 Completed. P.I. Ellsworth , ed. – welcome! – 03:52, 5 May 2026 (UTC)

I'm slightly curious why all these aliases are actually needed. Who is really going to type something like {{designation/text|nacionalni spomenik bosne i hercegovine}}? — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 21:47, 5 May 2026 (UTC)

I'm a bit concerned about the colour combination. As you can see light blue text on a darker blue background is not easy to see and represents an accessibility barrier — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 21:57, 5 May 2026 (UTC)

I tried to fix that immediately after creation, but I didn't know how. It should be a lighter blue, I guess, something like Quebec (rpcq). ౪ Santa ౪^99° 22:43, 5 May 2026 (UTC)

To be more concrete, #A8BDEC would be more appropriate to replace this dark blue. ౪ Santa ౪^99° 22:57, 5 May 2026 (UTC)

Slightly better I guess. Comparison below — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 07:47, 6 May 2026 (UTC)

I actually think it's pretty good. This combo is also in use in several other templates as a color scheme for the table entry - it does not affect template itself anyway, right. ౪ Santa ౪^99° 13:25, 6 May 2026 (UTC)

I've updated the template to use A8BDEC but I still think blue on blue is not ideal — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 11:44, 7 May 2026 (UTC)

Current	KONS of Bosnia and Herzegovina
#A8BDEC	KONS of Bosnia and Herzegovina

Edit request 23 June 2026

Description of suggested change: I would like to request the colors for the New Hampshire State Register of Historic Places designation be changed from blue to green with white text. This scheme is not used by any other page, and it mirrors the design of the New Hampshire State Historic Markers!

New background color: #005C31 New text color: #FFFFFF

(For reference)

Sorry, I'm pretty terrible with templates and coding and such, so I don't know how to show it without just inserting an image! BakedintheHole (talk) 19:44, 23 June 2026 (UTC)

 Not done: according to the page's protection level, you should be able to edit the page yourself. If you seem to be unable to, please reopen the request with further details. Day Creature (talk) 06:22, 24 June 2026 (UTC)

Not so — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 12:20, 24 June 2026 (UTC)

 Not done: There is no option for white text. The text color is set by :css('color', 'var(--color-base)') and does not appear to be modifiable. – Jonesey95 (talk) 13:11, 24 June 2026 (UTC)

Add the abbreviation "CLHL" for the Cincinnati Local Historic Landmark designation. DontCallMeLateForDinner (talk) 22:10, 25 August 2026 (UTC)

It also looks like many other designations are missing abbreviations. Those could also include "CRHP" for the Columbus Register of Historic Properties, "DL" for Denver Landmark, and "TSHS" for Texas State Historic Site. Thanks!

DontCallMeLateForDinner (talk) 22:13, 25 August 2026 (UTC)

 Done Cincinnati. If you have others to add, please update Module:Designation/list/sandbox and then reactivate when ready — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 12:01, 12 September 2026 (UTC)

Cultural Heritage under Permanent Protection (Kosovo)

Description of suggested change:

Hello there! I would like to request the addition of Kosovo's national cultural heritage designation to Module:Designation/list.

Kosovo has a statutory system for the protection and preservation of cultural heritage. Under Kosovo's Law on Cultural Heritage, cultural heritage assets can be placed under permanent protection and are included in the official list of List of Cultural Heritage under Permanent Protection (Lista e trashëgimisë kulturore për mbrojtje të përhershme). CURRENT LIST: LISTA E TRASHEGIMISE KULTURORE PER MBROJTJE TE PERHERESHME There are over 93 monuments registered in the list.

At present, Kosovo does not appear to have an entry in Module:Designation/list, which means Kosovo heritage sites cannot use a dedicated designation through the Designation template. I believe adding the designation would allow these sites to be represented consistently with other national cultural heritage systems already supported by the template.

I propose the following entry:

{ 
     abbr = "KCH", 
     text = "Cultural Heritage under Permanent Protection (Kosovo)", 
     col = "244AA5", 
     col2 = "244AA5", 
     scope = "Kosovo" 
}

I would appreciate it if editors could review the proposed entry and add it to the module if it meets the template's requirements. Hrvatskaeditor (talk) 20:10, 24 September 2026 (UTC)

Added - is the trigger CHPP correct, or do you prefer KCH? — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 07:47, 27 September 2026 (UTC)

Thank you very much! CHPP is alright. Hrvatskaeditor (talk) 10:26, 27 September 2026 (UTC)

Also you may need to change the col if you want text to be readable. See Template:Designation/doc#chpp for example — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 08:09, 27 September 2026 (UTC)

Is #a0b8e3 okay? It's a lighter version of the col2. Hrvatskaeditor (talk) 10:25, 27 September 2026 (UTC)
