Usage
{{Color sample|red}}→{{Color sample|#00FF00}}→{{Color sample|#00FF00|description=green}}→
Adds a description of the color for screen reader users{{Color sample|{{party color|Independent politician}}}}→

Size option:
- A second parameter allows to define the size of the square: 1 is large (default), 0.6 is quite small, 0.2 is minuscule. Examples:
- {{Colorsample|#008000}} or {{Colorsample|#008000|1}} gives:
- {{Colorsample|#008000|0.5}} gives:
- {{Colorsample|#008000|0.2}} gives:
Note: When hovered over, the template shows the value used for color as a tooltip by default. This is also heard by a screen reader. An optional parameter, |description= can be used to change that to something more user-friendly, as shown in the third example.
