Description
[change source]This metadata template links Wikipedia articles to various biological and taxonomic databases. Taxonbar displays these links as short strings, indicating the unique identifier each database has assigned the taxon for catalog purposes.
Taxonomic identifiers of each taxon are stored and retrieved from each taxon's corresponding Wikidata entry but can be overridden in individual articles with locally entered data. Adding the data to Wikidata is preferable.
This project is based on the work of {{Authority Control}} and Wikidata:Wikidata:WikiProject Taxonomy. If you are a template editor or Wikipedia administrator, you may contribute at Module:Taxonbar. Please discuss ideas/thoughts for improvement or use on Template:Taxonbar/talk.
Position
[change source]Please place Taxonbar correctly. As a metadata template, Taxonbar should be placed:
- Below all references, footnotes, and other sites.
- Below all navigation templates—except Authority control
- Above the Authority control template.
- Above the [[Category:]] codes in the editor.
Usage
[change source]Add Taxonbar to an article:
- In Source editing mode, insert
{{Taxonbar|from=}}below all other navigation templates except Authority control — it is preferable to add thefrom = QIDparameter even if just a single Wikidata item points to the article. - Click "Show preview" to check placement, and to see which taxon identifiers are automatically pulled from Wikidata.
- If you have more identifiers to add, consider adding them to the article's Wikidata item, so that all versions of Wikipedia automatically benefit. Be careful not to edit the structure or names of Wikidata taxa until you have become familiar with Wikidata:WikiProject Taxonomy and Wikidata:WikiProject Taxonomy/Tutorial.
Basic code:
[change source]{{Taxonbar|from=}}

Hide specific identifier (optional)
[change source]Individual identifiers listed in the table above can be removed(hidden) from the bar by setting the corresponding parameter to no. This is useful when trying to reduce the number of links within Taxonbar. Spaces are optional. There is no sense in removing too many identifiers, for example: removing plant or fungi identifiers from an animal taxon would have no effect as these parameters will not show up on an animal taxon in the first place. It is best to preview {{Taxonbar}} on the page and decide what entries provide little relevant data. Plant species will have the most entries and are most likely in need of hiding some entries if the goal is to keep the bar on one line.
Example: To remove FOC, IPNI, and AFPD, the code would look like:
{{taxonbar | foc = no | ipni = no| apdb = no }}
On Coffea arabica, the result is:
Taxon identifiers not in Wikidata
[change source]Some taxon identifiers not at present in Wikidata can be added via extra parameters, however adding the data to Wikidata is preferable.
Example:
{{taxonbar | emonocot = 280381}}
On Lilium, the result is:
where the taxon identifier in the World Checklist of Selected Plant Families has been added to those picked up from Wikidata.

Multiple Wikidata entries
[change source]Some taxons will exist under multiple names on Wikidata. To add these additional names, you can use the |from2=, |from3=, etc. parameters to add their Wikidata IDs (|from=/|from1= will be automatically determined by the article title should normally be omitted, but can be specified manually if needed).
If there is more that one row, the taxon name from Wikidata will be shown in the leftmost column — to overwrite this, use the |for=/|for1=, |for2=, |for3=, etc. parameters. You can add taxon identifiers not present in Wikidata by appending the appropriate number to the end of the parameter name — for example, to add emonocot to the second row, use |emonocot2=.
For example, {{Taxonbar|from2=Q138193}}, when placed on the page Aloiampelos ciliaris produces:
