 This is particularly useful when making a new language page on Linguifex, since it automatically generates some sections for you that you might not want to tackle right away, but might still want to keep track of for future reference.

 Tables in HTML and Wiki format are ''always'' less intuitive than using a word processor or something like that. But you do have similar control. But you should plan your tables accordingly ahead of time, making sure they're formatted in a sane way you can easily make changes to later.

 Let's say you just want a simple table '''''right now''''', you can do that easily just by going up to the top of the Linguifex editor pane, and clicking '''Advanced'''. At the very end of the icons that have now popped up, there is a table icon (as of 08:37, 9 March 2017 (CET) at least). This comes with checkboxes for various options, and the preview image will show you what they change. For now, let's make a 3x3 non-sortable table with headers and see what happens in the code!
