Template:Linked species list

Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

This template uses Lua:

Module:TaxonList

Usage[change source]

This template is one of a number intended for use in taxoboxes under the |subdivision= or |synonyms= parameters, to produce a list of taxa in a consistent format. The table below shows the behaviour of the available templates.

Taxon name			Template
Italicized	Linked	Bold	Template
no	no	no	{{Taxon list}}
no	yes	no	{{Linked taxon list}}
yes	no	no	{{Species list}}, alias {{Genus list}}
yes	yes	no	{{Linked species list}}, alias {{Linked genus list}}
yes	no	yes	{{Bold species list}}, alias {{Bold genus list}}

Use like this:

{{Species list
| Spexia speciosa | Authority, 2003
| †Spexia additiona | Others et al., 2002
| Spexia typa | Describer, 1888 (type)
| Spexia dubia |
| Specia dubia ''subsp.'' maxima |
}}

Both the taxon name and authority will be automatically formatted to produce:

Spexia speciosa Authority, 2003
†Spexia additiona Others et al., 2002
Spexia typa Describer, 1888 (type)
Spexia dubia
Specia dubia subsp. maxima

Note that if the authority is not known, the "|" must still be present after the taxon name.

If a "connecting term" is present in a botanical name, such as "subsp.", "var." or "f.", then this should not be italicized. The template should automatically de-italicize connecting terms. If this fails, you can put '' either side of the connecting term to de-italicize it.

Mark incomplete lists using |incomplete=yes, which will add "(incomplete)" to the end of the list.

Variations[change source]

To automatically link the content of every taxon name, use {{Linked species list}}. To bold-face the species (e.g. if they will never have their own pages, when listed in a genus article) use {{Bold species list}}.

For example:

{{Linked species list / {{Linked genus list
| Spexia speciosa | Authority, 2003
| †Spexia additiona | Others et al., 2002
| Spexia typa | Describer, 1888 (type)
| Spexia dubia {{!}} S. dubia | <!--creates a piped link-->
| ''[[Puma (genus) {{!}} Puma ]]'' | Jardine, 1834 <!--handles a disambiguated genus name-->
}}

produces

Spexia speciosa Authority, 2003
†Spexia additiona Others et al., 2002
Spexia typa Describer, 1888 (type)
S. dubia
Puma Jardine, 1834

Each of the three "species list" templates has a "genus list" alias.

Abbreviating

Adding |abbreviated=yes will cause the displayed name to be abbreviated.

Spexia speciosa Authority, 2003
†Spexia additiona Others et al., 2002
Spexia speciosa subsp. speciosa
Spexia sect. Additiona

Extinct taxa[change source]

The name of an extinct taxon can be preceded by one of the following markers: † &dagger; {{extinct}}. Any of them will appear as † in the output. The † will not be italicized and will not be included in a wikilink.
