Template:Infobox particle accelerator/doc

The {{Infobox particle accelerator}} template formats a right-side infobox to display information about particle accelerators. This template is intended to be used on the pages of specific machines, (for example Large Hadron Collider), not general types of machines (for example, Cyclotron).

Usage

Copy paste the unpopulated template below. It will display the infobox on the right. Fields which are not applicable to the accelerator in question (for example, circumference for a linear accelerator) may be deleted. Fields which are relevant but for which the information is not available should be left in place for future editors.
