Module:Cite taxon/doc

This is a documentation subpage for Module:Cite taxon.
It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original module page.

This module was created to generate {{cite web}} references to the Catalog of Fishes database. The capabilities were extended to handle other fish-related references and the module renamed FishRef. Further extension to a more general Bioref system is the long-term goal.

The module provides a wrapper to the cite web system, which means the the references can also include general cite web parameters (e.g. |mode=cs1|2 or |quote=TEXT).

The module is used with {{Catalog of Fishes}}, which was designed to replace a series of templates that were originally written in the Wikipedia template language: {{Cof genus}}, {{Cof family}}, {{Cof species}}, {{Cof record}}.

Other templates using the module: {{FishBase/sandbox}}, {{BioRef}}, {{fossilworks/sandbox}}, User:Jts1882/sandbox/template/asm

Usage of module: {{#invoke:FishRef|cof}}, {{#invoke:FishRef|fishbase}}, {{#invoke:FishRef|fossilworks}}, etc.
