Welcome to the taxobox task force of WikiProject Tree of Life.
The taxobox task force is responsible for all aspects relating to taxoboxes, from maintenance to assistance to patrolling to coding.
The taxobox task force is not responsible for inventing new taxonomic classifications, though revisions per research are usually encouraged, provided there is reasonable scientific consensus prior to revising Wikipedia's taxonomies.

Where possible, replace manual taxoboxes with automatic taxoboxes as per consensus at WP:TOL. If doing so will alter in any way the manner in which the taxonomy is displayed, make sure the edit is uncontroversial before proceeding.
In zoology, use "unranked" instead of "clade". For botany, the upper-level taxa should all be listed as "clade" instead of "unranked" and should use the common name rather than the Latin name.
All articles that are within the scope of this project should be tagged with the project banners of WikiProject Tree of Life or one of its daughter projects.
The primary templates associated with this task force are:
Additionally, there are tens of other templates referenced by the templates listed above (such as {{ Biota infobox}}) which may need debugging or revisions as further developments may occur. The relational database that the automatic taxobox family uses is made up of thousands of templates, each representing an individual taxon.
The following preferred taxonomies have been voiced by various WikiProjects; please use them when there is a question as to which taxonomy is preferred:
When in doubt, please consult the relevant WikiProject on their talk page.
