A syncytium (/ s ɪ n ˈ s ɪ ʃ i ə m /; pl.: syncytia; from Greek: σύν syn "together" and κύτος kytos "box, i.e. cell") or symplasm is a multinucleate cell that can result from multiple cell fusions of uninuclear cells (i.e., cells with a single nucleus), in contrast to a coenocyte, which can result from multiple nuclear divisions without accompanying cytokinesis. [1]
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). Then kill the border between them. Don't forget to fill the cell with nothing ({}). This being the only solution that correctly preserves the cell height, matching that of the reference seven row table.
"Japan" and "New Zealand" are good example of merged cells. Note: having the table caption in a table header instead is suboptimal and annoying. Screen readers might read "By Country" in every cell. As of September 2010, this table header is necessary for the collapsible script to work.
Cell fusion is an important cellular process in which several uninucleate cells (cells with a single nucleus) combine to form a multinucleate cell, known as a syncytium. Cell fusion occurs during differentiation of myoblasts , osteoclasts and trophoblasts , during embryogenesis , and morphogenesis . [ 1 ]
Also, if the table has cell spacing (and thus border-collapse=separate), meaning that cells have separate borders with a gap in between, that gap will still be visible. A cruder way to align columns of numbers is to use a figure space   or   , which is intended to be the width of a numeral, though is font-dependent in practice:
Consecutive table header cells may be added on the same line separated by double marks (!!); or start on new lines, each with its own single mark (!). Data cell | or || Optional Consecutive table data cells may be added on the same line separated by double marks (||) or start on new lines, each with its own single mark (|).
Otherwise, the merge should be first proposed and discussed, as detailed below. When performing a merge, one should remember to reconcile talk pages, and to attribute copied content, as required by Wikipedia's license. At minimum, this means adding words "Merged content to/from [[page]]" to edit summaries. See How to merge below for details.
Download the "Microsoft Office Word Add-in For MediaWiki" from Microsoft Download Center, and install it. Save the document as "MediaWiki (*.txt)" file type. Copy the text from the (*.txt) file into your Wiki page; Note that this extension does not work for Word 2013 by default, however it can be made to work with a registry change. See this page.
