Another layout variant of the periodic table, put in a single table page. This time it is by the transposition of the groups/periods. Though nice for vertical screen scrolling, there is no scientific reason to present the PT this way. In other words: a layout play only. It even may be harmful (for understanding the PT) to change the pattern this way. It is a mental disturbance of the regular iconic form. Once the page is gone, the template can go too. -[[User:DePiep|DePiep]] ([[User talk:DePiep|talk]]) 15:23, 20 August 2013 (UTC) |
