Symbols for various particles
Hi Tim, I noticed you made a few good changes to the page. From your homepage I gather you know a fair amount more about particle physics than I do. One of my pet projects has been to create templates that facilitate displaying symbols for particles in wikipedia pages. See SubatomicParticle and SubatomicParticle/list for an example of what I mean. Though I have a keen interest in physics, I have no formal education in this area and lack required knowledge to gather certain information. For instance, the SymbolForSubatomicParticle page was created by me based on information from wikipedia pages. However, I have no way to verify the accuracy of the symbols in this template. Because of this and because it is wikipedia's standard to require references for all information, I was hoping you could either verify the accuracy of the templates, help me find somebody else that can do this or help me find references and help me understand what I am looking at so I can verify it myself. Also, I would like to encourage you to use these templates to create symbols for elements, because I hope it'll make it easier to do so, and so we can have a consitant look and feel across wikipedia pages about physics and to make it easier to make adjustmenting a symbol across all pages easier, should that be required.
