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 = "#FF0000", shortname = "",},
["Labour Party (UK)"] = {abbrev = "Lab", color = "#E4003B", shortname = "Labour",},
{{Political party|Labour Party (UK)|abbrev}}→ Template:Political party{{Political party|Labour Party (UK)|shortname}}→ Template:Political party{{Political party|Labour and Co-operative|shortname}}→ Template:Political party{{Political party|Labour Co-operative|shortname}}→ Template:Political party{{Political party|Labour Party (UK)|color}}→ Template:Political party
If the party is not present in the module, or the shortname or abbreviation are not in the module, the input party name will be returned.

To avoid generating a script error, use |error=value. Note that this error value will also be passed if the party is not stored in the module.
