The colour used in Weatherboxes

From the previous post

  • Is there any recommendation about the usage of temperature colour= "pastel" and rain colour= "green"? Why are there several colour schemes in the first place? Isn't it better if the colours are consistent across articles? Calimo (talk) 09:18, 12 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The green precipitation/rain colour is useful to avoid blending of snowfall with record lows, wind chill values, # of precipitation, snowy, and rainy days and humidity values an example with blending of blue colours and green colouring is used to avoid blending. In addition, the green precipitation/rain colour is more useful in warm and places that are not really cold (such as humid subtropical, humid continental climate, semi-arid, and arid climates) as the blue colouring can leave a false impression of a place that is very wet, and cold, even though it is not cold from a thermal standpoint sample. No it is not better to make the colours consistent in every article due to the different climates that each city has, although it would be better for all the cities in one country to have the same colouring since the cities in that country may have a similar climate pattern. Pastel colouring is better to use in tropical areas since the temperature range is not large (as pastel goes only down to −30 °C (−22.0 °F)) before all the temperatures below that look the same and since using in places with cold winters and warm summers make it confusing to read. The green colour is not good for places that are really cold like Yellowknife and Iqaluit or subpolar oceanic climates like Ushuaia (so standard colouring is better). Ssbbplayer (talk) 20:28, 17 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Removal of Green Colours

User:Subtropical-man has objected to the addition of green colours used in the weatherboxes stating that it is not the standard on wikipedia. If he/she stated that it is not appropriate then please explain why before there is an outright war over whether to include green or use blue or that why the green colour was introduced in the first place. Ssbbplayer (talk) 13:06, 8 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Well, green is not standard because it isn't used much. You give good reasons to change that. However you need a consensus before you make this change. Until then it is not standard, and likely to be reverted.
IMO we could remove the blue altogether, it is not so bad for places like Iqaluit to be in green. What is important is to stay consistent.
Also I'm not really convinced by the pastels. If temperature doesn't change (as in tropical climates), then the color shouldn't change much either. Potentially we could use pastels of green for consistency.
Calimo (talk) 14:50, 9 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Temperature colours change in subtropical/tropical climates, Ssbbplayer is wrong. Please see: [1]; 28, 33, 37, 39, 45 or 47°C - the next higher temperatures = more darker red. Subtropical-man (talk) 23:06, 16 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Very strong oppose for pastels. Pastels colours is totally unacceptable, weatherbox looks like a colorful Christmas tree or colorful puzzle or coloring book. These colors are good for reflective vests, not for encyclopedia. Sore eyes while watching "pastels" weatherbox. Second: green has one advantage - it does not blend with very low temperatures but this green tint (from option of "|precipitation colour= green") is too bright and unnatural = I am against. Current standard colours is good, I do not see the need for changes. Subtropical-man (talk) 16:45, 16 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

