NFPA 704 four-colored diamondFlammability (red): no hazard codeHealth (blue): no hazard codeReactivity (yellow): no hazard codeSpecial hazards (white): no code

This template produces a NFPA 704 fire diamond with optionally four hazard codes. It is designed to be used in a table. Outside of a wikitable, showing is not controlled.

Primary use is through {{Chembox}}, the {{NFPA 704}} box and {{OrganicBox complete}} (chemical data pages).

Parameters |F=, |H=|R= accept codes 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, -. Code - (hyphen) produces a blank ("no hazard code").

A blank can be set (enforced) by entering ​=-​, a hyphen. This is the preferred way to reflect what the source states (don't depend on the default blank in this situation).

​=​ <blank>
NFPA 704 four-colored diamondFlammability (red): no hazard codeHealth (blue): no hazard codeReactivity (yellow): no hazard codeSpecial hazards (white): no code

All four codes default to blank, that is: no NFPA code is present or shown. There is no specific text (just a link to the NFPA color section). Note that a blank is not the same as code "0". Code "0" is an explicit statement, while a blank is the absence of any statement.

A blank can also be enforced by entering ​=-​ (hyphen). This is the preferred way to reflect what the source states (do not depend on default).

From the input, spaces and even newlines (all whitespace) are treated as blank. Note that =&nbsp; code produces an error, but entering the nbsp character (>​=​ <) is accepted as a space (blank).

The "Special" quarter is sometimes called "Other".

Articles with unknown codes are listed for maintenance (correction) in Category:Articles with unknown NFPA 704 code. Other pages (like this documentation) are not categorized, but have a message instead. This categorizing can be switched off by setting |cat=no

Note that =&nbsp; code produces an error, but entering the nbsp character (= ) is accepted as a space (blank).

References can be added using |ref=.

|ref=<ref>{{cite web|url=http://chemlabs.uoregon.edu/Safety/NFPA_White.html|title=More on white codes}}</ref>

The <ref> ... </ref> tags should be added. Multiple references can be entered. Depending on cell width, the links show above or next to the diamond. While technically possible to enter plain text, this is not supported (and this could be disallowed in the future).

These are the title texts (mousehover texts), shown for a code used in the diamond. They are plain text; not links or styles can be entered.

Better not to use RGB colors named red, blue, yellow, because these produce a bad contrast with the text.
