<u>Bye!</u>

Table syntax[edit source]
Tables always start on a new line with
Example:{| |Jagex |Rules |}
would yield:
Jagex | Rules |
Of course, it is hard to visually distinguish between the cells in the above simple table. Adding class="wikitable" will rectify that this. Also, a new row of cells can be created by adding |- on a new line.
Example:
{| class="wikitable" |Old School RuneScape |Wiki |- |Jagex |Rules |}
would yield:
Old School RuneScape | Wiki |
Jagex | Rules |
Finally, adding in a heading involves starting a new line with ! instead of |, like so:
{| class="wikitable" !HP Level !Firebuilding Level |- |50 |70 |}
would yield:
HP Level | Firebuilding Level |
---|---|
50 | 70 |
It is possible to make tables more complex than this, with more columns and rows (and other features).
