:Hello my friend,

+
:Sadly things are more complex than that:

+
:{{m|Taxonavigation}} is not a Taxobox: Taxobox describe a complete classification with all the ranks and names wanted. Taxonavigation is only a help to navigate to the parent taxon categories. So Taxonavigation is supposed to contain no red link and to contain the names of the existing categories (not the names of synonyms. For example, Taxonavigation must contain [[:Category:Marsupialia|Marsupialia]] even if everyone uses [[:Category:Metatheria|Metatheria]])

+
:So clearly it it difficult to automatically create a {{m|Taxonavigation}} out of a classification.

+
:

+
:But I am thinking of another algorithm for a bot to create species {{m|Taxonavigation}}.

+
:As you might have seen, I am currently going through all the higher taxa categories to provide Taxonavigation + list of subtaxa + references (Like [http://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Category%3AAllactaga&diff=24783122&oldid=8801620 Allactaga].

+
:But I am lazy ;-) because I don't go to species categories (I do create a lot to move cat but empty).

+
:So my idea of a bot is to go through all genus, look at the subtaxa list. If they match a sub-category wich has no Taxonavigation => the bot would create the Taxonavigation in the sub-category.
