Question

@Average Username: Hello, thanks for your suggestion. IMHO it is impossible to create another 1 or 2 themes due to limited resources and capacity, but i agree there is room for improvement for the current theme. Would you like to share more thoughts on the current theme and do you have any suggestions on how to improve or change it? SCP-2000 16:35, 27 July 2024 (UTC)

Oh, thanks i guess 180.74.216.135 17:23, 27 July 2024 (UTC)

It's rather dismissive of you to decide on behalf of the rest of the world that they don't have the time or resources to create and contribute a new Wikipedia theme. Way to make people motivated to try. Timwi (talk) 05:29, 28 July 2024 (UTC)

That is the experience, though. In fact, two additional themes (Cologne Blue, Modern) exist, but they are hidden from selection because, with exaggeration, there was as few users as there are potential maintainers in the world (phab:T223824, phab:T287616).

Efforts for improving the current theme fall under the Desktop Improvements initiative. --Matěj Suchánek (talk) 15:21, 28 July 2024 (UTC)

Hey @Average Username, I'm not sure what you mean by a theme. Are you asking for:

• more color modes, like dim, or
• more skins, like Monobook or Timeless?

Could you also elaborate on what problems you would like to have solved with the new theme? What are you bored with? What would you like to see instead or choose between? Thanks! SGrabarczuk (WMF) (talk) 17:46, 29 July 2024 (UTC)
