Usage
When copying all parameters in either the vertical or horizontal layouts, delete those which are not needed.
- All parameters, horizontal layout
{{FishBase |genus= |species= |id= |month= |year= }}
- All parameters, vertical layout
{{FishBase
|genus=
|species=
|id=
|month=
|year=
}}
The usage of the parameters:
|genus=the genus name (e.g., Cepola)|species=the species name (e.g., macrophthalma)|id=(optional) the id number given for the article; this links straight to the FishBase article|month=the month in which the article was accessed, which gives the version of FishBase|year=similarly, the year
