/*
 * 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.
