Template:Family tree

A template for generating family trees, e.g. the descendants of King Doric.

Usage[edit]

Input variables[edit]

parameters: Defaults to 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23,24,25,26,27,28,29,30,31,32,33,34,35,36,37,38,39,40. Specifying an alternative range of numbers, say 1-50, would produce an additional 10 columns. (A column in the case of this value represents how many parameters you need to feed into the template, so if you have a row with 24 unnamed parameters, set it to 24).

Parameters[edit]

1, 2, 3...39, 40: Unnamed parameters. (Limited to number set by "parameters" variable.)
