[WikiEN-l] Template/taxobox mess-up!

[Timwi]

Hi, people.

Please could you guys stop creating stuff like this?:

{{Taxobox_begin | color = pink | name = Domestic Dog}}<br />{{StatusSecure}}
{{Taxobox_image | image = [[Image:Norwegian Elkhound 600.jpg|249px|]]
| caption = A [[Norwegian Elkhound]], a breed of domestic dog.}}
{{Taxobox_begin_placement | color = pink}}
{{Taxobox_regnum_entry | taxon = [[Animal]]ia}}
	[... etc. ...]
{{Taxobox_end}}

This is not going to work in the long run. This is extremely prone to 
error and extremely hard to maintain.

Please do it the correct way; something like

{{Taxobox | color = pink | name = Domestic Dog |
  image = [[...]] | regnum = [[Animal]]ia | ... etc. ... }}

The former (current) mark-up gives me the creeps. It defies all the 
principles of modularity and document structure. As such, this kind of 
thing makes the introduction of a better/faster parser pretty damn hard.

Thanks,
Timwi
