If you use tables for two-dimensional graphics you might discover a "feature" in HTML that promotes grey hair. It can affect both rows and columns, depending on the use of either rowspan or colspan.

|+ Table caption adds the caption "Table caption" to the top of the table. A caption is optional, but recommended according to accessibility guidelines. |-adds a new row, which should be followed by the same number of cells found in other rows. Note, rowspan="2" and colspan="2" can be used on cells to span multiple rows and columns.
See example tables below. They all sort correctly. The wikitext for the first entry in each table in the first row is shown in the table header. Note: None of the table columns use the data-sort-type= modifier. Using data-sort-type= can sometimes break sorting when used with the template.

In a database, a table is a collection of related data organized in table format; consisting of columns and rows.. In relational databases, and flat file databases, a table is a set of data elements (values) using a model of vertical columns (identifiable by name) and horizontal rows, the cell being the unit where a row and column intersect.

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.
