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 [[:Template:((!]] 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.
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=.
- Ok -
{{Font color|green|violet|Wikipedia:Example|link = yes}}→ Wikipedia:Example (a|link={{font color}}) - Wrong -
{{Font color|green|violet|the Template:((!Wikipedia:Example]] page}}→ the Wikipedia:Example page (Text with Template:((!wikilink brackets]] overrides the designated color) - Wrong -
{{Font color|green|violet|Template:((!Wikipedia:Example]]}}→ Wikipedia:Example (Text with Template:((!wikilink brackets]] overrides the designated color)
