Here are some examples using the Labour Party (note that there are multiple potential input names):
["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",},
((Party shortname|Labour Party (UK)))
→ Labour((Party shortname|Labour and Co-operative))
→ Labour Co-op((Party shortname|Labour Co-operative))
→ Labour Co-opIf the party is not present in the module, or the shortname is not in the module, the input party name will be returned.
((Party shortname|Not-a-party))
→ Not-a-party((Party shortname|A test no values))
→ A test no valuesTo check if the party is present in the module, use |error=value
.
((Party shortname|A test no values|error=ERROR))
→ A test no values (note in this case the input is in the module)((Party shortname|Not-a-party|error=ERROR))
→ ERROR
