To automatically link the content of every taxon name, use {{Linked species list}}. To bold-face the species (e.g. if they will never have their own pages, when listed in a genus article) use {{Bold species list}}. For example:
<noinclude>[[Category:Scientific name templates]]</noinclude> to the end of the template code, making sure it starts on the same line as the code's last character. This category is for templates that pertain in some way to (usually formatting of) scientific names of organisms.
Scientific name (binomial) of the species with no formatting; a entry point into the taxonomic hierarchy. Alternatively, |genus and |species can be used (and are required in some cases) Example Homo sapiens: String: optional: Genus: genus: Scientific name of the genus with no formatting; a entry point into the taxonomic hierarchy.
