This is a documentation subpage for Template:Isotopes/decay-mode/property. It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page.

• |normal-code=, |raw-code=

|property=verify-code, merge-synonyms, test-unchecked-code: for internal use only (by {{decay modes/dm-to-normalised-code}})

• |type=dm [default], hl, na

• todo: |errormsg=, categorise

test: |test-unchecked-code=yes will skip code check: all codes are returned. This allows to check the normalisation result. function |peroperty=test-unchecked-code will be done instead of |propserty=verify-code).

Decay mode normalised codes are not visible in mainspace. Also, they have no meaning or use outside of {{Decay modes/dm-property}}.

|code-in, type, errormsg=

returns:

(1) normalised code (alphanumeric only),

(2) merge-synonym (b+b+ → 2b+),

(3) <blank> when code is not recognised.

The template normalises a decay code like β⁺ into a basic, unambiguous code. That normal code is used to handle the decay mode formatting & properies.

For example, β⁺ → code [[:Template:Decay modes/dm-to-normalised-code]]

In the example:

b+ → [[:Template:Decay modes/dm-to-normalised-code]]

Data retrieved for b+:

Using basic keyboard characters

The code is in basic keyboard characters. This allows the editor to enter a decay name by plain text characters.

a b e g p n + - 2 3 A-Z a-z 0-9 (SF CD IT Ne Mg Si, 24Ne, stable, syn, ...)

dm code normalisation:

No case conversion uc/lc ("SF" nand "β" recognised, but "sf" and "Β" are not recognised)
Decode entitity names (β → β)
Remove '%slink$' ('_link' suffix)
Remove all whitespace
Remove <sup> tags (keep content, like '+', '-')
Replace – (ndash) − (minus) with - (keyboard hyphen)
Replace α with "a", β → "b", ε → "epsi", γ → "g" 
The whole string is considered

The whole string is considered. So, not recognised is input:

[[alpha|α]] N,

α (? not sure) N,

<span style="background: yellow;">α</span> N

Letter epsilon is coded "epsi". Also, bare letter "e" stands for "ε". Latin letter "e" only occurns in "e⁺".

Resulting code is in (US) keyboard characters.

The very same code can be enterd by its keyboard letters:

Also recognised: bare alpha, beta, gamma, epsilon

Alternative codes are normalised, and recognised

Note:

Bare Latin letter "e" is not a code, so bare letter "e" code stands for "ε"

Inversely, "e⁻" only exists with Latin "e", so "e-" is unambiguous.

U+2013 – EN DASH (&ndash;)

U+2212 − MINUS SIGN (&minus;)

U+002D - HYPHEN-MINUS

U+00AD SOFT HYPHEN (&shy;) (not handled)

• Used in: {{Decay modes}}, {{Infobox element isotopes}} [projected for Feb2023]

Codes for hl and na are handled by code too:

"stable", "observationally stable", "synthetic" and "trace".

Other values, such as number values like "{{val|1.23|e=7|ul=y}}" (for 1.23×10⁷ y), are not recognised. In Infobox uses, such values can be passed through and shown unedited.

|type=hl, na

Decode entitity names (β → β)
Conversion uc to lc ("Stable" → "stable" code)
Remove '%slink$' ('_link' suffix)
Search for code words: "obs", "stable", "syn", "trace"
The rest of the input string is discarded (so: any of these texts in the input will fire as recognised code)

By using these |type=hl, na options, it is prevented that some |dm= input would find "stable" as recognised code (it is not, for dm).
