Tables
In general, and this is a personal preference, I find text lists superior to wikitables for flexibility, readability and editability. Unless there are hidden "sort by" or export functions available for wikitables, I don't see any advantage to adding all those bounding boxes and shoehorning data into column headings. (Excellent list, though!) --Dystopos 10:31, 13 September 2006 (PDT)
- There aren't any built in sorting methods, but I saw some method of using JavaScript to add them over at Wikipedia. (Unfortunately, I don't remember where I saw that any more.) --Lkseitz 10:45, 13 September 2006 (PDT)
