== Original instructions copied from en:wiki ==
Illustrates the fossil range of a taxon. Intended for use in {{tn|taxobox}}es.
 
Line 22 ⟶ 24:
You can also specify "earliest" and "latest" to add a "ghost" bar beyond the accepted fossil range. You can use these parameters for whatever you like; they may be useful in the case of living fossils such as the [[coelocanth]], where you may wish to specify <code>latest=0</code> to make the bar faintly extend to the present; they may also be useful where "earliest" fossils are not universally accepted - for instance, the [[octocorals]] only have a good fossil record from the Tertiary, but there are claims of Cambrian representatives. In this case, you may wish to specify <code>earliest=middle Cambrian</code>.

[Added 2019: The best way is to specify a date range in millions of years (parameters 1 and 2, unlabelled) followed by the first and last geological periods/epochs (third parameter, must be labelled r=). What follows the r= is treated as text. It can include a footnote. See first three examples.]
 
The best way to use this formula is to specify a date range in millions of years and also the first and last geological periods/epochs. If this is done, all the information will appear clearly both in text form and in the timeline diagram. The Latin or English formula name will work:
===Examples:===▼
 
<pre>{{FossilScala range|68|65|}}fossilis</pre>▼
<pre>{{Fossil range|68|65|}}</pre>▼
 
Then add the date range. For a living taxon, the second number will be 0:
 
<pre>{{Scala fossilis|299|201</pre>
<pre>{{Scala fossilis|20|0</pre>
 
The formula can be closed here. If it is, the screen rendering will show the date range on the timeline and in text form:
 
<pre>{{Scala fossilis|299|201}}</pre>
 
But it is better also to add the geological periods (the first and last, or the only one). The parameter including this information must be labelled "|r=". Our equivalent of the conventional term "recent" is "[[Recens]]", which is currently redirected to [[Holocaenum]]. Thus:
 
<pre>{{Scala fossilis|299|201|r=[[Permium]] > [[Triassicum]]}}</pre>
<pre>{{Scala fossilis|20|0|r=[[Miocaenum]] > [[Recens]]}}</pre>
 
What follows the r= is treated as text, and it can include a footnote. Here are examples of the formula as rendered:
 
▲===Examples: 1-3===
 
<pre>{{Scala fossilis|299|201|r=[[Permium]] > [[Triassicum]]}}</pre>
Line 36 ⟶ 59:
 
<references />
 
<pre>{{Fossil range|68|65|earliest=Aevum Permianum|latest=0|PS= vide textum}}</pre>
{{Fossil range|68|65|earliest=Aevum Permianum|latest=0|PS= vide textum}}
 
<pre>{{Fossil range|68|65.5|Late Cretaceous}}</pre>
{{Fossil range|68|65.5|Late Cretaceous}}
 
▲<pre>{{Fossil range|68|65|}}</pre>
▲{{Fossil range|68|65|}}
 
If you receive an error when specifying a period name, check you've spelt it right; if so, it probably isn't yet incorporated into the templates {{tl|next period}} and {{tl|period start}}. This is really easy to do, so feel free to add the period yourself to make future editors' lives easier!
 
;Note: The template has not been fully tested on all browsers. Please note any problems on the talk page as soon as possible!

*If you encounter problems using this template, try using the English word instead of the Latin (or vice versa) because many of the more insignificant names have not been translated yet.