How is the green colouring unnatural? Rain is colourless. Ssbbplayer (talk) 21:45, 16 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Green tint from option of "|precipitation colour= green" is too bright and unnatural. Rain is colourless? It does not matter. Green tint from option of "|precipitation colour= green" is good for reflective vests. Subtropical-man (talk) 16:45, 16 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I like using the green colour. It makes the precipitation and rainfall values stand out from the other values like record lows and snowfall. It is better, because I think that too much blue colouring makes it hard to read and gives a place that is relatively dry a false impression of a wet and cold climate. Look at these examples then.Ssbbplayer (talk) 21:41, 17 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
This is your personal opinion. Though you may think it is an eyesore, the only thing that is more of an eyesore is if a vandal messes up with the climate data and puts in a bunch of ridiculous values. Similarly, I think green colours is better. None of us is right or wrong and it does not mean I and you have the right to just randomly go to city articles and just change colours to fit our preferences. Please explain why these options were available in the first place?. Remember that this isn't the first time about the usage of green colours.Ssbbplayer (talk) 22:05, 16 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
This discussion should involve more users, not just three editors.Ssbbplayer (talk) 22:20, 16 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I am strongly opposed to pastels. I am not strongly opposed to using the green colour. You're right, it makes the precipitation and rainfall values stand out from the other values like record lows but this colour (specifically this tone of colour) has a major flaw: looks bad (as reflective vest). So, if blue colour has a disadvantage and advantage and also green colour has a disadvantage and advantage - there is no need to change. Also, if green option is to be effective, must create "green" option for avg. precipitation/rain days because it can not be that Precipitation/Rain mm (inches) is green and avg. precipitation/rain days is blue. Subtropical-man (talk) 22:01, 17 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
The green was put in because an editor thought it a good idea. That's what Wikipedia is about. I prefer the blue for precipitation but won't edit war to restore it. I will point out that having the precipitation and rain line in green and the snow in blue is very wrong. If the first two lines are green then the snow must be green as well. Snow is a form of precipitation and having it a separate colour seems to indicate that it has nothing to with the total precipitation in the template. See Rainfall, Snowfall, and Precipitation. CambridgeBayWeather (talk) 07:12, 18 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, I noticed the same thing. Precipitation/rain/snow and avg. precipitation/rain/snow days should be one colour. Subtropical-man (talk) 13:16, 18 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

New proposal

I also have a new proposal - change the colour of cold temperatures from blue to violet. Violet colour is more suitable for cold temperatures than blue and also solves the problem of mixing colours of low temperatures with precipitations. For example (this example is merely indicative, colors used from pastels option, I'd prefer a more gentle tones):

Generally, this idea is based only on change one colour, from blue to violet in cold temperatures. Changes will only from 0°C (32°F) to negative temperature, rest of colours remained to be the same. Subtropical-man (talk) 13:20, 18 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I supported it, also user Ssbbplayer initially supported it (voice paused[5]). What is the opinion of other users? Subtropical-man (talk) 17:20, 26 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
If I understand it correctly, we would have rain in blue, and temperature in purple (cold) / red (warm). I think that would be good. Water is intrinsically slightly blue, not green. I still disagree with the usage of pastels though. Equatorial places with constant or nearly constant temperature should have no change in color as well.
I guess the discussion should now move to the Village Pump to get a broader consensus? This change will affect lots of articles. Calimo (talk) 16:05, 28 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
there is no need a move discussion and get a broader consensus, discussion and consensus on this talk page is sufficient. Subtropical-man (talk) 17:35, 28 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I think that Calimo is correct. Given the number of pages using this more voices would be better. CambridgeBayWeather (talk) 17:56, 28 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Currently I'm not sure if the colour change is good or not. Looking at the above I see that -22 to -23 are the same colour and -25 and colder are all one colour. There needs to be a greater range of colours after -25. CambridgeBayWeather (talk) 18:34, 28 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Note, that the entire range of colors will be moved, +8 in currently pastel weatherbox = -1 in new version weatherbox. Your example concerns the current weatherbox with the pastels. Current weatherbox with the pastels uses the colour violet from +8 (see below), therefore to about -35 there are changes in colors. Temperature of -35 and below is extreme temperatures, only a small part of the articles of Wikipedia will be show such low temperatures (for example: Murmansk located in the extreme northwest part of Russia (Arctic Circle) has this temperatures only as Record low in winter, McMurdo Station in Antarctica has −31.8 as low °C in one month). Therefore it is not necessary to greater range of colours. Notwithstanding, I think, though that we can do it.

There are many varieties of violet, range of colour of violet is similarly large as range of colour of blue. Examples of shades:

Abbreviation of "Average" (Avg.)

