Tables are a way of presenting links, data or information in rows and columns. They are a complex form of list. Tables might be used for presenting mathematical data such as multiplication tables, comparative figures, or sporting results. They might also be used for presenting equivalent words in two or more languages; for awards by type and year; complex discographies; etc. Consideration may be given to [[Help:Collapsing|collapsing]] tables which [[MOS:COLLAPSE|consolidate information covered in the prose]].
