Help talk:Table/Advanced
Strange page name
This page, "Help:Table. Advanced", has an unusual name that does not conform to any page naming scheme I have seen on Wikipedia. Is it a mistake? If not, what is the reasoning behind the name? If it is a mistake (or a rough draft name), I recommend "Help:Table/Advanced" as a more standard name. – Jonesey95 (talk) 20:59, 15 December 2023 (UTC)
- It is odd and looks like a typo. I see a section header with the same period: "mw-datatable. Highlight rows. White background". I recommend the same, remove the periods. Jroberson108 (talk) 21:06, 15 December 2023 (UTC)
- Jonesey95. See: Wikipedia talk:Article titles#Leftover subpages? Slashes are for subpages. For example:
- Special:MyPage/vector-2022.css which for me is User:Timeshifter/vector-2022.css - For Vector 2022.
- Special:MyPage/sandbox which for me is User:Timeshifter/sandbox.
- To find subpages:
- Special:Prefixindex/User:Timeshifter/

- Exactly. This page appears to be intended as an adjunct to Help:Table, like Help:Table/Width. Hence the suggestion of a similar name. The current name makes no sense to me, and to at least one other editor. Again, what is the reasoning behind the name? – Jonesey95 (talk) 05:14, 16 December 2023 (UTC)
- This is not a minor subpage. There are whole new areas of table info not previously discussed in Help:Table. --Timeshifter (talk) 05:28, 16 December 2023 (UTC)
