Color scheme of thes maps

[edit]

Hello @Augusta 89: , @Ssolbergj: , and other contributors,

These maps (e.g., this one) are very informative but I find the color combination not optimal. Around 8 % of the (European) population have a Red–green color "blindness". i.e. they hav e difficulties to clearly distinguish certain red and green variants.

It would in my view be much better to have these maps not in red and green but, e.g., in blue and red (blue for Europa).

Hello @Furfur: . Sorry, I don't speak English (or very bad)... I respond in French : J'ai utilisé les couleurs orange et verte, car ce sont les couleurs recommandées (par convention) par l'atelier cartographique de la wikipedia française pour les cartes bilatérales. Par ailleurs, il me semble qu'il existe de nombreuses catégories sur des cartes bilatérales qui emploient ces deux couleurs. Cordialement. Augusta 89 (talk) 10:25, 15 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Hello, @Augusta 89: , je comprends, mais répond en anglais aussi ... I find the colors a little bit unfortunate for people with color vision deficiency (Deutéranomalie). Cordialement. --Furfur (talk) 11:29, 15 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
