Template:Column-generating template families

Column-generating template families

The templates listed here are not interchangeable. For example, using {{ col-float}}

with {{

col-end}}

instead of {{

col-float-end}}

would leave a <div>...</div> open, potentially harming any subsequent formatting.

<section begin="table" />

^† Can template handle the basic wiki markup {| | || |- |} used to create tables? If not, special templates that produce these elements (such as {{ (!}} , {{ !}} , {{ !!}} , {{ !-}} , {{ !)}} )—or HTML tags (<table>...</table>, <tr>...</tr>, etc.)—need to be used instead.<section end="table" />
