Module:Biota infobox
MyWikiBiz, Author Your Legacy — Friday November 15, 2024
Jump to navigationJump to searchThis 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.
