 "#rrggbb" format (`to_hex`), and a sequence of colors to an (n, 4)
 RGBA array (`to_rgba_array`).  Caching is used for efficiency.
 
-Matplotlib recognizes the following formats to specify a color:
-
-* an RGB or RGBA (red, green, blue, alpha) tuple of float values in closed
-  interval ``[0, 1]`` (e.g., ``(0.1, 0.2, 0.5)`` or ``(0.1, 0.2, 0.5, 0.3)``);
-* a hex RGB or RGBA string (e.g., ``'#0f0f0f'`` or ``'#0f0f0f80'``;
-  case-insensitive);
-* a shorthand hex RGB or RGBA string, equivalent to the hex RGB or RGBA
-  string obtained by duplicating each character, (e.g., ``'#abc'``, equivalent
-  to ``'#aabbcc'``, or ``'#abcd'``, equivalent to ``'#aabbccdd'``;
-  case-insensitive);
-* a string representation of a float value in ``[0, 1]`` inclusive for gray
-  level (e.g., ``'0.5'``);
-* one of the characters ``{'b', 'g', 'r', 'c', 'm', 'y', 'k', 'w'}``, which
-  are short-hand notations for shades of blue, green, red, cyan, magenta,
-  yellow, black, and white. Note that the colors ``'g', 'c', 'm', 'y'`` do not
-  coincide with the X11/CSS4 colors. Their particular shades were chosen for
-  better visibility of colored lines against typical backgrounds.
-* a X11/CSS4 color name (case-insensitive);
-* a name from the `xkcd color survey`_, prefixed with ``'xkcd:'`` (e.g.,
-  ``'xkcd:sky blue'``; case insensitive);
-* one of the Tableau Colors from the 'T10' categorical palette (the default
-  color cycle): ``{'tab:blue', 'tab:orange', 'tab:green', 'tab:red',
-  'tab:purple', 'tab:brown', 'tab:pink', 'tab:gray', 'tab:olive', 'tab:cyan'}``
-  (case-insensitive);
-* a "CN" color spec, i.e. 'C' followed by a number, which is an index into the
-  default property cycle (:rc:`axes.prop_cycle`); the indexing is intended to
-  occur at rendering time, and defaults to black if the cycle does not include
-  color.
+Colors that Matplotlib recognizes are listed at
+:doc:`/tutorials/colors/colors`.
