Let's deprecate scalar/string argument. I don't expect is is widely used, and `ListedColormap([0.3]*7)` is simple enough (we should not make additional APIs just because somebody may not know Python).

I believe *N* can go as well. Truncating colors by the user is simple. Repeating a short list multiple times should be the very exception (and should possibly have required...

The parameter *N* is deprecated in #29135. When the deprecation expires, *N* will be gone, which resolves this issue. I'm closing as there are no further actions needed. The deprecation...

It depends: in the majority of cases e.g. `savefig`, `figlegend` these are customized wrappers and `*args, **kwargs` are only shorthands to pass though all parameters. You could spell them out...

`xlim` and `ylim` are actually not good examples at they have a a relative complex signature. the *args, **kwargs. Checking the whole of pyplot, there's actually not too much we...

I think you are misunderstanding. The desired position of the anchor depends on the rotation. For the positive roations it's the last letter, for negative rotations it would be the...

@kyracho you are very welcome! I suggest to start with an implementation for the xticks (yticks are analogous but likely need their own code path). You can take my example...

I believe this was due to the context of the original issue comment mentioning PathCollection. To include sizes in the consistency check, you have to do something in CollectionWithSizes. I...

Note: We have a mechanism for collections : https://matplotlib.org/devdocs/api/collections_api.html#matplotlib.collections.Collection.get_datalim And `Axes.add_collection` will use this depending on the `autolim` parameter`.

@gabisoaresm everybody is welcome to contribute. However, for this issue, you should have relevant experience in API design and refactoring. Currently, only the high-level goal is given. Part of the...
