Table of nuclides
Delete: Information already duplicated elsewhere, notably in isotope pages EGGS 02:51, 3 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep - Duplicated or not, it's useful to have in one central place. Physics references often have tables like this.  Several major websites as well - T-2 Nuclear Information Service at LANL Nuclear Data Center of the Japan Atomic Energy Research Institute (JAERI).  Georgewilliamherbert 03:21, 3 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep per above. Royboycrashfan 04:05, 3 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per my reasons at Talk:Table of nuclides. Redirect to synonym chart of nuclides. Other editors cannot build upon unsourced data, adding references would amount to a complete rewrite from scratch. Also, the usefulness as a big list seems questionable since there is already a split request. Adding more of decay data would easily result in a growth beyond several Megabytes.

 * Curious, why would adding references amount to a complete rewrite from scratch? I could add T2 and JAERI to the bottom in a minute if I weren't otherwise occupied...  Georgewilliamherbert 23:38, 3 February 2006 (UTC)
 * We can't just dab on some links there without knowing they were the source of the data. Going back to verify against a specific reference, one just as well could create the page anew regardless of the existing content. Femto 15:55, 4 February 2006 (UTC)


 * Delete. Not useful in present form.  It is an awkward cross between Table of chemical elements (highly useful) and Isotopes of hydrogen-type pages (also highly useful).--ragesoss 20:49, 3 February 2006 (UTC)
