I read through the wiki but haven't found the answer for some special characters I've seen used so far.
As example here is one of Wykyyds
## Title: |cFF2222Wykkyd's|r Framework |c0066991.4.21.1|r
I understand how the color is applied and how the added spaces affect the text.
But what does the | character do and what does the r character do?

When you want to change text color, you have to enclose text with tags "|c<color_in_hex>" and "|r". Tags won't be printed and everything inside those two tags will be in color defined by <color_in hex>.
So string
"|cF70D1AFerrari Red|r" will be displayed as
Ferrari Red
