Parameter Description
name The name of the particle (REQUIRED)
image The image for the infobox (use full wikicode)
caption A caption for the image
num_types The number of different types of the particle
composition Is the particle an Elementary particle, or a composite - and in the latter case, what of?
family Is the particle a Fermion or a Boson?
group Is the particle a Lepton, a Quark or a Gauge boson?
generation Does the particle belong to the first, second or third particle generation?
interaction What type of interactions does the particle take part in - Gravity, Weak interaction, Strong interaction or Electromagnetic interaction?
particle See antiparticle
antiparticle What's the particle's antiparticle? Use particle for refererring from an antiparticle page to a particle one. Wikiink if appropriate.
status The status of the particle - is it hypothetical, or discovered? Only note discovered if discovered field is not filled in.
