This is the data module used by [[Module:College color]].  [[WP:CONTRAST|Color contrast]] should meet [[Web Content Accessibility Guidelines]] (WCAG) 2.0's AAA level when feasible. Please test any changes in [[Module:College color/data/sandbox]] first.

== Format ==
Most lines will be of the following form
<pre>
 ["TEAM NAME"] = {"HEX1", "HEX2", name1="...", name2="...", cite="...", cite2="..."},
</pre>
or
<pre>
 ["TEAM NAME"] = {"HEX1", "HEX2", "HEX3",  name1="...", name3="...", cite="...", cite2="..."},
</pre>
The trailing comma is very important.  Here, <code>HEX1</code>, <code>HEX2</code>, and <code>HEX3</code> are hexadecimal color values. The <code>name1</code>, <code>name2</code>, and <code>name3</code> are to display the names of the school colors in the infoboxes. The <code>cite</code> and <code>cite2</code> parameters are used to supply up to two full citations with a URL for [[WP:V|verification]] of the colors for a school's entry. [[WP:UNSOURCED|Unsourced]] entries that are challenged may be deleted.

To use the same color for more than one team name (e.g., if the team goes by more than one name, but the colors are the same), use 
<pre>
 ["SECONDARY TEAM NAME"] = "TEAM NAME",
</pre>
where <code>TEAM NAME</code> has already been defined, and <code>SECONDARY TEAM NAME</code> is the alternative spelling, or name.

== Warning ==
Be very careful when updating this module, as it is used in a large number of articles. Please test any changes in [[Module:College color/data/sandbox]] first.

As a guide to selecting foreground and background colors for text, the [http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20/#visual-audio-contrast Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.0 (guideline 1.4)] classifies contrast ratios for ordinary text as follows:

{| class="wikitable"
|+ WCAG 2.0 text contrast ratios
|-
! scope="col" | Font size
! scope="col" | Not Compliant
! scope="col" | Level AA
! scope="col" | Level AAA
|-
| Normal
| < 4.5
| 4.5 to 7.0
| > 7.0
|-
| Large (18&nbsp;pt or 14&nbsp;pt bold)
| < 3.0
| 3.0 to 4.5
| > 4.5
|}
Normal wiki-text is rendered by common browsers at roughly 9.5 to 10.5&nbsp;pt (12.5 to 14&nbsp;px), depending on skin. Text would need to be about 180% or 140% bold to qualify as "Large" for [http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20/#larger-scaledef WCAG purposes].
