Hi,
I hope that I am hitting the correct list with this - my apologies if
not.
I am interested in finding all the pages within a wiki (actually
wikipedia) that make use of a particular template. The template in
question is the Taxobox (
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/
Taxobox#Taxoboxes).
I want to build a list of taxonomic treatments globally and it would
be great to be able to point at each of the pages in wikipedia that
are intended to be an accounts of species and match these up with
other treatments of the same species on other websites.
Unfortunately I can't find a way through the API of getting a list of
pages that use a particular template. This may be because I am
misunderstanding something or it may not be possible. Some pages
follow of convention of using the latin name of the species as the
title but others don't. Good pages tend to always have a Taxobox on
them though.
I'd be most grateful if some one could point me in the direction of
more resources on this topic.
Many thanks,
Roger
