Template:Don't edit this line/doc
It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page.
To avoid major disruption and server load, any changes should be tested in the template's /sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own user subpage. The tested changes can be added to this page in a single edit. Consider discussing changes on the talk page before implementing them.
Usage
[edit ]This template is transcluded from every taxonomy template page (i.e. every page whose name is of the form "Template:Taxonomy/taxon") when |machine code= is not specified. This should only happen when viewing a taxonomy template page. It uses function callTaxonomyKey in Module:Autotaxobox to prepare for and then use {{Taxonomy key }} to display the taxonomy template page in a more readable form.
As an example, see Template:Taxonomy/Felis – the display is created by {{Don't edit this line |rank=genus |link=Felis |parent=Felinae}} given that |machine code= is not given a value.
The template places a taxonomy template in one of the following tracking categories:
- Category:Taxonomy templates – all 'normal' taxonomy templates
- Category:Taxonomy templates for species – subcategory
- Category:Taxonomy templates with qualified names – subcategory
- Category:Taxonomy templates with query – subcategory
Parameters
[edit ]See Wikipedia:Automated taxobox system/taxonomy templates#Format of a taxonomy template. Note that the |rank= parameter should be in Latin, not in English. So for example, |rank=tribus, not |rank=tribe.
