Tables are a great way to present data.

When you work with tables:

DO:
File:Green check.png Use wikitables, not HTML tables.
File:Green check.png Use class="wikitable" to apply standard style.
File:Green check.png Use short, self-explanatory captions and headers.
File:Green check.png Use CSS classes, not inline attributes, to set table style.
File:Green check.png Make columns sortable as appropriate.

DON'T:
Don't use tables for visual layout.
Don't use color alone to convey information.
Don't nest tables if avoidable.
Don't use scrolling tables in articles.
Don't split up sortable tables.
