Please do not add promotional material to Wikipedia, as you did to Light-on-dark color scheme. While objective prose about beliefs, organisations, people, products or services is acceptable, Wikipedia is not a vehicle for soapboxing, advertising or promotion. Thank you.

- The addition of content in the history section is not to promote FORA.tv. The company has been dissolved and hence needs no promotion or advertising.

- It is part of the history of the light-on-dark color scheme as the website was designed by me in 2009, Apple released Mojave in 2018. Please also refer to Responsive Web Design as an example, where Audi.com was the first to demonstrate a responsive website.

- "First major site to feature a layout that adapts in a non-trivial manner to browser viewport width was Audi.com launched in late 2001." Ditheringsurface (talk) 11:41, 1 April 2023 (UTC)
- I've edited the text to remove names of people that may come across as self-promotional. Ditheringsurface (talk) 12:17, 1 April 2023 (UTC)
- This is the first I've heard of Fora.tv so the mention is—even if you did clear WP:Verifiability, which you certainly haven't—very likely WP:UNDUE, and 2009 couldn't possibly be the first year in which a website adopted a light-on-dark color scheme. And if you are introducing material about something you designed yourself, that's WP:COI and it doesn't make much of a difference whether it mentions you by name. Maybe raise it on the talk page and others will add it if they find merit. But you can't put it yourself. Nardog (talk) 13:18, 1 April 2023 (UTC)
- Thanks, I'll add it there for consideration for inclusion. Ditheringsurface (talk) 19:06, 1 April 2023 (UTC)
