Perhaps you could include a key indicating the colors. For example 55 mph = black; 65 mph = gold. Otherwise, its great will give other feedback if I find issues.
Are you sure you're posting about the correct script. This is the thread for validator which adds highlights to segments that have errors.

I haven't found any guidelines in this matter, so I add the mark. Is there a way to switch off the check for this in Validator?

Hawaii State Managers are in discussion as to using complete diacritical marks for all names. There is quite a movement here for making all things PC.
You can turn off check #171, or create a Hawaii localization package which can fully customize it. If you need help I can help you, if you want to reach out privately.

Is it for a highway loop eg US-27 LOOP, or a regular street with loop in the name eg G Washington Loop?

I saw it on the wiki, but think it was a testing page, but that was the only guidance I could find on how abbreviations should be (including using BUS instead of Bus, to pronounce business)
If it's a hwy loop it should be all caps, just like all the other banners. If it's a street name suffix it should be abbreviated Lp as mentioned in the US wiki.

This code was specific to the USA and has already been implemented. There was actually a further update to this code pushed yesterday. The PL mentioned is in Australia and should therefore not be affected.

Why does Validator keep saying incorrectly abbreviated street name? (#171)
Do you have any external localization packages for validator installed?

I removed #171 from the Austrailia Localization pack. Please update and let me know directly if you have any other issues with it.
Do you the internal or external localization pack for AU?

You mean you would have preferred if the author mentioned it in the update post when it was published?
I agree [emoji6]
