The Taxobox templates can be implemented at wikis.evergreen.edu to create an standardized way of adding biological classification data identical to what's done at wikipedia.org.

Examples of Taxobox

• http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geoduck
• Using Taxobox with plants.

Taxobox syntax

{{Taxobox
| image = GooeyduckSeafood.jpg
| image_caption =  Four live geoducks in a seafood tank
| regnum = [[Animal]]ia
| phylum = [[Mollusca]]
| classis = [[Bivalvia]]
| ordo = [[Myoida]]
| familia = [[Hiatellidae]]
| genus = ''[[Panopea (mollusc)|Panopea]]''
| species = '''''P. generosa'''''
| binomial = ''Panopea generosa''
| binomial_authority = Gould, 1850
}}
