@Jdlrobson could you please retry the night mode check with the AutoContrastFixer gadget enabled? As explained in the issue description it is necessary to automatically fix contrast issues until all of our templates are updated.

You must decide these gadgets are ready first for me to retry the dark mode check.
Dark mode can only be enabled when a solution exists for logged out users (rather than a potential one - the tools not good enough to do that right now).

That aside, we are planning our next set of deployments for early February so we still have time to rectify this and run it again once you've got acceptance from the community.

Importantly, you need to fix these issues via site CSS or template styles and should NOT resort to any JavaScript. For this reason, the AutoContrastFixer does not seem like the appropriate solution here, as for anonymous users this would negatively impact site performance. Applying JavaScript to fix templates will result in unnecessary repaints. The Italian Wikipedia did something similar which delayed the roll out of dark mode to anonymous users.

Note the initial goal here is accessibility. It is not about making sure all templates have a dark theme and use dark colors. For example for fixing accessibility issues in:
https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/seks?vectornightmode=1&minervanightmode=1 you should add the notheme class to the inflection-table element to help unblock dark mode deployment and fix this template to use darker colors at a later date.

Happy to help in anyway I can.. just let me know what I can help with!

I evaluated the top 500 articles on Wiktionary and from what I can see, dark mode has more accessibility issues than light mode.
Please address the issues flagged here and we can reassess:

• https://night-mode-checker.wmcloud.org/enwiktionary/light.html
• https://night-mode-checker.wmcloud.org/enwiktionary/night.html

Is it possible to regenerate this list on a schedule, similar to what is done for the Wikipedias? We are actively working to resolve the issues and it would be great to keep track of progress.

Done: https://night-mode-checker.wmcloud.org/
But note this only captures the top 50 most read, not the top 500 which is the criteria we use to enable dark mode and will only run daily, but hopefully it helps point you in the right direction. Note https://github.com/wikimedia/color-contrast-checker has some instructions on how you can run it locally or setup your own toolforge tool for your own project (https://github.com/wikimedia/color-contrast-checker?tab=readme-ov-file#for-wikis-wanting-dark-mode-for-anonymous-users)

Thanks to the community for all the efforts here. This looks really to be deployed whenever you are ready.

We're ready when you are! How often are the batches taken care of?

I typically do batch deploys every 3 months for every wiki that is ready and our last deploy was early February so I'll probably get to this end of April/early May. I try to avoid adhoc deploys.

Any community member with Gerrit account can deploy this sooner if they have the capacity. I can provide a +1 review if that's helpful.
