Here's a simple wiki-table:
| Name | 2007 Score | 2008 Score | 2009 Score |
|---|---|---|---|
| Al | 5 | 2 | 7 |
| Gwendoline | 12 | 4 | 3 |
| Sayeed | 8 | 2 | 11 |
| Jo | 6 | 4 | 3 |
Here's the same table marked up correctly to aid accessibility:
| Name | 2007 Score | 2008 Score | 2009 Score |
|---|---|---|---|
| Al | 5 | 2 | 7 |
| Gwendoline | 12 | 4 | 3 |
| Sayeed | 8 | 2 | 11 |
| Jo | 6 | 4 | 3 |
Now the problem is that many editors strongly dislike the centring of 'Al', 'Gwendoline', 'Sayeed', 'Jo', and the markup is resisted for that reason alone. The resistance would disappear if .wikitable th[scope=row] {text-align: left;} were implemented. --RexxS (talk) 21:14, 11 October 2010 (UTC)
