==Usage==
{{tl|Wikispecies}}

* Create link to wikispecies.

==Advanced usage==
::{|
|-
| {{tlx|Wikispecies|''pagename''}}||– puts link-box connecting title ''pagename''.
|-
| {{tlx|Wikispecies|''pagename''|''showname''}}||– puts link-box showing the title ''showname''.
|-
| {{tlx|Wikispecies|''pagename''|3=position=left}}||– floats link-box to the left side.

* ''pagename'' is the WikiSpecies article to link to. Defaults to '''PAGENAME''' (the Wikipedia article's title)
* ''showname'' is the text to display with the above link. Defaults to ''pagename''.
* The {{para|position}} parameter accepts one keyword, <code>left</code>, to float the box to the left instead of to the right.

[[File:Sister link template columns problem.jpg|thumb|If using a large, graphical template produces odd layout problems, like the excessive white space shown on the right of this screenshot, then switch to a different sister template.]]

{{xmark}} '''Do not place this template in a section all by itself.'''

{{xmark}} '''Do not place this template in a section containing columns without floating left.'''

This template should normally be placed at the ''top'' of the ==External links== section at the end of an article, if the article has a section for [[WP:EL|external links]]. If no such section exists, then please place it at the top of the last section in the article, or use {{tlx|Wikispecies-inline}}. See [[Wikipedia:Wikimedia sister projects]] for further recommendations about the best choice of template for various situations.

On [[WP:DAB|disambiguation pages]], this template should be listed above other text, but below any cleanup templates, images, infoboxes or navboxes.<!-- Per WP:ACCESS, cleanup templates, images, infoboxes, and navboxes are always first. -->
