Template:Taxobox name/doc

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is a documentation subpage for Template:Taxobox name (see that page for the template itself).
It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page.

Generates the "name" parameter for {{Taxobox}}es, if unspecified.

Pass the following parameters: {{Taxobox name|genus|species|binomial}}

Rationale
If any of the "genus", "species", or "binomial" parameters specified in the template EXACTLY MATCH the name of the page, AND the "name" parameter is unspecified, the page's name in italicised form will be adopted as the name for the taxobox.
