Category:Taxonbars without secondary Wikidata taxon IDs

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is a maintenance tracking category for {{Taxonbar}} pages without any secondary Wikidata taxonomic identifiers (for example, on automatically added basionyms, automatically added original combinations, or additional |from2=, |from3=, etc. parameters). Editors are encouraged to add valid IDs to existing databases; for example, those described in Template:Taxonbar/doc#Taxon identifiers and d:Wikidata:WikiProject Taxonomy#Databases, if possible. This can be done in two ways.

  1. The preferred way is to update the Wikidata entity. After navigating to the appropriate Wikidata QID page, scroll down to the bottom, click "add statement", look for the appropriate database, and add the ID in the other field provided.
  2. If you are unfamiliar with Wikidata, you may manually specify an ID directly in the {{Taxonbar}} template by appending the corresponding number to the end of the parameter name. For example, use |iucn2= for |from2='s QID, and |iucn3= for |from3='s QID. This will also place the page into Category:Taxonbars with manual taxon IDs (2). More detail is provided at Template:Taxonbar/doc.

It may also be the case that the {{Taxonbar}} was incorrectly added to a page not dedicated to a specific taxon, i.e. Dung beetle, in which case it should be removed. See Category:Taxonbars on possible non-taxon pages (401) for more information.

Pages in this category should only be added by Module:Taxonbar.
