Zacchaeusbarbour:, @
Lincolning:. A recent edit summary chided, Don't touch, I'll change them back if you do it again. These types of idle threats are discourteous and lead to edit wars. It should be a natural awareness for any new editor that comes to an existing baseball article for the previous years championship team, that there will be existing veteran editors that have gleefully edited that teams articles for some time...perhaps years. To make broad stroke changes without even a hint of respect for preceding editors is inconsiderate at best.

I don't see what you are talking about, the colors looked fine as they were. Here is what it looked like before your changes
http://imgur.com/GscOlSl I have seen others make similar comments, perhaps it has something to do with how you are viewing the page?

In my browser, IE 11, your change set the background color to black for April and May, rendering it unreadable. If it works for some browsers but not others, it shouldn't be used. So I put it back the way it was. ←

The issue is that you're changing style="background:#fbb" to bgcolor=#fbb, for example. Don't do that. It sets the background color to black on my browser, and thus renders the numbers and letters (which are also black) invisible. ←

As I suspected from the style of the picture you posted, you're using Firefox. I can confirm that your change works in Firefox. But it doesn't work in IE. Maybe that bgcolor parameter is incompatible with IE. ←

I understand the issue completely, like I thought, it is your browser. You are incorrect, I am using Chrome. I didn't know anyone still used IE. Didn't know anyone used Firefox anymore either. Works fine on every other browser I have tried: Chrome, Edge, Firefox.

IE is alive and well. I upgraded to version 11 just a few months ago. My wife doesn't like IE. She uses Firefox. But IE is what I'm familiar with. I must ask this: Since the style="background:# works, then why change it to something else? Or does Chrome have a problem with it? ←

The Dodgers All-Star shortstop
Corey Seager was left off the NLCS roster as a result of a back injury suffered in game three of the division series against the Diamondbacks. ―
