Takeaways from previous discussions

Regarding the label "Indigo"

  1. Indigo is the legitimate name of a dye, a chemical extract, and several well-defined colors from various color systems.
  2. The extract, the dye, the segment of the rainbow labelled indigo, and the colors that commercial color companies label indigo are all different from one another.
  3. None are absolutely authoritative.

Regarding the inclusion of color swatches

Including color swatches may or may not be useful at this point, unless another system gives another color the label "indigo" there are many variations on indigo and it does not appear useful to include them all, nor add others as they appear.

This is all in my IMHO

Wrong Color

Indigo is a dark shade of blue, but someone has it showing a shade of purple that's similar to indigo instead. --174.17.102.201 (talk) 01:19, 26 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

No, it is not varied colors. It's various shades of blue, some of which a color blind person could confuse for purple. --174.17.102.201 (talk) 01:21, 26 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Yep. Indigo is the color of standard blue jeans as they were traditionally dyed with indigo (and now dyed with synthetic indigo). — al-Shimoni (talk) 00:07, 28 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Your showing purple. I'm not colorblind. I'm tetrachromatic. I can clearly see the colors better than others. It's purple. --184.101.140.186 (talk) 20:25, 23 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Possible removal from list

Entries in List of colors: A–F contained links to this page.

The entries are :

  • Dark imperial blue (#00416A)
  • Dark imperial blue (#00147E)
  • Imperial blue
  • Japanese indigo

I don't see any evidence that these colors are discussed in this article and plan to delete them from the list per this discussion: Talk:List_of_colors#New_approach_to_review_of_entries

If someone decides that these colors should have a section in this article and it is added, I would appreciate a ping.--S Philbrick(Talk) 17:41, 22 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
