Comment:
Give Vector a lighter external/interwiki color since monobook->vector changed the basic internal link color lighter making internal and interwiki links almost indistinguishable.

This bright is too unreadable imho. Please revert.

bug 3112 improved the difference between a normal, visited and active link a lot. I think those colors are good now.

The difference between a normal internal, interwiki or external link is still pretty narrow:

Externals were changed since it was the same color as interwikis. I changed these because vector's new link color is far closer to the interwiki color. Should I revert externals or both?

#Comment by Krinkle (talk | contribs)   23:45, 31 August 2011

Both. I see and agree completely that this is an issue, but this is simply unacceptable from a design perspective. Open a bug :)
