Module:User:Benwing2/family tree/documentation

Family tree
This module allows for the display of English Wiktionary's hierarchical language and family ancestry data.


 * The first parameter is the language code.
 * Add 1 (alias 2) to show language families as separate (often redundant) nodes from their proto-languages. Ordinarily proto-languages are shown without the families that they are the parent of.
 * Add 1 (alias 3) to show all etymology languages (as children of a "parent" language or language family). Ordinarily they are not shown.
 * Add 1 to show families on a line below the proto-languages that belong to the family and are the common ancestor of its members, and 1 to do the reverse.
 * Add 1 to have the top level of the tree collapsed by default.

Trees
The template include limit prevents this page from showing all of Wiktionary's current language trees. Above is a sample language tree. When making changes to the Module:languages data, you may need to  this page to see an update.
