Learn the wiki syntax for creating tables. Remember, you can also use the Visual Editor for a quick and easy way to create tables.
Creating tables using wiki syntax
The following table was made with:
{| class="wikitable"
|+ Table Caption
!width="10%"|Header 1
!width="10%"|Header 2
!width="10%"|Header 3
!width="70%"|Header 4
|-
| Cell 1 || Cell 2 || Cell 3 || Cell 4
|-
| Cell 5 || Cell 6 || Cell 7 || Cell 8
|-
| Cell 9 || Cell 10 || Cell 11 || Cell 12
|-
| Cell 13 || Cell 14 || Cell 15 || Cell 16
|}
| Header 1 | Header 2 | Header 3 | Header 4 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cell 1 | Cell 2 | Cell 3 | Cell 4 |
| Cell 5 | Cell 6 | Cell 7 | Cell 8 |
| Cell 9 | Cell 10 | Cell 11 | Cell 12 |
| Cell 13 | Cell 14 | Cell 15 | Cell 16 |
The pretty styling happens by calling class="wikitable". This css must added to your Mediawiki:Common.css page. See this wiki's Common.css for an example.
