Difference between revisions of "Template:Infobox:AnimalBase"

{{Infobox:AnimalBase}} is a meta-template, ie a template for creating templates. This template is intended to be a basic template for animal templates of different languages.

With this template you can describe, in a single table, all the characteristics of any animal. Moreover, one can define an image with description, and an alternative title (for templates in languages other than English).

Usage

Put the following code in the template being designed. Complete the parameters you want, delete the unused.

Important note: If you want to create a animal template in your language, do not use this template, this is a base template. Instead, copy the final template of another language and translate into your language. See "Examples of final templates in different languages" section for a list of currently created templates that you can translate.

Parameters

• widths0 - Width of the table (in pixels). The default is "300". I recommend not to change this parameter.

• title - Title of the table. If not specified a title, the table is headed with the name of the article. For example, the name of this article is "Infobox:AnimalBase".

• image - Image to be displayed. It is important to describe both the name and the file extension. Note that some images will make the table look extremely long. Avoid this kind of images, or use the resize parameter to resize the image, if posible.

• resize - This parameter can be used to resize the image. Values are expressed in pixels. Options:
  • Change width: resize = 100
  • Change width and height: resize = 100x50
  • Original size: resize = 0

Even if width and height are specified the image will keep its original aspect ratio: either the width or the height will be equal to the specified maximum, whichever allows the other to be <= the maximum.
