Usage
editCreates the a row in a wikitable for use in animal genera lists. The table header and footer can be generated with {{Animal genera table}} and {{Animal genera table/end}}.
Fields
edit- Required
- name
- image
- authority-name
- authority-year
- range
- size (required unless "no-ecology" is set)
- habitat (required unless "no-ecology" is set)
- diet (required unless "no-ecology" or "no-diet" is set; alias: hunting)
- Optional
- common-name (sets an English term for the genus below the latin name)
- image-size (sets a width for the image e.g. "160px" to prevent tall images from stretching the table row; defaults to 180px if not set)
- image-alt (optional but recommended, sets alt-text for the image)
- authority-not-original (adds parenthesis around the author citation; see Author citation (zoology))
- species (adds species information below the scientific name; recommended to be a collapsible list if there are eight or more species)
- range-size (sets a width for the range map image e.g. "160px" to prevent tall images from stretching the table row; defaults to 180px if not set)
- range-alt (optional but recommended, sets a caption (as alt-text) for the range map image)
- no-diet (removes the "Diet" section of the "Size and ecology" column)
- no-ecology (removes the "Size and ecology" column)
- single-species (changes pluralization in "Size and ecology" column)
- single-habitat (changes pluralization of "Habitats:" to "Habitat:")

no-ecology
editWith |no-ecology=yes to remove the "Size and ecology" column; this is not standard, but may be useful for articles where all of the species have very similar ecology to remove repetition. Consider also setting "narrow-percent" in the header if the resulting table has too much empty space. A table row is included in this example to demonstrate the result; note that both the header template and each row have to have "no-ecology" set or else the table will be malformed.
