These three templates can be used to make up a multiple row list of navigation boxes based on office succession. {{start box}} declares the table, {{succession box}} declares a row of data, and {{end box}} closes the table.

Succession box template takes four parameters:

  • before - The predecessor name (example uses [[John G. Downey]] in the first box, [[Timothy Guy Phelps]] in the second)
  • title - The subject's title ([[List of Governors of California|Governors of California]] and Presidents of the [[Southern Pacific Railroad]])
  • years - The subject's term in that title ([[1861]]–[[1863]] and [[1868]]–[[1890]])
  • after - The successor name ([[Frederick Low]] and [[Collis P. Huntington]])

Note that this set of tempaltes can be used to describe entities as well as people. For example, these templates are used on articles where the railroad was awarded either Short Line Railroad of the Year or Regional Railroad of the Year. See Wisconsin and Southern Railroad for an example.