Are we so short of space that it is necessary to abbreviate "Average" to "Avg."?

it looks strange to abbreviate "Average" when

  1. There is clearly enough space (lines above it are longer), and
  2. Other instances of "Average" are not abbreviated.

I can understand abbreviating month names, but "Average" seems unnecessary. Thanks, cmɢʟee୯ ͡° ̮د ͡° ੭ 18:45, 28 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Faster Weather_box templates

The current slow processing of Template:Weather_box, often 3-4 seconds with temperatures & rainfall, is one of the primary causes of slow edit-preview of some major city articles. Timing tests have revealed that a climate-table can be formatted within 1/3 second by streamlining the templates to use simpler methods to process the data. If numbers are just calculated with rounding by 1 (or 2 in totals), then amounts can be formatted over 10x faster. Also, when color-tone values are selected by a #switch of 25 branches, then colors can be assigned 9x times faster than using a 3-part hexadecimal encoding algorithm. Compare versions:

I am currently running tests, of alternative methods, to display the basic temperature and rainfall data, but run 11x faster than the original Template:Weather_box from February 2013. This is just a status note, for general consideration, about some ways to make {weather_box} run 11x faster. -Wikid77 (talk) 18:34, 1 March, 22:04, 2 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I don't like these changes. You've got the same colour for 5°C and 7°C, but 8°C is different. The expressions ensured that every number was different, and it was all at a scale. This is the reason I put so much time into creating the expressions, and moving away from these huge stepped colour changes. 117Avenue (talk) 05:31, 6 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Default ordering

Since much of the world uses Metric as opposed to Imperial units, shouldn't the former be displayed by fault and the parameter metric_first be changed to imperial_first? Ditto for the separate-line display of conversions. GotR Talk 21:28, 4 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, you're right. In the Weather box, imperial units (not compatible with International System of Units) and Fahrenheit temperature scale are as default. The system of International System of Units has been nearly globally adopted. Only Burma, Liberia and the United States have not adopted SI units. And also Fahrenheit temperature scale, only United States (again), Cayman Islands, Palau, Bahamas and Belize have not adopted Celsius units. About 6.6 billion of the 7.0 billion (94%) of World population uses the metric and Celsius system (compatible with International System of Units), so, there is an error in the template. This should be improved. Subtropical-man (talk) 21:47, 4 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
And neither I nor other users will mind making the changes. It only takes an AWB run to do this, just as occurred with the last major overhaul in August 2010 that removed all the underscores (_). However, I won't have time to undertake this task until UTC 01:00 Wednesday. GotR Talk 22:12, 4 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I just took a quick glance at some articles to do with Liberia, Burma, Cayman Islands, Palau, The Bahamas and Belize. From what I could see all of them are using C and mm. This would mean that only the US is using F and in. So it would seem to me the easiest thing to do would be to have a bot run through all the US articles using the template and add a line "|imperial first = Y" then fix the template and finally remove "|metric first = " from all the other articles. Doing it that way ensures that nothing is broken, even for a short time. See below:

Lua migration

I have just migrated this template to use Lua via Module:WeatherBox and Module:WeatherBoxColors, the template is now less than 1/3 the size and generates a full box in about 0.6 seconds compared with 7.9 seconds for the old version. There are slight differences in formatting, which you can see at Template:Weather box/testcases. Long live the new Weather Box, death to slow templates. Dragons flight (talk) 20:44, 9 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Precipitation colours

Currently the precipitation/rain/snow lines can be set to green as opposed to the default blue. What I would like to see is that the green is extended to the three average days lines for consistency. At the same time rather than have to put in "|precipitation colour =", "|rain colour =" and "|snow colour =" it would only be necessary to put in "|precipitation colour=" and all the lines would be green. CambridgeBayWeather (talk) 18:05, 10 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

By "all the lines would be green", do you mean that the average snow accumulation line would be green as well? For locations with both heavy precipitation and snow (such as Yakutat, AK), the colours would blend far too much, and the idea of "green snow" seems absurd. GotR Talk 18:20, 10 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Precipitation/rain/snow lines should be blue, and needs to be improved colour of frost to violet colour, see: Template_talk:Weather_box#New_proposal. Subtropical-man (talk) 18:37, 10 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Of course the precip/rain/snow should be blue but we currently have the option to make them green. Snow is a type of Precipitation (meteorology) so if one type is set to green all should be green.

Like the record highs/lows for temperatures, should we include a record high/low for rainfall and snowfall?

