Module:Science redirect
This module is rated as beta, and is ready for widespread use. It is still new and should be used with some caution to ensure the results are as expected. |
This module uses Lua: |
This module is designed to serve as a back end for {{R from alternative scientific name}}
, {{R to scientific name}}
, {{R from scientific name}}
, {{R to monotypic taxon}}
and {{R from monotypic taxon}}
.
The template parameters and recognized categories are set in Module:Science redirect/conf.
Usage[edit source]
{{#invoke:Science redirect|R|template name excluding ’R’}}
For example, for {{R to scientific name}}, you would use {{#invoke:Science redirect|R|to scientific name}}
to produce:
Adding or modifying supported templates[edit source]
The template parameters and recognized categories are set in Module:Science redirect/conf. Instructions on how to add data are in the comments of that file.
For debugging, add parameter |debug=true
, e.g. {{#invoke:Science redirect|R|to scientific name|debug=true}}
produces:
{{Redirect template
| name = To scientific name of an organism
| from = a vernacular ("common") name
| main category = Redirects to scientific names
| printworthy = yes
| to = the scientific name of an organism (or group of organisms)
}}
