/*
* HCF theme — legacy content patch
*
* Paste this into MediaWiki:Common.css.
*
* WHAT IT FIXES
* Boxes, infoboxes and tables 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 that is written
* into the page, so those boxes end up light text on a light fill.
*
* This forces dark, readable text inside any element that carries its own
* inline background, and restores link colours that suit a light fill.
*
* THIS IS A STOPGAP
* The proper fix is to add class="notheme" to those templates — that is
* MediaWiki's official opt-out and the skin honours it correctly. Once every
* template has it, you can delete this file. Until then this keeps the wiki
* readable without editing a single page.
