模板:Fontcolor

Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

Purpose

{{ Font color }} is how you insert colorized text, such as red, orange, green, blue and indigo, and many others. You can specify its background color at the same time.

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

This template will use Wikipedia:HTML5 recommendations, inserting the span tags <span style="color:color">...</span> and <span style="background-color:color">...</span>, so the page increases its readability and usability in both the wikitext and the rendered page.

Usage

{{Font color}} has a one-color and a two-color form:

{{font color | color | text }}

{{font color | text color | background color | text }}.

Either form has a |link= option, for colorizing (otherwise blue or red) wikilink text.

|link=yes → [[text]]

|link=fullpagename → [[fullpagename]]

You can also name the other fields.

{{font color | fg=color | text=text }}

{{font color | fg=text color | bg=background color | text=text }}

You can name |fg= or |bg=, which is nice, but... if you name either of them, you must also name |text=, which is a compromise. (See Help:Template#Parameters for why.)

Spacing is of no concern.

.{{font color|tan|green|text with four words}}. → .text with four words.

. {{font color|tan|green|text with four words}} . → . text with four words .

. {{ font color | tan | green | text with four words }} . → . text with four words .

The |link= parameter is a good way to colorize wikilinks, and it is about as much typing as the pipe trick.

Although a wikilink accepts a font color (or other template or markup):

[[Wikipedia:Example|{{font color|white|blue|the Wikipedia:Example page}}]]

→ the Wikipedia:Example page (a font-colored link),

a font color does not accept a wikilink, it creates wikilinks itself with |link=.

模板:OK {{ font color | green | violet | Wikipedia:Example | link=yes }} → Wikipedia:Example (a |link= {{ font color }})
模板:Cross{{ font color | green | violet | the [[Wikipedia:Example]] page}} → the Wikipedia:Example page (Text with [[wikilink brackets]] overrides the designated color)
模板:Cross{{ font color | green | violet | [[Wikipedia:Exammple]] }} → the Wikipedia:Exammple page (Text with [[wikilink brackets]] overrides the designated color)
