Usage details

name defaults to article title if omitted.
All other parameters are optional and will be ignored if left blank
The deprecated template {{Infobox horse}} redirects here for backwards compatibility. Please use this template for new articles.
If you want to specify multiple entries for the altname parameter, these must be listed using {{unbulleted list}}; please don't use <br>.
The comments at the beginning and end don't affect the appearance of the table but please include them to help newcomers understand what's going on when they edit the page.
Try to be sure all infobox parameters are sourced in the article body text or cited in the infobox itself.

Infobox variables

name: Breed name as in article title.
image: The name of the image (leave off File:)
Use the best breed photo available for the infobox image; the ideal is a full body image of a well-conformed animal that has proper breed phenotype, facing left "into" the article. However, even a relatively poor quality image is acceptable if it adequately conveys the breed character.
image_caption: A caption that describes the image.
altname: Other names by which the breed is known by English speakers. Common nicknames can be included
country: Country or countries of origin, preferably at time of origin to avoid squabbling over current political boundaries.
color or colour: Only use if an important breed characteristic; main description should be in article body text
height: Use either the general height parameters OR the split male/female height parameters, not both. Only use male/female parameters when sexual dimorphism is sourced, either as a breed standard or by other reliable studies. Data may be provided as a range or as an average.
WP:LOCALCONSENSUS of WikiProject Equine is to generally use the {{hands}} conversion template or, where the nation of origin measures the breed in metric units, {{convert}} may be used as in this example: {{convert|148|to|152|cm|hand in|2}}. However, if there is no reliable source for a measurement in hands, omission of the template may occur on a case by case basis.
weight: Use either the general weight parameters OR the split male/female weight parameters, not both. Only use male/female parameters when sexual dimorphism is sourced, either as a breed standard or by other reliable studies. Data may be provided as a range or as an average.
status: Generally leave blank or omit unless there is a specific breed conservation status of concern (such as "endangered" or "critical")
extinct: Only use if breed is extinct, otherwise leave blank or omit
Breed standards:
Up to 6 different groups (organizations) and their standards can be specified; both variables (group1 and std1) for each group are required if any are used at all.

Microformats

This template emits a "species" (or "biota") microformat.

The microformat is created by the use of class="biota", and classes for individual taxonomic ranks, such as class="domain" in a span around {{{domain}}} (full list). Please do not change or remove those classes other than as part of development of the microformat. For background information, see microformats on Wikipedia and the microformat specification.
