Template:Nuclide templates/doc

This is a documentation subpage for Template:Nuclide templates.
It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page.

This section:

The Nuclide templates are to be used for displaying nuclide, isotope and element symbols, specifically in formulae. They can optionally link to the page for the specific nuclide, isotope or element. Here is a list of the various templates and some sample output for carbon-12, with and without links enabled:

Template		Without link	With link `\|link=yes`
{{Chem2}}^{(to improve)}	`{{Chem2\|[[Carbon\|C]]}}`	C	C
{{SimpleNuclide}}	`{{SimpleNuclide\|Carbon\|12\|link=yes}}`	¹² C	¹² C
{{Nuclide}}	`{{Nuclide\|Carbon\|12\|link=yes}}`	¹² ₆C	¹² ₆C
{{ComplexNuclide}}	`{{ComplexNuclide\|Carbon\|12}}`	¹² ₆C	¹² ₆C
{{ComplexNuclide}}	`{{ComplexNuclide\|helium\|2\|anti=yes\|charge=+}}`	² ₂He⁺	² ₂He⁺
