Periodic table templates and files
  • {{Periodic table navbox}} {{Sidebar periodic table}}
Column counts are columns only that contain elements. "Compact cells" denote cells with element symbol only, have navbox style and the table fits basic wiki page width (1024×768). "Detailed cells" have more data, and may cause page width excess (scroll bar added). "Extended" periodic tables are about theoretical periods 8 and higher (element 119 and higher).
