Parameters

[edit]
Parameter Description
1 The political party's name. If a party is not found, place a request at the talk page.
error Optional, this parameter will return the provided |error= value if the module does not contain the requested party or color.

Examples

[edit]

Here are some examples using the Labour Party (note that there are multiple potential input names):

	["Labour and Co-operative"] = "Labour Party (UK)",
	["Labour Co-operative"] = "Labour Party (UK)",
    ...
	["Labour Party (Thailand)"] = {abbrev = "", color = "#FF0000", shortname = "",},
	["Labour Party (UK)"] = {abbrev = "Lab", color = "#E4003B", shortname = "Labour",},

If the party is not present in the module, or the abbreviation is not in the module, the input party name will be returned.

To check if the party is present in the module, use |error=value.

  • {{Party abbrev|A test no values|error=ERROR}} → A test no values (note in this case the input is in the module)
  • {{Party abbrev|Not-a-party|error=ERROR}} → ERROR
