Usage

To specify a straightforward table without needing to input all the wikicode required (in particular the |- row divisions).

{{Table
|type  =        // default: style="border:#c9c9c9 1px solid; margin: 1em 1em 1em 0; border-collapse: collapse;"
|title =     
|hdrs  =        // first header !! second header !! ... 
|row1  =        // first cell's contents {{!!}} second cell's contents {{!!}} ... 
...
|row100 =        // last possible row
}}

All parameters optional.

Examples

Example One

{{Table
|hdrs=Timeline
|row1=2001 Started research
|row2=2002 Published findings}}

class="wikitable"

Example Two

{{Table
|type=class="wikitable sortable"
|title=Example Table Two
|hdrs=Year!!Comments
|row1=2001{{!!}}Started research
|row2=2002{{!!}}Published findings}}

class="wikitable"

-==Misuse of this template==
-This text (that accomplishes nothing) may appear within a page's wikimarkup: '''<nowiki>{{table}}</nowiki>'''. To prevent this from occurring, a message is displayed to the user instructing them about misuse. Also, the page is added to the [[:Category:Articles using the table template incorrectly|Articles using the table template incorrectly]] category. After the initial cleanup (all instances of <nowiki>{{table}}</nowiki> were removed), it seems unlikely now that someone would use this template wrong because of the warning message. But keep an eye on that category, just in case!
