Disputatio Formulae:Taxobox
E Vicipaedia
Should it be nomen binominale? I can't grasp the grammar of nomen binomine. Andrew Dalby 13:39, 26 Februarii 2007 (UTC)
- Neuter of binominis [1]... of the later formation binominalis I had not heard. However Google Books gives neither nomen binominale nor nomen binomine — what the actual technical term is (surely there must be one) I don't know. —Mucius Tever 23:48, 26 Februarii 2007 (UTC)
- Oh, yes, I get it. Thanks for the explanation. I see the word was a favourite of Ovid and perhaps invented by him -- excellent pedigree! Certainly let's stick with Nomen binomine unless we eventually hear of a more-used term. Andrew Dalby 10:27, 27 Februarii 2007 (UTC)
[recensere] Another question
Is there a preference between using this formula and using the set beginning {{Taxobox begin}}? The effect appears very similar. AndrewDalby 21:05, 29 Maii 2007 (UTC)
- "Taxobox begin" is older—from a time when templates were less powerful. This formula works on a lot more magic and is presumably more up-to-date. —Mucius Tever 21:45, 29 Maii 2007 (UTC)
