Template:Anglicise rank/doc

Purpose

This template is one of a number of configuration templates used in the taxobox system, in this case in both manual and automated taxoboxes.

It translates a Latinized taxonomic rank into the English equivalent.

If the rank is one not listed in this template, then the taxonomy template containing the rank will be placed in Category:Taxonomy templates using unrecognized rank parameters.

Usage

Examples:

• {{Anglicise rank|classis}} → Class
• {{Anglicise rank|familia}} → Family
• {{Anglicise rank|sectio}} → Section
• {{Anglicise rank|zoosectio}} → Section
• {{Anglicise rank|cladus}} → Clade – unordered and informal ranks are italicized
• {{Anglicise rank|species_complex}} → Species complex – underscore and space are equivalent
• {{Anglicise rank|species complex}} → Species complex
• {{Anglicise rank|unranked_subordo}} → (unranked) – 'unranked ranks' are used in manual taxoboxes
