This Lua module is used on approximately 23,000 pages and changes may be widely noticed. Test changes in the module's /sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own module sandbox. Consider discussing changes on the talk page before implementing them.

Module:TaxonList (talk · edit · hist · links · doc · sandbox · testcases)

The purpose of this module is to provide support for a set of templates that produce a list of taxon names and their authorities, with the taxon names possibly italicized, wikilinked or emboldened. It allows these templates to have an indefinite number of arguments of the form taxonName1|authority1|taxonName2|authority2| ... |taxonNameN|authorityN.

Usage

The main function in this module must only be invoked from within a template that itself is transcluded from a page that supplies taxon name/authority pairs as arguments, since main picks up these arguments from the parent frame.

{{#invoke:TaxonList|main|PARAMETERS}}

where PARAMETERS may be

italic – set to yes to italicize each taxon name
linked – set to yes to wikilink each taxon name
bold – set to yes to embolden each taxon name (also turns off wikilinking)
incomplete – set to yes to output "(incomplete)" at the end of the list

Examples

{{Taxon list}} contains {{#invoke:TaxonList|main|incomplete={{{incomplete|no}}}}}. Hence:
{{Taxon list |Asparagales|Bromhead |Iridales|Dumortier}} →

Asparagales Bromhead 
Iridales Dumortier

{{Linked  species list}} contains {{#invoke:TaxonList|main|linked=yes|italic=yes|incomplete={{{incomplete|no}}}}}. Hence:
{{Linked species list |Poecilotheria fasciata|(Latreille, 1804) |Poecilotheria ornata|Pocock, 1899 |Poecilotheria rajaei|Nanayakkara et al., 2012 |incomplete=yes}} →

Poecilotheria fasciata (Latreille, 1804) 
Poecilotheria ornata Pocock, 1899 
Poecilotheria rajaei Nanayakkara et al., 2012 
(incomplete list)
