== Usage ==

== Parameters ==
<section begin="Parameters"/>
{| class="wikitable"
|-
! scope="col" | Parameter
! scope="col" | Description
|-
! scope="row" | 1
| The political party's name. If a party is not found, place a request at the [[Module talk:Political party|talk page]].

|}<section end="Parameters"/>

==Examples==
Here are some examples using the [[Labour Party (UK)|Labour Party]] (note that there are multiple potential input names):
<pre>
	["Labour and Co-operative"] = "Labour Party (UK)",
	["Labour Co-operative"] = "Labour Party (UK)",
    ...
	["Labour Party (Thailand)"] = {abbrev = "", color = "#000000", shortname = "",},
	["Labour Party (UK)"] = {abbrev = "Lab", color = "#E4003B", shortname = "Labour",},
</pre>

* {{tlx|Party color|Labour Party (UK)}} → {{Party color|Labour Party (UK)}}
* {{tlx|Party color|Labour and Co-operative}} → {{Party color|Labour and Co-operative}}
* {{tlx|Party color|Labour Co-operative}} → {{Party color|Labour Co-operative}}

===Error messages===
If the party is not supplied, or the color is not stored for the party, an error will be returned. Note that if the party is not in the module at all (third example below) the default color #F8F9FA will be returned.
* {{tlx|Party color}} → {{Party color}}
* {{tlx|Party color|A test no values}} → {{Party color|A test no values}}
* {{tlx|Party color|Not-a-party}} → {{Party color|Not-a-party}}

To avoid generating a script error, use {{para|error|value}}. Note that this error value will also be passed if the party is not stored in the module.
* {{tlx|Party color|A test no values|error{{=}}ERROR}} → {{Party color|A test no values|error=ERROR}}
* {{tlx|Party color|Not-a-party|error{{=}}ERROR}} → {{Party color|Not-a-party|error=ERROR}}
