Module:Birdcraft plate

This template simplifies adding plates to Birdcraft in a consistent way. It supports all three major plate layouts found in the work: normal single image on a page, two images side by side, and two images arranged vertically; plus a few divergent variants.

Usage

{{birdcraft plate
|type = double
|plate = 16
|img1 = Birdcraft (1903), plate 16-1.jpg
|name1 = Black and White Warbler
|length1 = 5
|img2 = Birdcraft (1903), plate 16-2.jpg
|name2 = Myrtle Warbler
|length2 = 5.50
}}

Parameter	Value	Description
type	single / double / tall	`single` produces a layout suitable for a single bird image filling the page; `double` produces two images side by side; and `tall` produces two images arranged vertically. If either `double` or `tall` are specified then providing values for both sets of the corresponding parameters is mandatory.
gendered	anything	If `gendered` is given with any value (e.g. "true"), a line specifying gendered labels for the plate ("1. Male / 2. Female") is output.
plate	integer	The plate number. Displayed in the top left of the plate page. Mandatory.
img1 / img2	image file name	The file name of the corresponding image on Commons, without the `File:` prefix. If the type is `single` then only `img1` should be specified.
name1 / name2	string	The name of the corresponding bird, without the number prefix and trailing full stop. If the type is `single` then only `name1` should be specified. The template will automatically prefix `name1` with "1." and `name2` with "2.", and put a full stop (".") at the end, so the parameter should contain only the species name.
length1 / length2	string	The length given for the corresponding bird, without the "Length, " prefix and trailing "inches.". If the type is `single` then only `length1` should be specified. The template will automatically prefix the parameters with "Length, " and suffix with "inches.", so the parameter should contain only the length itself (e.g. "5.50–6").
customlength	string	If the plate does not follow the rigid "Length, xx–yy inches." format of most plates, then this parameter can be used to override. If this parameter is present, only the text given in the parameter is output (it overrides the normal length parameters). Consequently, it should contain the full text of the length specification on the relevant plate. This parameter is only valid if the type parameter is `single`.
subcaption	string	On Plate 53 the name of the bird has a parenthetical on a separate line and formatted differently. This parameter exists to be able to specify that. This parameter is only valid if the type parameter is `single`.
