/*
* HCF theme — legacy content patch
*
* Paste this into MediaWiki:Common.css.
*
* WHAT IT FIXES
* Pages whose background colour is hardcoded in wikitext or in a template —
* style="background:#fffbe6" and similar. The dark theme makes body text
* light, but it cannot change a background written into the page, so those
* boxes end up light text on a light fill.
*
* WHAT IT LEAVES ALONE
* Anything already using theme variables — style="background:var(--hcf-stone)".
* That content follows dark and light mode on its own and must not be
* overridden, or it ends up dark text on a dark fill: the same bug in reverse.
* The :not( [style*="var(--"] ) guard on every rule is what draws that line.
*
* THIS IS A STOPGAP
* The proper fix is class="notheme" on the templates producing those boxes —
* MediaWiki's official opt-out, which the skin honours. Better still, convert
* them to var() colours as the Main Page was. Once no page has a hardcoded
* background left, delete this file.
