The answer is that when the table has a row without containing any rowspan=1 cell, this row is "compressed" upwards and disappears. Solution : divide one of the tall cells so that the row gets one rowspan=1 cell (and don't mind the eventual loss of text-centering).
The data cell wikitext needs to be on a separate line from the row header cell for that row. See the next table. To make this happen use Excel2Wiki. Copy the table right off the page (not the wikitext) and paste it into Excel2Wiki. Remove the table caption text for now. Check the following boxes: format first row as header; format first column ...
Background color on rows will look off if one of the cells spans multiple rows (ex. rowspan="2"). If the table is sortable, then this gets fixed once sorted since sortable collapses row spans. If the table is sortable, then this gets fixed once sorted since sortable collapses row spans.
Currently, there does not seem to be a way to copy those tables to a wiki and keep styling such as colors (background or text color). It is possible to convert PDF tables to Excel and keep the colors. Or to HTML tables and keep the colors. But there does not seem to be a way to copy any of those colored tables (PDF, Excel, HTML, etc.) to a wiki.
the basic code for a table row; code for color, alignment, and sorting mode; fixed texts such as units; special formats for sorting; In such a case, it can be useful to create a template that produces the syntax for a table row, with the data as parameters. This can have many advantages: easily changing the order of columns, or removing a column
Adding a row isn't difficult either: In editing mode, find the row above or below where you want to add a row; copy that row and paste it into the table. Now you have two identical rows; edit one of them with the information you're adding. (Deleting a row is even easier than adding one; just select the lines that make up that row, and delete away.)
