1. Usage

Historically, the Grey template was used to color text in pages, with the "classic MediaWiki grey" color. It is now mapped on the STDarkGrey template that is a STMicroelectronics corporate color.

Usage:  {{Grey|<text to color>}}

Where <text to color> is the text to format in grey. If this template is called with no text, the hexadecimal code of the color is returned.

Do not use this template anymore: use the STDarkGrey template instead.
