Why not templates in this direction? -- JWB ( talk) 00:31, 17 March 2008 (UTC)

(
talk) 10:41, 6 April 2008 (UTC)I'd like to adjust the naming scheme to make it more compliant with other wiki pages and naming schemes. Here's what I'd like to suggest:
Current name | New name suggestion |
---|---|
Category:Nuclide templates | Template:Nuclide/doc (partial move) |
User:SkyLined/List of nuclei | Template:Nuclide/list |
Template:Element | Template:Nuclide/element |
Template:SimpleNuclide | Template:Nuclide/simple |
Template:Nuclide | Template:Nuclide |
Template:ComplexNuclide | Template:Nuclide/complex |
Template:SymbolForElement | Template:Nuclide/EtoS |
Template:ProtonsForElement | Template:Nuclide/EtoP |
Template:NeutronsForElement | Template:Nuclide/EToN |
Template:LinkForElement | Template:Nuclide/EtoL |
Template:SymbolForProtons | Template:Nuclide/PtoS |
Template:ElementForProtons | Template:Nuclide/PtoE |

Sometimes I find it awkward to read particles when sub- and superscripts are the same size as the symbol, especially in running text or if several particles are mentioned closely together.
Can we reduce the font size of sub- and superscripts in {{ SimpleNuclide}}, {{ Nuclide}}, {{ ComplexNuclide}}, and {{ PhysicsParticle}}, or have an option for smaller font size? -- Eddi ( Talk) 01:26, 1 July 2008 (UTC)

contribs 22:35, 7 July 2008 (UTC)See attached screenshot. I added some plain text for reference and I see that there's a difference, although very slight. The <sup> and <sub> tags reduce the font size a bit, and {{ PhysicsParticle}} reduces it a bit more. I use Firefox 3.0 on Linux kernel 2.6.24.17. You may be right that my settings disturb things, because my screen has rather small pixels and I have set the browser's default font size to 20. But it's no big deal, I can read the particles all right. -- Eddi ( Talk) 13:07, 28 August 2008 (UTC)

I didn't withdraw my request, if that would be an obstacle to improving things. I just meant I was able to read things, with some difficulty. In principle your screenshot is the same as mine. And the two of us using different browsers shouldn't be a factor. The problem isn't the size of pixels but the difference in size between normal text and special text. If the template doesn't distinguish more between normal text and special text, I think it should be changed. Eddi ( Talk) 02:05, 3 April 2010 (UTC)
I'm following (or at least I think I am) what's being done in the examples and I can't seem to get it right.
I want 1H, so I'm writing {{
Nuclide|hydrogen|1}}
, however that yieds 1
1H
(1H). What am I doing wrong here?

contribs 15:17, 25 February 2009 (UTC)I would like to write a nuclear equation with an ambiguous nuclide X. Does anyone know how this can be done? It doesn't look like it's one of the nuclides available. ScienceApologist ( talk) 15:25, 23 June 2009 (UTC)
I removed {{Template category |description=Templates for displaying nuclide and element symbols }} from the page because it gets included verbatim into the templates in this category and templates should not get added to the "
Wikipedia template categories" category. I more permanent solution is to create a "/doc" sub page with the documentation, put the "template category" stuff back in the category, and include the "/doc" page in the templates, rather than the cateogry page itself. — SkyLined ( talk) 10:41, 10 December 2009 (UTC)
I have been asked how to copy these templates to other language versions of Wikipedia. I'm not entirely sure, as I've never done this myself, but I can make a guess, which I'll write down below. Please reply if you have anything to add or comment.
