@TimidRobot @possumbilities I was doing research on the implementation of this.

Could this be implemented upstream in the vocabulary repository. The reason for this thinking is as follows;

• All CC ancilliary sites don't have a uniform error page implementation.
• All sites have the same class of errors that could occur (i.e 4xx, 5xx etc), hence a design system can effectively accomodate these variations.

While a PR can be submitted for this specifically for this issue, I think it would be a great opportunity to standardize the error page structure.

Here is how I would go about it;

1. Implement the error page styles in the vocabulary repository, along with creating a specimen in the context folder, to visaulize the error page, collaborating with project maintainers for feedback.
2. Update the vocabulary version of the chooser repo to reflect the error styles update
3. Implement the error page in the chooser repo, following the approved design system arrived at in step 1.

Please let me me know what you think about this.

@egbadon-victor I like your approach, and I think its worth pursuing!

I believe you created a duplicate issue on the vocabulary repo here:

• https://github.com/creativecommons/vocabulary/issues/306

The original Issue:

• https://github.com/creativecommons/vocabulary/issues/1

I think it still worth pursuing as a means to solve the original Issue, and then apply changes downstream here and other places. I'd suggest you move work to the Vocabulary repo and submit a PR against https://github.com/creativecommons/vocabulary/issues/1 to accomplish that.

hello @possumbilities , I am a beginner and unsure why this is happening. Can you provide some concise advice to help me understand where I might be going wrong?
