Template talk:Species infobox

This should be only used on Major Species in more than one game, or something we don't want articles to be over crowed with templates like say if we added it to the Gloomba article. Or maybe not to be used on Sub Species.
 * Also I'll start adding these tomorrow.


 * This template will get way too big for a lot of major species. Just think of all the notable Goombas, all their sub-species, and all their affiliations throughout the years.  That's why we have templates and lists at the bottom of the articles. -- Son of Suns

"Orgin"
The variable "species-orgin" and the description "Species Orgin" (missing an i in or i gin) has been used on all species pages for almost a year and nobody noticed? I don't think it's a good idea to edit all sub-species pages to correct that, maybe we should keep the variable name and just change the description to origin? - 12:54, 4 September 2009 (EDT)

Expandable
I'm not good with templates. Is there a way to allow the sub-species and notable members sections to become collapsable?
 * Never mind, I found out. It's with |expand=expandable

Derived and Parent species
I'm a bit curious if this refers to a design standpoint, a biological standpoint, or a mixture thereof. If it's a design standpoint, would it actually make Rocky Wrench the "parent species" to Monty Mole? Should Koopa be listed as a derived species of Shellcreeper? The Smash Wii U/3DS stated they're the "ancestors," after all... Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 22:33, 8 March 2018 (EST)
 * I have done the thing with the Koopa and Shellcreeper, since it's outright stated in a game, but I'm still curious over the exact rules regarding the meaning of this. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 01:36, 11 March 2018 (EST)
