Documentation for the automated taxobox system

Which automated taxobox template should I use?

(The decision tree below excludes {{Paraphyletic group}} and {{Population taxobox}}.)

Is the target taxon a virus or other subcellular entity?
YES:	Use {{Virusbox}}
NO:	Is the target taxon another kind of organism, living or extinct?
	YES:	Is the target taxon a species?
	↓	YES:	Is the target taxon an animal that is a hybrid between two species in a single genus?
	↓	↓	YES:	Use {{Hybridbox}}
	↓	↓	NO:	Use {{Speciesbox}} (unless the species name isn't a straightforward binomial in which case use {{Automatic taxobox}})
	↓	NO:	Is the target taxon a rank above species?
	↓		YES:	Use {{Automatic taxobox}}
	↓		NO:	Is the target taxon an animal subspecies?
	↓			YES:	Use {{Subspeciesbox}}
	↓			NO:	For subspecies and varieties, use {{Infraspeciesbox}} For other, special cases (e.g. forma specialis, strain), use {{Infraspeciesbox special}}
	NO:	For trace fossils (ichnotaxa), use {{Ichnobox}} For egg fossils (ootaxa), use {{Oobox}}

In very complicated cases, it might be easier to use a manual taxobox rather than asking for help automating it.

Please remember: There's not yet consensus to convert all taxoboxes to automatic taxoboxes. Please use your discretion when converting: and always preview your edit before saving.
