Template talk:Physics particle
Appearance
Forced bold?
I applaud the idea of having standardized templates for all subatomic particles, but it looks like the current version of {{PhysicsParticle}} always displays the particle's symbol in a bold font, which is distracting in most contexts. In particular, since this template is used in {{SubatomicParticle}}, we get particle names like e−
(electron) or γ (photon), which is rather uncommon in my experience. Perhaps the default should be non-bold, but with an optional parameter for requesting bold/italic symbols? Hqb (talk) 13:29, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
