title="" style="text-align:center; color:black; background:white; border:none; ;"|
The template produces a content in formatted CSS style for a single element cell (to be used in a periodic table). It is part of a series.
All parameters are optional.
{{element cell
| 1= atomic number Z
| 2= element name
| link= wikipedia page (creates a wikilink like [[Mercury (element)|mercury]]. Formerly parameter 8=)
| 3= symbol
| 4= (not used)
| 5= state of matter (sets font color)
| 6= metal–nonmetal category name (sets background color)
| bg= background color (overrides 6; can look like bg=#aabbcc. Formerly parameter 9=
| 7= occurrence (sets cell border style)
| border= sets border style, (overrides 7. Like: border=3px solid red)
| style= adds or overrides style settings (do not add the "" quotes)
| title= (mousehover text, overrides title composed from 2: 6; 5; 7)
| legend= (overrides legend text that was composed from 6; 5; 7)
}}

Example Hg, in wikitable:
{|
|-
| {{element cell|80|mercury|Hg||Liquid|Transition metals|Primordial|link=mercury (element)}}
|}
- Top row
Parameter 1, usually the atomic number, is put in the top row unlinked. If this parameter is present, a <br/> is added. The font color is set by parameter 5, usually the state of matter key.
- Asterisk (*)
To add a plain asterisk, as is done to mark lanthanides and actinides, add them in
tags in parameter #1 like this:
| {{element cell|<nowiki>*</nowiki>|Lanthanides}}
- Page link
The cell links to parameter 2, usually the element name. If the page name is not the element name, as with
, the correct pagename can be set through
.
- Label
The link is
labeled with parameter 3 (usually the symbol):
.
If there is no link provided (no parameter 2, no link=), parameter 3 will show as unlinked text.
- Background
The background color is set by parameter 6, usually the category name. It can be set by parameter bg:
. Parameter bg is used for just a color, with no legend meaning (no text in the title).
- Frame (cell border)
The frame style is set via parameter 7, usually the occurrence. It can be overridden by using
. This sets the border (frame), but does not have a legend meaning (no text in the title).
- Style
All style can be set (and overridden) by using the style parameter:
. Do not add quotes ("").
- Title
The title (mousehover text) is created from params 1: 6; 7; 5. (name: category; occurrence; state of matter).
The emercury example will give:
Mercury: transition metals; primordeal; liquid
When parameters
or
are used, their setting is not added to the title (they are meaningless).
The title can be set (overridden) to any text, including a blank, by using
- Legend
The legend is composed from parameters 6, 5 and 7. It can be overridden by using
. (This can be useful in combination with setting
).
- Example using parameters
{|
|-
| {{element cell|one|two|three|bg=yellow|border=3px solid red|link=Main page|title=Some example}}
|}
Pages that could have issues with this template are listed in Category:Element pages that need attention for the legend for maintenance. January 2012 के अनुसार [update].
