Module:Sandbox/Jts1882/Biota infobox/doc

This is a documentation subpage for Module:Sandbox/Jts1882/Biota infobox.
It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original module page.

This module started out as a quick module for template {{paraphyletic group}}, but has morphed into a module to emulate the {{taxobox/core}}. Handling for templates that call the core has been added for {{taxobox}}, {{Automatic taxobox}} and {{Speciesbox}}, but is incomplete.

Data subpages

User:Jts1882/sandbox/test/taxobox (paraphyletic group version)

Usage

{{#invoke:Sandbox/Jts1882/Biota_Infobox|function_name}}

Several functions provide different entry points for development purposes:

main - all the options,
core - emulates the core but uses other taxobox templates to pass parameters to the core
automatictaxobox - emulates {{automatic taxobox}} with parameter validation, but still uses the {{Taxobox/core}} template
TODO add similar entry point for speciesbox, subspeciesbox, infraspeciesbox, etc
