How should each table be formatted?

I recently started to learn how the Bible is divided in different...I don't know, parts, sub parts, sub sub parts? So far, my favorite explanation is here. https://menorah-bible.jimdofree.com/english/structure-of-the-bible/ I wonder if the tables here in this article could be more like the tables in the linked page. I've been learning about formatting on Wikipedia, but I can't figure out just how to do this. I also think the tables should be sortable. 2600:4040:5556:D100:B971:B4CB:BE3F:CCCE (talk) 03:49, 5 September 2023 (UTC)

The two tables are mostly unsourced

The two tables are mostly unsourced. I think it is better to have no information than unsourced or poorly sourced information, WP:V. Thus, what is unsource in those two tables should either be sourced, let us say within 3 months, or be deleted. Veverve (talk) 20:02, 13 July 2023 (UTC)

I have removed what was unsourced. I suggest that if one adds columns, it be done as follow: adding all the references to a group's specific canon in one single note that is put next to the group's name (e.g., "YYYYY Church"[1]).

You eliminated some things that you shouldn't have, Eastern Orthodox tradition and Oriental Orthodox tradition are different, they are not the same. You only left the Eastern Orthodox tradition while you eliminated the Oriental Orthodox tradition. I want to think that for you both are the same.Rafaelosornio (talk) 22:00, 16 September 2023 (UTC)
No, they are not the same and I am aware of it. As I have explained above, the problem was the sheer lack of sources for those claims. Veverve (talk) 04:01, 17 September 2023 (UTC)
