{{hl}}

For adding yellow highlight to specified text. The highlight color can be changed, and the highlight can also be set to expire at a certain date. Please keep template usage to talk pages only.

Usage

{{highlight | text | color (optional) | expiration (optional) }}

Parameters

text (parameter 1): Enter the text to be highlighted.

Optional parameters

These parameters are optional, but unused parameters must be separated by a pipe (see examples below):

color (parameter 2): Colors may be specified by word (e.g., "red", "blue", "lightgreen") or in hexadecimal format (e.g., "#FF0066", "#C0C0C0"). If no value is given for the color, the template defaults to yellow.

expiration (parameter 3): Highlights may be set to expire on a certain date, which leaves the text as-is, but removes the highlight color. The expiration value can be specified in any format.

Examples

code	output	notes
{{highlight\|text}}	text	The default highlight color is yellow
{{highlight\|text\|lightblue}}	text	The second parameter is the highlight color
{{highlight\|text\|lightblue\|2011-01-01}}	text	This is not highlighted since 1 January 2011 is in the past
{{highlight\|text\|lightblue\|2024-07-09}}	text	There is no highlighting on the expiration date (purge this page's server cache if today's date is not shown)
{{highlight\|text\|#00FF00\|1 January 2099}}	text	This is highlighted since 1 January 2099 is in the future
{{highlight\|text\|\|January 1, 2099}}	text	Note the color parameter, left blank, is still represented with a pipe (followed by the expiration parameter pipe)
