, #202122); {{{extra-css|}}}">
This changes the previously hard to read background-color (and the border-color when it is black) to colors better supported on both light and dark mode. See the Sandbox for how it appears. Axolitl (talk | contribs) 20:07, 25 June 2026 (UTC)

Template:Edit request does not redirect here
[edit]Top of the page says, "Template:Edit request" redirects here
. Nope, for more than two years Template:Edit request has redirected to Template:Edit protected, not to Template:Edit COI. -- Pemilligan (talk) 16:39, 29 July 2026 (UTC)

I made it a little more newcomer friendly by adding instructions on how to reply to the edit request once it has been answered. Maayaaaaa (talk) 05:08, 9 September 2026 (UTC)
Partly done: There are a lot of reasons why an edit request might need to be re-opened, so I've dropped the first part of the statement, but otherwise this seems like a reasonable add. Primefac (talk) 12:03, 20 September 2026 (UTC)
