MediaWiki’s wikitable class (class="wikitable") is designed for straightforward table formatting and enforces certain global styles that make removing borders between adjacent cells challenging even if custom CSS styles attempt to eliminate these borders. Specifically, the class includes:

For table markup, it can be applied to whole tables, table captions, table rows, and individual cells. CSS specificity in relation to content should be considered since applying it to a row could affect all that row's cells and applying it to a table could affect all the table's cells and caption, where styles closer to the content can override ...
