Module:TaxonItalics (talk • edit • hist • links • doc • subpages • sandbox • testcases)

මෙම Lua module පිටු 532,000 පමණ භාවිතා වන නිසා. To avoid major disruption and server load, any changes should be tested in the මෙම මොඩියුලයට අදාළ /sandbox හෝ /testcases උපපිටු. The tested changes can be added to this page in a single edit. එම වෙනස්කම් සිදුකිරීමට ප්‍රථම අදාළ සාකච්ඡා පිටුවේ ඒ පිළිබඳව සංවාදයක් ගොඩනැගීමට කාරුණික වන්න. Transclusion count updated automatically (ප්‍රලේඛනය වෙතට යොමුවන්න).

The module is primarily intended for use by the automated taxobox system. It supports the correct italicization of scientific names. Botanical (ICNafp) names may contain "connecting terms"; these must not be italicized. The hybrid symbol, ×, should also not be italicized. The module optionally wikilinks and abbreviates italicized names.

For non-virus taxa, italics are used at the rank of genus or below. The module does not decide whether a scientific name should be italicized. Use {{Is italic taxon}} for this purpose.

• {{#invoke:TaxonItalics|main|TAXON_NAME}} – italicizes a taxon name
• {{#invoke:TaxonItalics|main|TAXON_NAME|linked=yes}} – italicizes a taxon name, wikilinking the italicized output to the unchanged input
• {{#invoke:TaxonItalics|main|TAXON_NAME|abbreviated=yes}} – italicizes a taxon name, abbreviating all but the last part to the first letter
• {{#invoke:TaxonItalics|main|TAXON_NAME|dab=yes}} – italicizes a taxon name, treating any parenthesized part as a disambiguation term, and not italicizing it

The parameters can be combined. It can also be used via {{Taxon italics}}.

Connecting terms

• Pinus subg. Pinus → Pinus subg. Pinus
• P. subgenus Pinus → P. subg. Pinus
• P. subsect. Pinaster → P. subsect. Pinaster
• Acer tataricum subsp. ginnala → Acer tataricum subsp. ginnala
• Aster ericoides var. ericoides → Aster ericoides var. ericoides
• A. ericoides varietas ericoides → A. ericoides var. ericoides
• A. e. subvar. ericoides → A. e. subvar. ericoides

Botanical names may contain only one infraspecific epithet; a string like "Fragaria vesca subsp. vesca f. semperflorens" is a classification, not a name, and is not handled by the module.

Hybrid symbols

• Elaeagnus × submacrophylla → Elaeagnus × submacrophylla
• ×Beallara → ×Beallara
• × Beallara → × Beallara
• {{hybrid}}Beallara → ×Beallara

Using |linked=yes

• Populus sect. Aigeiros → Populus sect. Aigeiros
• Elaeagnus × submacrophylla → Elaeagnus × submacrophylla

Using |abbreviated=yes

• Populus sect. Aigeiros → P. sect. Aigeiros
• Acer tataricum subsp. ginnala → A. t. subsp. ginnala
• [also linked] × Sorbaronia fallax → × S. fallax
• [also linked] Elaeagnus × submacrophylla → E. × submacrophylla
• Elaeagnus ×submacrophylla → E. ×submacrophylla
• Elaeagnus {{hybrid}} submacrophylla → E. × submacrophylla

By default, a parenthesized part of a taxon name is assumed to be a subgenus name, and is italicized:

• Varanus (Hapturosaurus) → Varanus (Hapturosaurus)
• Caia (plant) → Caia (plant) – wrong

To treat a parenthesized part as a disambiguation term, use |dab=yes

• Caia (plant) → Caia (plant)
• (also linked) Caia (plant) → Caia (plant)
