    • If justified: Primary and (optionally) Secondary sections listing uses
    • If not yet justified: Other section listing uses and {{Justify}} tag
  • Natural Occurrence
  • Hazards
  • Production
    • Must have harvesting, extraction, or synthesis subsections
      • Sub-subsection for each primary source or method of production
  • PTSD sections
    • Purification
    • Testing
    • Storage
    • Disposal
  • See Also
  • References
