== How get "alt" text for the image ==▼
In article [[Atlanta Compromise]], it is using an InfoBox [[Template:Nadir of American race relations]] .. that infobox has an image in it. How can I add "alt" text for the image, to assist visually impaired users of the encyclopedia? I couldn't find instructions for alt text in this module page. [[User:Noleander|Noleander]] ([[User talk:Noleander|talk]]) 01:39, 10 May 2025 (UTC)▼
:{{replyto|Noleander}} [[Template:Nadir of American race relations]] has <syntaxhighlight lang=wikitext>{{Sidebar with collapsible lists
...
| image = [[File:Le Petit Journal 7 Oct 1906 (cropped).jpg|232px|class=notpageimage]]
...
}}</syntaxhighlight> and you would add the alt text inside that image specification using {{para|alt}}, see [[WP:EIS#Alt text and caption]]. --[[User:Redrose64|<span style="color:#a80000; background:#ffeeee; text-decoration:inherit">Red</span>rose64]] 🌹 ([[User talk:Redrose64|talk]]) 12:57, 10 May 2025 (UTC)

== Title always link-blue? ==
I noticed that when a wrapper of this template is called on the page the title parameter links to, the title renders as the link color despite not actually being a link. This doesn't align with the default behavior when a page links to itself (e.g.: [[{{FULLPAGENAME}}]]) or the behavior when a non-title link in a sidebar links to the page it's placed on. It's also ''possible'' that this violates the {{tq|Links should be clearly identifiable as links for readers}} clause of [[MOS:COLOR]] (it doesn't conform to the inverse, i.e. that non-links shouldn't appear as links).
My Lua knowledge is limited at best so I have no idea what/who (and, by extension, why) caused this. Any thoughts?

Just realized this—only happens on dark mode (probably should've checked that earlier, but oh well.) Also: using Chrome but also shows up in Safari on my phone (again only in dark mode).{{snd}}[[User:DaZyzzogetonsGotDaLastWord|Daℤyzzos]] ([[User_talk:DaZyzzogetonsGotDaLastWord|✉️]] • [[Special:Contributions/DaZyzzogetonsGotDaLastWord|📤]]) 23:28, 29 July 2025 (UTC)</ins>
:::This also occurs using Firefox, again dark mode only. The HTML that is served has <syntaxhighlight lang=html><table class="sidebar nomobile nowraplinks hlist">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td class="sidebar-pretitle">Part of a series on</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<th class="sidebar-title-with-pretitle">
<a class="mw-selflink selflink">Mathematics</a>
</th>
</tr>
...
</tbody>
</table></syntaxhighlight> In both dark and light mode, this comes with the following CSS: <syntaxhighlight lang=css>@media screen {
a.mw-selflink {
color: inherit;
font-weight: bold;
text-decoration: inherit;
}
}</syntaxhighlight> which is what makes the word "Mathematics" appear black and boldface. But in dark mode only, the following CSS (found in [[Module:Sidebar/styles.css]]) is used in addition: <syntaxhighlight lang=css>@media screen {
html.skin-theme-clientpref-night .mw-parser-output .sidebar:not(.notheme) .sidebar-title-with-pretitle a {
color: var(--color-progressive) !important;
}
}</syntaxhighlight> The last three simple selectors (<code>.sidebar:not(.notheme) .sidebar-title-with-pretitle a</code>) are what's causing the color to be overridden. The color value (<code>var(--color-progressive)</code>) is read from a variable that is set elsewhere. Why it's written that way, I don't know. --[[User:Redrose64|<span style="color:#a80000; background:#ffeeee; text-decoration:inherit">Red</span>rose64]] 🌹 ([[User talk:Redrose64|talk]]) 07:10, 30 July 2025 (UTC)
::::I did some [[WP:WikiBlame|WikiBlame]]-ing and discovered that the last bit of CSS in your comment (the <code>@media screen</code> one) was added in [[Special:Diff/1234103998|this edit]] to the style page by @[[User:Jdlrobson|Jdlrobson]] (pinging to find the reasons for the addition as the link in the edit summary is broken and a search for "Fall of Constantinople dark mode error" on talk pages turned up blank).{{snd}}[[User:DaZyzzogetonsGotDaLastWord|Daℤyzzos]] ([[User_talk:DaZyzzogetonsGotDaLastWord|✉️]] • [[Special:Contributions/DaZyzzogetonsGotDaLastWord|📤]]) 13:20, 30 July 2025 (UTC)

== ARIA ==
Hi, per WIA-ARIA, can the parent {{tag|table|o}} HTML element with classes <code>sidebar sidebar-collapse nomobile nowraplinks</code> please get an ARIA role. Like the Mbox templates (see [[Module:Message box]], I was thinking <code>role="none"</code> is most appropriate. Although, in this case since most sidebars are navigation boxes it may be helpful to able to pass a boolean parameter to change the ARIA role given to <code>role="navigation"</code>.
@[[User:Izno|Izno]] What do you think? Sorry, I'm browsing around with my screenreader and noticed the sidebar also uses HTML tables still... Are you also on-board with <code>role="none"</code> and a boolean argument to switch this to <code>role="navigation"</code>?
▲== How get "alt" text for the image ==
(P.S. future me or someone else kind enough I can proof it—will have to also explain clearly and succinctly in sidebar and sidebar with collapsible lists template docs how to use lists (that expose {{tag|ul|o}}, {{tag|li|o}}, etc.) and be ARIA-friendly i.e. grouping them so they're read out usefully, labelling (!!) so important as otherwise a long babelling electronic voice of hyperlinks is all the visually impaired has for reference etc. if this is even possible to achieve on WP...) <span style="color:#CD0000">[[User:Waddie96|waddie96]] ★ ([[User talk:Waddie96|talk]])</span> 02:47, 1 September 2025 (UTC)
