Taxobox Templates for Biological Classification

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.
