Making wiki periodic materials table launch-page. What's missing? Check our list. Tell us!

I have implemented this before on my character page for Luca (its a link to a bigger image), and on my user page with Danny's face portrait (which is a different image).

See how I've done it, and change the links.
 
Thanks. Gonna make a template of periodic tables in Excel and write it out to wiki for ease of doing.

I honestly don't know half the materials in the SARP (hence why I've made so many) so for me personally its a good learning exercise and we get to plug the gap in our players' knowledgebase.

Splendid idea! I've always wondered what materials are in the setting.

Don't forget Yarvex! You can make panties out of them!
 
Alright, here's my base materials list:

  • Zesuaium
  • Xiulurium
  • Nerimium
  • Durandium
  • Durandium-T
  • Yama-Dura
  • Yamataium
  • HECAC
  • Yarvex
  • Stonethread
  • Structol
  • Altex
  • Toldedorium
  • Phyliaus
  • Aerudirn
  • cerocrete
  • Strodirn
  • Crynatorium
  • Osmiridium
  • Meridium
  • Kal'suun

Anything missing/Is your material not here?
 
There's some of the Iroma materials. Vandium/Vandinium/Van-something-ium. I know that much but ask @Exhack for further detail.

There's also Gartagen materials, which I believe @Sham knows best. Other than that, I recognise a good chunk of the materials there.

Periodic tables are typically for Elements not compounds.

Untrue: A periodic table is just any table which has coordinates denote expectation of behaviour, groupings or families while within each given cell fields of information are repeated.

Now if I said this was a periodic table of elements, not a periodic table of materials, then you'd be right.

This is actually a very common misconception, don't worry yourself Nashoba.
 
Luca, why would I know the most about Gartagen metal element things? I just use them. I didn't make them nor did I do any extensive research on them.

Their names, however, are: Buk, Kal'suun, Sarquahi

I'd have asked Ira but he's been absent for over a year now. You were what sprung to mind as the next most knowledgeable person.
 
I did some digging because I remembered Garts having a tungstun-carbide compound that might be of some interest, but it seems there have been a few changes since it was first mentioned to me. I've dug up what I can that wasn't already on the list, though:

Buk (light armor)
Sarquahi (heavy armor)

This would normally be about the time I'd volunteer some chelti compounds, but they mostly use composite armor so nothing really worth mentioning other than maybe plastic in some layers and silk (or graphene fiber if you can afford it) as a secondary layer to their personal armor. Only thing of mention that's unique to them is Glop, which I swore had gotten approved at some point. But surely it shouldn't be too hard to get through, right? Right?
 
Yes only materials unique to this setting. We don't need a list of materials that exist in reality, or we'd have to document thousands of items, which just isn't feasible, or particularly useful for us.
 
It could be excluding things like certain fabrics used in clothing, foods, woods, etc.

Edit: To be clear, I want to know what to look for.
