Tables are a common way of displaying data. This tutorial provides a guide on making new tables and editing existing ones. For guidelines on when and how to use tables, see the Manual of Style.

This tutorial will introduce the basics of inserting, editing and formatting tables of information. Some advanced features, such as colouring cells, are not yet available with VisualEditor and have to be edited using Wiki Markup.

To use the information presented here, one should enable the visual editor for one's account. To enable it, go to Preferences, click Editing, check the "Enable the visual editor" box, and then click the Save button at the bottom. Once one has done this, while editing, one will be able to switch between source editing and the visual editor by clicking the pencil icon in the upper right.
