Event Timeline

Some related discussion was in T341305: Talk page notification alert bar: revised styling to meet WCAG color contrast AA requirements

Though this smaller issue can be fixed by an always-set link colour, I guess.

Change #1060860 had a related patch set uploaded (by Rae Squirrel; author: Rae Squirrel):

[mediawiki/skins/Vector@master] Vector: Set echo alert style

Just-submitted patch would prevent the link from changing colors on hover, which limits the accessibility problems in the meantime when T341305 is still being worked on.
