A scrolling table in the sense of the vertical scrollbar for the whole page. When you scroll the page the table headers stay visible when the table goes beyond the top of the screen.
If just 2 columns are being swapped within 1 table, then cut/paste editing (of those column entries) is typically faster than column-prefixing, sorting and de-prefixing. Another alternative is to copy the entire table from the displayed page, paste the text into a spreadsheet, move the columns as you will.
Consecutive rows of column headers are top sticky, so avoid adding a row of headers right under the column headers that don't apply to the entire table such as a section header meant to visually separate the table. A solution might be to move each section to a column or separate tables, which also avoids accessibility issues per MOS:COLHEAD.
For complex tables, when a header spans two columns or rows, use ! scope="colgroup" colspan="2" | or ! scope="rowgroup" rowspan="2" | respectively to clearly identify the header as a column header of two columns or a row header of two rows.
The scrollbar only appears if the table is actually wider than the page. This template allows up to 30 row headers passed as parameters to its {{Scrolling table/top}} subtemplate, for convenience. Extra row headers can be added using regular table syntax, between the {{Scrolling table/top}} and the {{Scrolling table/mid}} subtemplates
Specifies whether a header cell is a header for a column (scope="col"), row (scope="row"), group of columns (colspan="2" scope="colgroup"), or group of rows (rowspan="2" scope="rowgroup"). It has no visual effect, but is used by screen readers and is recommended according to accessibility guidelines .
Note that a summary is not needed in most of Wikipedia's tables. The summary is useful when the table has a complex structure (for example, when there are several sets of row or column headers, or when there are multiple groups of columns or rows). The summary may also be helpful for simple data tables that contain many columns or rows of data.
