Color Blind Issues

People who are red/green colorblind are going to have trouble discerning the difference between Increase and Negative increase

Equally true, they will have trouble discerning the difference between Decrease and Positive decrease

Would it be reasonable to create a shape difference for Negative increase and Positive decrease?

Agreed, Antiaverage. Separately, the coloured arrows and their filenames sometimes confuse. We should add an informative note to the mouseover text, but we could also make it clearer by, say, adding smilies (maybe not appropriate for some things), or using slightly different colours that will look at least somewhat distinct,[1] or using drastically different colours that will look very distinct (I'd favour black for good and red for bad, because many English-speaking readers will have a chance of guessing from cultural context). It's been five years. I'm going to mention this in a busier forum. HLHJ (talk) 02:35, 29 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
HLHJ, see also User:sroc's response to Antiaverage on another talk page. I suggest merging these discussions to avoid a WP:DISCUSSFORK. —⁠andrybak (talk) 08:16, 10 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
