The template {{font color}} is how you insert colorized text. You can specify its background color at the same time.
Contents
Purpose
{{font color}} is also how you can color wikilinks to something other than blue for when you need to work within background colors. Normally [[Pink Cyclone]] produces Pink Cyclone, but here we use a font color with |link= to create a black wikilink → Pink Cyclone. You can make any text link to any page using the |link= parameter.
This template uses the latest 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 form:
{{font color|fg=text color|text=text}}{{font color|text color|text}}
And a two‐color form:
{{font color|fg=text color|bg=background color|text=text}}{{font color|text color|background color|text}}
Either form has a |link= option, for colorizing (otherwise blue or red) wikilink text:
|link=yesproduces[[text]]|link=Erikproduces[[Erik]]
Parameters
In a one‐color form:
|fg=or|1=- The color of the text.
|bg=or|2=- The color of the background.
|link=- =yes or =fullpagename. If there is a link.
In a two‐color form:
|fg=or|1=- The color of the text.
|bg=or|2=- The color of the background.
|text=or|3=- The text to display.
|link=- =yes or =fullpagename. If there is a link, the page target of the link.
Examples

| Markup | Renders as |
|---|---|
{{font color|white|#57A3E6|Eve|link=yes}}
|
Eve |
{{font color|white|#57A3E6|Eve is a nice girl|link=Eve}}
|
Eve is a nice girl |
{{font color|fg=white|bg=#57A3E6|text=Eve is a nice girl|link=Eve}}
|
Eve is a nice girl |
The |link= parameter is a good way to colorize wikilinks:
- ✓
[[Becca|{{font color|black|#FFBCA8|The daughter of Tina}}]]produces The daughter of Tina (a font‐colored link).
However the template {{font color}} does not accept a wikilink, it creates wikilinks itself with the |link= parameter:
- ✓
{{font color|white|#C990FF|Missy|link=yes}}produces Missy. - ✗
{{font color|white|#C990FF|The page about [[Missy]]}}produces The page about Missy because the text with wikilink brackets overrides the designated color.
