Description of suggested change: For Latvia's Development isn't using #FFDD00 since the end of 2023. However, based on their webpage it appears that they use #f2f2f2, #000000, and #003399. Since yellow isn't used anymore, it might be better to change it to blue #003399, or maybe light gray #f2f2f2.

[edit]For the Portuguese Socialist Party, I think a less vibrant pink would fit better the party, since it doesn't really use bright pink in its visual identity or propaganda, so to be closer to it's actual visuals, and to keep it diferent from other left wing parties that use red like PCP, I recomend this Brilliant Rose tone: #EE4B9D — Preceding unsigned comment added by Cyeme (talk • contribs) 21:56, 24 January 2026 (UTC)

Color of Liberal Democrats UK
[edit]Hi So I'm moving an earlier discussion to this talk page, concernign the color of the party Liberal Democrats UK. So sometime last year, the color of the Liberal Democrats was updated to match a new branding by the party. This resulted in the party now having 2 colors in the module. Both of these are being used at the moment, where pages concerning the parties before the branding, are colored another color. ["Liberal Democrats (UK)"] = {abbrev = "Lib Dem", color = "#FAA61A", shortname = "Liberal Democrats",},
["Liberal Democrats (UK, 2025)"] = {abbrev = "Lib Dem", color = "#FF6400", shortname = "Liberal Democrats",},
I believe this is bit too much, and confusing. Why have 2 colors for the party, instead of just one. This can cause some confusion, as to whether an orange LD is the same as a yellow LD, as they look different. Thomediter (talk) 10:46, 6 February 2026 (UTC)

Historical color for Lakas-NUCD (1991–2004)
[edit]I would like to open a discussion regarding color handling, specifically for historical party names and branding. I am not requesting an immediate change or addition of colors, but would like to seek consensus on how similar cases have been handled and whether a comparable approach may apply here.
As a point of comparison, in South Korea’s People Power Party, the party displays a red color when the current name is used in election infoboxes. However, its former name, United Future Party, is assigned a separate pink color in the module, even though it does not have a standalone article and only exists as a redirect. The infobox reflects the historical party name used at the time rather than retroactively applying the current party’s color.
In this context, I would like to discuss a similar scenario involving Lakas-NUCD, separate from Lakas-CMD (1991). Although Lakas-NUCD currently redirects to Lakas–CMD, its branding during the 1991–2004 period notably differed. Contemporary campaign materials from the 1992 Ramos campaign and the 1998 Jose “Joe” de Venecia campaign show consistent use of yellow, which was closely associated with People Power-era imagery.
The powder blue color currently used for Lakas-CMD (1991) appears to have been introduced later, during the 2004 campaign of President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo, following the party’s renaming to Lakas-CMD. Given this distinction, I would like to ask whether it would be appropriate to consider a separate module color entry for Lakas-NUCD, similar to how other historically distinct party names are handled.

- The Cabinet of Avdullah Hoti#Composition link works correctly now. Let me know if you still see a problem. Seems the way to fix this was to eliminate the "short name". Apparently templates look for a short name first, and then look for the abbreviation if the short name is missing. Hope this helps! P.I. Ellsworth , ed. – welcome! – 03:58, 15 February 2026 (UTC)
