Element cell templates
To simplify the rendering of various periodic tables, or parts of the periodic table, several templates are available. They take the same arguments but render the data differently. See examples to the right. All the templates allow an article name (parameter 8) different from the element name (parameter 2); this defaults to element name.

The templates are: element cell, element cell-named, element cell-large, element cell property, element cell AQ and element cell image. For some examples of use, see the periodic table (standard), periodic table (big), periodic table (detailed) and periodic table (large version). For further details and instructions for use, see Template:Element cell/doc.

Other templates are possible, displaying the data as one wishes. The neat things are the reader-friendly coding of the table cells, and the ability to copy an entire table code to another article and leave the data intact, just change the name of the template, and voila – there's another periodic table.
