Which I think is much more readable. Plus the tooltip explains why we're saying "Character" there, which we don't really explain anywhere (even if it does seem obvious). Since this is such a widely used template, I figured I should ask for feedback before changing it. Whatever we decide on, the same should also get applied to {{tl|Boss Name}} and {{tl|Contact}}. -- [[User:Sekoia|Sekoia]] 18:30, 1 June 2012 (UTC) | Which I think is much more readable.

:I think that style suggestion is a good one. But, to me, the real source of fail there is the stupid use of magenta in a DivBox... I don't see a reason why we need to try and match the exact colors used for each popup box the game throws at us. Making it lighter so as to be readable would be a good solution to me as well. {{User:Thirty7/Sig}} 18:59, 1 June 2012 (UTC) | |||

Formatting
- Suggestion: Make this stand out from normal text somehow. I dunno. Color it. Italicize. The lot - Skarmory The PG 18:21, 4 February 2008 (UTC)
- I'd prefer very subtle formatting, if any -- I'm personally not opposed to it standing out a small amount, but I don't think it's should stand out a lot. Italics seem too much. Perhaps a color, as long as it's not too much of a contrast (for example, not red). Just curious, why do you think it needs to stand out? -- Sekoia 20:43, 4 February 2008 (UTC)
Formatting conflicts
I just noticed the the coloring for this template doesn't render well when used within a {{divbox}} with magenta selected, as on Belladonna Vetrano (Contact). I'd imagine there's other backgrounds where it fails as well. Example:
Maybe it's just because I'm colorblind, but the word Character is completely unreadable to me there. I would suggest that we do away with color formatting for this template. I really don't think it needs to be specially styled. But if we do really need to keep some sort of special styling, I suggest we do this: Character. Thus the above would become:
