How to use the template
[change source]This template is used for illustrating branching trees with the nodes and base labels being clickable links. They are especially suited to represent evolutionary trees.
{{clade |label1=Base |1=Node }}
produces
Base |
Node |
{{clade |1={{clade |label1=[[Subtree1]] |1=Leaf1 |label2=Subtree2 |2=Leaf2 }} }}
produces
| |||||||
{{clade| style=font-size:75%;line-height:75% |1={{clade |label1=Subtree1 |1=Leaf1 |label2=Subtree2 |2=Leaf2 }} }}
produces
| |||||||
Editing tip
[change source]An easy way of creating larger cladograms is to use the Newick format and proceed to edit it using a suitable text editor to produce the markup.
- Start with Newick format ((a,b),(c,d))
- Replace "(" with "{{clade|"
- Replace ")" with "}}"
- Edit to replace commas with pipes and numbers
- Edit clade labels if needed
{{clade |1={{clade |1=a |2=b }} |2={{clade |1=c |2=d }} }}
Using a box
[change source]You can nest the templates and use links around the text. You may use non-breaking spaces <pre> </pre> to obtain spaces or to have labels that have spaces.
The entire cladogram can be placed in a box so that text flows nicely around it. enclose within {{userboxtop| toptext=<pre> </pre>}} {{userboxbottom}}
