If anyone happens to read this, on the page for Hund's_Rules, it states that they can only be used to determine the ground states, not to order the excited states by energy. However, on the Term_Symbol page it seems to use Hund's Rules for exactly this. I don't know enough about the subject to know where the error lies, but there certainly appears to be an inconsistency at present. --Westm 06:58, 21 September 2006 (UTC)
