Template talk:Split table

Bold
Anyone have a problem with me removing the bolding that occurs to the second column? ~ Lhynard (talk) 21:07, January 10, 2015 (UTC)


 * I know BCM is dubious about the bolded column, and I think this template is overdue for an overhaul anyway. If nobody has a strong reason for keeping it, I will polish it up. Does everyone agree to left-justified columns like we have in most other places? Would you like a smaller font size to fit more stuff in? &mdash;Moviesign (talk) 22:47, January 10, 2015 (UTC)


 * Left-justified would be the best default, but I would suggest an option for supplied the justification desired. I think date ranges look best centered, and other numeric values might look best right justified. ~ Lhynard (talk) 23:03, January 10, 2015 (UTC)


 * Challenge accepted. &mdash;Moviesign (talk) 15:44, January 12, 2015 (UTC)

New Split Table
Okay, the new Split Table is live, let me know if it causes you any problems. It totally sucks that COLGROUP is not supported by MediaWiki, so the template looks a bit messy, but that's the way the Waterdhavian (cheese) crumbles. You can specify the alignment of the left and right columns by using the parameters lca and rca (for left- and right-column alignment respectively). Typical values are "left" (default), "right" (good for numbers), and "center" (for date ranges and the like). There are also caption and captionstyle options for those who want to get really fancy. I will write up the documentation after a short trial/feedback period. Enjoy! &mdash;Moviesign (talk) 17:42, January 12, 2015 (UTC)