Koopatrev (talk) 08:49, 18 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

unnecessary precision

Currently if I supply rainfall in millimetres, it converts to 3 decimal places of inches, which seems quite absurd. For instance 2293 mm comes out as 90.276 inches. Can the precision be reduced to 1D, either for all or as a parameter?

John of Cromer in Philippines (talk) mytime= Wed 20:42, wikitime= 12:42, 20 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

John, if you are specifying rain to the nearest 0.1 mm (as appears in this article you recently edited), then the corresponding uncertainty on the inch value is 0.004 inches and three decimal places is a reasonable way to represent that. In such a case, rounding inches to the nearest 0.1 inch would significantly misrepresent the implied precision. For the record, in your example 2293 mm would be shown as 90.28 inches, since in this case your implied rounding is to the nearest mm (equivalent to 0.04 inches). Dragons flight (talk) 15:51, 20 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
The thing is that the only country that uses inches for rain/snow/precipitation is the US and they measure to two decimal places. There has to be a cut off in the precision somewhere and given the US standard, two decimal places seems logical. CambridgeBayWeather (talk) 16:22, 20 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

"then the corresponding uncertainty on the inch value is 0.004 inches and three decimal places is a reasonable way to represent that."

I think 3 decimal places of an inch is both unreasonable and infeasible – I doubt it is possible to measure rainfall to a thousandth of an inch, and it just looks absurd. In fact I doubt it is possible to measure to 2D with normal equipment. We are trying to present useful information here, not an exercise in heuristics. The data in Tacloban was obtained from weatherbase. I guess they already converted integer inches to obtain mm in the first place. I have now rounded data to integer mm but it still appears as 2D inches. Incidentally trailing zero is not supplied so one figure appears as 99.9 not 99.90 as it should by your reckoning.
I also don't like the shading - why can't I specify a different colour other than the two you offer? My choice is lightgrey (or lightgray), or white.
I also note there is a line break in the first column in a strange place - so it appears as


high (
°F)
I'd be quite happy for no imperial (US) units to appear at all.
I also don't like the tgng on the dates and the word 'avg'. What's the point of it?

seems like simply ditching the template for a hard-coded table is a step backwards. Frietjes (talk) 15:11, 21 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
It's actually not that hard, modern rain gauges will concentrate water over a large collecting area into a narrow measuring vessel. If the cross-section of the measuring column is 1/100 of the collection area cross-section, then you'll get a column that amplifies the height of the collected water by 100-fold. Each 0.1 mm of rainfall can be represented by 10 mm of column height, which is then easy to measure. Personally, I think it is rather silly to be that precise since microscale effects will contribute significant noise on that scale, but it is not an intractable problem from the point of view of reading a gauge.
Back to the other point if one reports the rainfall as 20.2 mm, then presumably the person reading the range gauge intends to say that the measured value was in the range 20.15 to 20.25 mm. If you convert that to inches you get 0.7933 to 0.7972 inches, with a central average of 0.7952 inches. If you round that to one decimal place, you get 0.8 inches, which is outside the implied range. Similarly, rounding the central value to 2 decimal places is 0.80 in, which is against outside the implied precision range for a number like 20.2 mm. The only way to consistently represent numbers like 20.2 mm in inches without sometimes falling outside the range implied by 0.1 mm precision reporting is to use three decimal places, i.e. 0.795 inches. Personally, as a scientist, if one is going to convert numbers at all then I believe one should include enough digits to maintain a comparable level of implied precision, which in this case means adding two digits when converting mm to inches.
Also, I agree with Frietjes that substituting the chart with a fixed table is generally the wrong thing to do. Dragons flight (talk) 17:08, 21 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

To answer your questions;

