Template:Colored link/doc

This is a documentation subpage for Template:Colored link (see that page for the Template itself). It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original Template.

Usage

Links in prose should never be manually colored. This template is intended for coloring links when necessary inside other templates, tables, etc where the background color means standard link colors are illegible.

This template takes three parameters: the color of the link, the article being linked to, and optional text to display as a piped link.

{{colored link|olive|Page name to link|Alternative text}} → Alternative text

{{colored link|white|Page name to link|Alternative text|1px black}} → Alternative text
