 : I'm concerned the table will have too much cognitive load for the end user. Instead of looking to see if a given refiner can match the needs of a user, the user must now keep track of the names in each category and cross reference those names against their needs to get a unified list of potential characters. --[[User:Devalt Yotosala|Devalt Yotosala]] ([[User talk:Devalt Yotosala|talk]]) 23:04, 29 July 2022 (UTC)
+: A filter drop down for Wiki tables currently does not exist. Perhaps there is an extension, but installing any extension involves calling in Bates to install it. [[User:Arin Mara|Arin Mara]] ([[User talk:Arin Mara|talk]]) 20:10, 30 July 2022 (UTC)
 :: Is it possible to break the original template into multiple rows - "Asteroid Ores", "Moon Ores", "Other" - then just type freeform into those boxes, which are at level V?  There's only what, five types in any one category?  We could use just simple text and only the single descriptive word, rather than linking to the full skill name - e.g. fill out the "Moon Ore" section of the template with "Ubiquitous, Common, Uncommon, Rare, Exceptional".  And don't hide these three sections in an expand box, just leave them as text on the profile.
