I'm colorblind and some links on the documentation https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.7/ don't look different enough from normal text. Mostly I'm having a hard time identifying links that aren't underlined.


I'm not colour blind, but I had to look at them for a moment to see they were even different colours, man that's a subtle difference.

Are you Red/Green colour blind? Personally I would have picked a colour closer to the green used in other places of the site to highlight links, but I suddenly became curious as to whether or not that would be any better for you.

Not that I can do anything about it, I'm just really nosy about it since you mentioned it.


Thanks for the feedback, this is invaluable! We would love to hear more from you on our issue tracker: https://github.com/django/djangoproject.com/issues


I'm sure they'd appreciate any feedback & examples on accessibility issues. If you've got some time consider raising it on the issue tracker.
