Samples
{{color swatch|#0000FF|Blue}} creates:Blue
#0000FF
We strongly recommend adding a <ref></ref> to the main title, e.g.:
{{color swatch|#0000FF|Blue<ref>[http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/types.html#h-6.5 HTML 4.01 Specification]</ref>}} creates:Blue[1]
#0000FF
Optional parameters – floating left, and an internal caption:
{{color swatch|#0000FF|Blue|left|#0000FF}} creates:#0000FF
Blue
#0000FF
Change the internal caption's color with a fifth value:
{{color swatch|#0000FF|Blue|left|#0000FF|white}} creates:#0000FF
Blue
#0000FF