  • "In fact I doubt it is possible to measure to 2D with normal equipment." That depends on what you mean by "normal equipment". To me that means the equipment normally used by the meteorological equipment used by the agency in charge of collecting the data. In the US that would be the NOAA National Weather Service. They would certainly have the rain gauges capable of measuring to .01 in. I found an old tube in our storage room that is in inches and it is marked in .01 graduations. Not sure how old the tube is but it must be from before 1978 as that's when I started and we have always used mm. If on the other hand you mean equipment that any body can buy then the answer is yes, Rain Gauge, Gauges - Digital Self Emptying and Sight Glass and the inexpensive Stratus RG202 Long Term Professional Rain Gauge and Snow Gauge.
  • "The data in Tacloban was obtained from weatherbase. I guess they already converted integer inches to obtain mm in the first place." I doubt it. Weatherbase appears to be a US company, contact section and the Philippines seems to be a metric country. Also the information at Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration is presented in metric. I would think that it is more likely that Weatherbase converted from mm/C to in/F rather than the other way round.
  • "Incidentally trailing zero is not supplied so one figure appears as 99.9 not 99.90 as it should by your reckoning." Yes I agree the figure should include the zero and all figures (inches) should be to two decimal places. Right now the figures are one, two and three decimal places.
  • "I also don't like the shading - why can't I specify a different colour other than the two you offer? My choice is lightgrey (or lightgray), or white." I'm not sure who the "you" is supposed to be. If you wanted a different colour why did you not take part in the discussions that can be found further up this page? Or start a new section.
  • You noted that there is a line break in the first column and I assume you mean here I'm not seeing that so it is probably due to your screen size and/or the fact that the weather box was set to 70%. Because of the screen I'm using combined with the clear template and the "Statue of MacArthur and Osmeña" image I'm seeing a large amount of white space. Looking at the page without the clear template seems fine to me but may not be to others.
  • "I'd be quite happy for no imperial (US) units to appear at all." Who wouldn't but I suspect that a lot of US based readers and editors along with a certain segment of other from countries that changed to the metric system in the last 30 - 40 years would be upset.
  • "I also don't like the tgng on the dates and the word 'avg'. What's the point of it?" Take a look at Template talk:Weather box#Abbreviation of "Average" (Avg.), Template talk:Weather box/Archive 4#Abbreviations and most importantly Category talk:Wikipedia formatting and function templates#New template requested — Discreet abbreviation. Basically the tagging is to make the page more accessible to people using screen readers.

Hope this helps. CambridgeBayWeather (talk) 19:29, 21 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Why did I change? Well
(a) we're talking historic weather data for an equatorial climate. I doubt the figures will move at all, and even if they did, I don't see how it's more of a hardship to change a fixed table than a dynamic one. (I did try SUBSTing, but it didn't work, probably because of the {{stack}}). I don't actually see how {{table}} is more hard-coded than {{weather box}} (it was Frietjes who changed it to really hard-coded). In either case any change has to be entered by hand.
(b) I already noted my objections to the shading, which apart from being hideous, didn't actually offer me any explanation of what it meant.
(c) The generated table didn't align along the right edge of the page
(d) For the interested passer-by, I'm sure that integer millimetres and inches to 1D are entirely adequate. This is a general encyclopedic article (or meant to be), not a scientific treatise.
(e) Even if the data were presented in a completely foreign language, for instance Cherokee, I could deduce that 12 columns represented months, and one for the year.
The only rain gauge I recall seeing was basically a funnel and a graduated beaker.
I have a notebook with a 10" screen.

(b) - What is or is not hideous is a matter of opinion. I find the the white box ugly and I don't see that it gives a better explanation than the standard.
(c) - That's because it was set to a 70% width. Remove that and the box is centred.
(d) - It should reflect the original and the conversions should be standard throughout.
(e) - It's not what we could deduce after looking at the table. It's what the screen reader can speak to the person who is unable to see the table.
That's all a standard rain gauge is, File:Standard rain Guage.JPG and http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Rain_gauge. It's inexpensive, long lasting and hard to screw up. CambridgeBayWeather (talk) 16:59, 25 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

RfC - Colours to be used in the weather box

We need to come to a consensus as to the colour of both the precipitation and temperature.

Currently we have available the following:
