[ ] A simple hack to provide alternate colors to external (non-wiki) links (default: red).

Usage

{{elc|<link address>|<link name>|[<color>]}}

The color parameter is optional, defaults to red, and can be any named color or hash value. Note that links containing an = character will break the template, due to the way MediaWiki passes parameter values. A possible workaround is to use this format:

{{elc|1=<link address>|2=<link name>|[3=<color>]}}

Example

{{elc|http://wiki.urbandead.com/|UrbanDeadWiki|green}} produces UrbanDeadWiki.
