	Ya know, there's no reason to make this version specific. As a row (or header), it can be used anywhere. Likewise, no reason to make more work and spell it all out - "template:MatlMetal" would have worked too, or whatever. Meh, just a matter of style - and future missprellings. ; ) Readya later, --[[User:Albedo\|Albedo]] 18:51, 6 April 2010 (UTC)		Ya know, there's no reason to make this version specific.

		+	:The original wasn't misspelled -- "materiel" is a word meaning "military equipment"; it was a subtle pun on how close the words "material" and "materiel" are, while still being accurate. The original intent was for a table containing metals that could be used to forge materiel (i.e., weapons and armor), listing properties that affect weapon and armor quality. That makes it necessarily version-specific, because the 40d and DF2010 parameters are different. I suppose numbered parameters could be used instead of named parameters, but MediaWiki table syntax is awful enough without the added burden of associating number with property.
