Help:Tables

This help page references the classic editor. Note that the VisualEditor may behave differently.

Tables are a great tool to help organize your pages to display data, facts and other information. Tables can be created both in the editor's visual mode and via wikitext.

Step by step

To create a table, click on the table button on the right rail of the editor's visual mode.

1. In edit mode, click on the table button under the "Insert" section of the editing toolbar.
2. A popup box will appear, and allow you to choose the parameters you want for your table.

   

3. Once you click OK, a table will appear in your text. You can now input content.
4. Should you need to change the table parameters, simply right click, and make the needed changes
