Template:Props/doc

Template Usage

• {{Props}} is automatically included on /Properties pages.

On other pages, use {{Props}} to display a table of all properties listed in (((Material)))/Properties/List.

So for instance...

The properties that are listed at Iron/Properties/List are:

Atomic symbol
Atomic number
Atomic mass
etc..

so that when we say:

{{Props|Material=Iron}}

we get:

Properties of Iron
Atomic_symbol:	Fe
Atomic number:	26
Atomic mass:	55.845(2)
Standard phase:	Solid
Elemental Class:	Transition metal
Electronegativity:	1.83
Melting point:	1,538 °C
Boiling point:	2,861 °C
Note: Please see template {{Props}} for instructions on adding new properties of Iron to this table.

Notice that the items on the list that do not have corresponding pages do not appear in the table. For a property to appear in the table, it must be both included on the list and have a corresponding subpage to get the data from. Since Iron/Atomic number exists, it returns the value that is displayed in the table. Iron/Molecular formula does not, and so it does not appear.

There seems to be a bug in the template expansion logic for CZ. The problem has been fixed with a temporary workaround. Please bear with the growing pains while we try and resolve the issue...

Also: There is a "sentinel" template at Lithium/Isotopes which implements the desired logic for Props. It has been left "broken" (it doesn't work but it should) intentionally as an indicator. Thank you for your patience.
