Revision as of 01:02, 3 November 2005 by Hesperian (talk | contribs) (Bug in taxobox)(diff) ← Previous revision | Latest revision (diff) | Newer revision → (diff)About this template
The implementation of this template is scarier than its usage. For one example of how to use it see the the edit page of Orca - http://en.wikipedia.org/search/?title=Orca&action=edit. Most parameters are optional, so if a particular entry is not relevant for your case, just leave it out. See the taxobox usage for an explanation.
Suggested parameters
Great work bringing on the new template!... but there are still a couple of parameters missing.
Firstly, I need to be able to specify taxa at "Section" and "Series" rank. See Taxonomy of Banksia for evidence of a number of non-existent species articles, for which these ranks will be needed when I get around to writing them.
Secondly, the "Diversity" option was very useful. I used it at Banksia to state the number of species, since the subdivision was at subgenus rank. It is also very useful for higher taxa such as families and orders.
Thirdly, the "Synonyms" option was also useful, and should be included here.

The following template code would appear correct, but produces the incorrect box on the right:
{{Taxobox
| color = lightgreen
| name = Jarrah
| status = {{StatusSecure}}
| regnum = ]ae
| divisio = ]
| classis = ]
| ordo = ]
| familia = ]

| species = '''''E. marginata'''''
| binomial = ''Eucalyptus marginata''
| binomial_authority = ] ex ]
| subdivision_ranks = Subspecies
| subdivision = ''E. marginata'' subsp. ''marginata''<br/>
''E. marginata'' subsp. ''thalassica''
}}
