I think a navbox would look better here, something like this:
Generally, it seems that a navbox is preferred when you have a list of links to other related articles, (see WP:NAV and Ice II). I don't know why this needs to be an ordinary section; if you have a special reason please tell us, otherwise, if no one objects in a couple of days, I'll go ahead and replace this template.

I've added groups to the navbox, if anything is missing or out of place, please fix it. Jkasd (talk) 18:55, 25 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I've updated the template to a navbox. Here is the old version:
- Obviously, one could continue creating pages for every organic chemistry affix (e.g. meth-, eth-, prop-, cis-, trans-, etc.), but this begs the question, when do we stop? Do we even need the ones here? I'm starting to think that most of these pages are unnecessary. Jkasd (talk) 22:42, 26 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Right. This information should be in wiktionary not wikipedia. All prefixes belonging to any topic can be categorized there. – ishwar (speak) 06:27, 28 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Or we could merge them all into one page about components of organic chemical names, but keep it on Wikipedia. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 06:56, 28 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
