It is recommended to name the SVG file “PlanckianLocus.svg”—then the template

Summary
DescriptionPlanckianLocus.png
English: CIE xy 1931
chromaticity diagram including the
Planckian Locus. The Planckian locus is the path that a
black body color will take through the diagram as the black body temperature changes. Lines crossing the locus indicate lines of constant correlated
color temperature. Monochromatic wavelengths are shown in blue in units of nanometers.
Latest version (16 April 2005) uses 1931 CIE standard observer, since this is the most commonly used standard observer.
