Background white edit
I made the background white on Template:Hiero and all subtemplates. For the usual skin setup this will not be a topic since all pages already have a white background, and few readers will experience any change, but since I have a pink background by my private modern.css, a few private-style geeks will perceive a small improvement. ... said: Rursus (mbork²) 11:32, 4 August 2009 (UTC)

Adding marker request edit
Adding help marker [?] redirecting to the template page at the bottom of the template may be useful for readers to signify which era corresponds to the template color. --CaeserKaiser (talk) 23:53, 8 March 2021 (UTC)
- I am working to have this solved differently: name & wikilink the era involved. If the era is relevent, it should be mentioned. If not, coloring is useless. -DePiep (talk) 23:34, 27 March 2021 (UTC)
- @DePiep:Very nice job but coloring the Hieroglyphic name draws more attention to the reader. --CaeserKaiser (talk) 00:28, 29 March 2021 (UTC)
- I'm not convinced. Era-coloring only helps when you see the whole timeline (like in {{History of Egypt}} -- by the way, different colors in there ;-) ).
- Using era coloring this way (for a secondary topic even) is distracting the reader. Colors are not for "illustration". Also, I am happy that we have added the actual era wikilink now. -DePiep (talk) 18:40, 29 March 2021 (UTC)

Center the image edit
It is preferred to center the image in the box. Until today, this was done by using <center> tags, added to in the input. However, <center> is deprecated and should be resolved other ways.
For starters, I have removed those tags from individual input [1] (some 35120 articles were edited), and added it as generic to the template [2]. From this, we can handle the deprecation & removal simply from this template. -DePiep (talk) 23:30, 27 March 2021 (UTC)
Changes, small and serious edit
- I have set the bordercolor to #ddd (light grey), removing era-based coloring. There is no use in fancy coloring by unexplained logic. It even brings restlessness. -DePiep (talk) 23:40, 27 March 2021 (UTC)
- For now, I have removed the era-backgroundcolor. I don't know if it is helpful (since: not expolained). However, the erea now has its years presented. e.g. 1st Intermediate Period (2181–2055 BC). -DePiep (talk) 00:46, 28 March 2021 (UTC)
