In this example, the scope attribute defines what the headers describe, column or row, which screen readers use. You can add a table using HTML rather than wiki markup, as described at HTML element#Tables. However, HTML tables are discouraged because wikitables are easier to customize and maintain, as described at manual of style on tables.
For years in HTML, a table has always forced an implicit line-wrap (or line-break). So, to keep a table within a line, the workaround is to put the whole line into a table, then embed a table within a table, using the outer table to force the whole line to stay together. Consider the following examples: Wikicode (showing table forces line-break)
An example of an HTML table containing 4 cells: Cell 1: Cell 2: ... In this case the tags colspan and/or rowspan are used - where they are set to a number.
Normally, copying and pasting columns or rows removes the inline CSS styling such as cell colors. There is a way to break up a table (a too-wide table for example) into more tables without losing all the background colors, and other inline styling. Copy the table to 2 sandboxes (or one sandbox, and in the article itself).
Note that, after sorting, the rowspanning cells are cut into rows and their content is repeated (the year "2014" in the example). If the original order of a table is restored by clicking a third time on the same arrow, then the cells will remain repeated and not revert to the original rowspan. See example below. The wikitext is incorrect.
Tables will show the "[hide]" / "[show]" controls in the first row of the table (whether or not it is a header row), unless a table caption is present.(see § Tables with captions) Example with a header row
This adds a new symbol (symbol and/or tex) to the table which will span number-of-meanings rows. It also provides the data for the first row of the symbol/span, using the other parameters. Additional rows for this symbol/span are specified using form 2 below.
These are examples of tables read aloud by screen readers. They may be useful as concrete examples to show to the community, when the community has difficulty in understanding how an accessible table benefits a screen reader user.
