== Purpose ==
{{tl | Font color }} is how you insert colorized text, such as
{{ font color | red | red }},
{{ font color | orange | orange }},
{{ font color | green | green }},
{{ font color | blue | blue | link = cat }} and
{{ font color | indigo | indigo }},
and [[Help:Color#Color generation guide|many others]].
You can specify its {{ font color | bg=yellow | fg=indigo | text=background }} color at the same time.

{{tl | Font color }} is also how you can color wikilinks
to something other than blue for when you need to work within background colors.
Normally <kbd>[<nowiki/>[ wikilink ]]</kbd> → [[wikilink]],
but but here we use a {{tl | font color }} with {{para | link }} to create a black wikilink →
{{ font color | black | violet | link=yes |    wikilink    }}
You can make any text link to any page using the {{para|link}} parameter.

This template will use the latest [[Wikipedia:HTML5]] recommendations,
inserting the span tags
{{tag|span|params=style=color:''color''}} and
{{tag|span|params=style=background-color:''color''}} for you, so your page increases its readability and usability in both the wikitext and the rendered page.

== Usage ==

{{tlf | Font color }} has a one-color and a two-color form:
: <kbd>{<nowiki/>{font color | ''color'' | ''text'' }}</kbd>
: <kbd>{<nowiki/>{font color | ''text color'' | ''background color'' | ''text'' }}</kbd>.

Either form has a <kbd>|link=</kbd> option, for colorizing (otherwise blue or red) wikilink text.
: <kbd>|link{{=}}yes</kbd> → <code>[<nowiki/>[''text'']]</code>
: <kbd>|link=''[[wp:pgn|fullpagename]]''</kbd> → <code>[<nowiki/>[''fullpagename'']]</code>

You can also name the other fields.
: <kbd>{<nowiki/>{font color | fg=''color'' | text=''text'' }}</kbd>
: <kbd>{<nowiki/>{font color | fg=''text color'' | bg=''background color'' | text=''text'' }}</kbd>
You can name <kbd>|fg=</kbd> or <kbd>|bg=</kbd>, which is nice, but...
if you name either of them, you must also name <kbd>|text=</kbd>, which is a compromise.
(See [[Help:Template#Parameters]] for why.)

Spacing is of no concern.
:<code>.</code><kbd>{<nowiki/>{font color|tan|green|text with four words}}</kbd><code>.</code> → <code>.</code>{{font color|tan|green|text with four words }}<code>.</code>
:<code>.</code><kbd> {<nowiki/>{font color|tan|green|text with four words}} </kbd><code>.</code> → <code>.</code> {{font color|tan|green|text with four words }} <code>.</code>
:<code>.</code><kbd> {<nowiki/>{ font color | tan | green | text with four words }} </kbd><code>.</code> → <code>.</code> {{ font color | tan | green | text with four words }} <code>.</code>

=== Parameters ===
{{Aligned table

== Examples ==

{|class=wikitable
!Markup
!Renders as
|-
| <code><nowiki>{{ font color | green | green text }}</nowiki></code>
| {{ font color | green | green text }}
|-
| <code><nowiki>{{ font color | blue | do not style text as a link }}</nowiki></code>
| {{ font color | blue | do not style text as a link }}
|-
| <code><nowiki>{{ font color | white | black | white with black background }}</nowiki></code>
| {{ font color | white | black | white with black background }}
|-
| | <code>{<nowiki/>{ font color'''{{big | {{! }}<nowiki/>{{! }} }}'''yellow | default text in yellow background }}</code>
| {{ font color | | yellow | default text in yellow background }}
|-
| | <code>{<nowiki/>{ font color'''{{big | {{! }} }}'''bg=yellow | text = default text in yellow background }}</code>
| {{ font color | bg=yellow | text = default text in yellow background }}
|}

{|class=wikitable
!Markup
!Renders as
|-
| <code><nowiki>{{ font color | white | blue | Wikipedia:Example | link = yes }}</nowiki></code></code>
| {{ font color | white | blue | Wikipedia:Example | link = yes }}
|-
| <code><nowiki>{{ font color | white | blue | Wikipedia:Example | link = Wikipedia:Sandbox }}</nowiki></code>
| {{ font color | white | blue | Wikipedia:Example | link = Wikipedia:Sandbox }}
|-
| <code><nowiki>{{ font color | text = Wikipedia:Example | link = Wikipedia:Sandbox | bg
= blue | fg = white }}</nowiki></code>
| {{ font color | text = Wikipedia:Example | link = Wikipedia:Sandbox | bg = blue | fg = white }}
|}

The {{para|link}} parameter is a good way to colorize wikilinks,
and it is about as much typing as the [[wp:pipe trick|pipe trick]].

Although a wikilink accepts a ''font color'' (or other template or markup):
:<code>{{big|[<nowiki/>[}}Wikipedia:Example{{big|{{!}}}}{<nowiki />{font color|white|blue|the Wikipedia:Example page}}{{big|]]}}</code>
:→ [[Wikipedia:Example | {{ font color | white | blue | the Wikipedia:Example page}}]] (a font-colored link),
a ''font color'' does not accept a wikilink, it creates wikilinks itself with {{para|link}}.
*{{OK }} {<nowiki/>{ font color | green | violet | Wikipedia:Example | link=yes }} → {{ font color | green | violet | Wikipedia:Example | link=yes }} (a {{para|link}} {{tl | font color }})
*{{cross }}{<nowiki/>{ font color | green | violet | the [<nowiki/>[Wikipedia:Example]] page}} → {{ font color | green | violet | the [[Wikipedia:Example]] page }} (Text with [<nowiki/>[wikilink brackets]] overrides the designated color)
*{{cross }}{<nowiki/>{ font color | green | violet | [<nowiki/>[Wikipedia:Exammple]] }} → {{ font color | green | violet | the [[Wikipedia:Exammple]] page }} (Text with [<nowiki/>[wikilink brackets]] overrides the designated color)
<includeonly>For more examples see [[/testcases]].</includeonly>
For actual mainspace template usage, here are search links for
* {{sl | hastemplate:"font color" | label=all usage }}.
* {{template usage | font color | pattern=link= | prefix=: | label=where <code>{{! }}link=</code> is used }}.
* {{sl | hastemplate: "font color" prefix:F }} showing its use in articles whose title begins with the letter "F".
