column widths and other adjustments

Hello @Muboshgu, Frietjes, and Zacchaeusbarbour: I'm not sure why the edits on June 29 and 30 were reverted. Can all of you describe the issues you were resolving and provide sample pages, so I can have a look? In my browser, the modified column widths result in the "V T E" menu encroaching on the space for the division name, so maybe just the overall table width can be adjusted without changing the percentages? isaacl (talk) 04:04, 4 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Well, this is what I saw before I made my edit, and my edit fixed the problem. So, since I gave a reason for making the edit and this reverter said nothing, I'm restoring my fix. – Muboshgu (talk) 06:09, 4 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Oh I see what you mean about the V T E menu. Got any ideas on how to fix that? – Muboshgu (talk) 06:13, 4 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
On a mobile browser I presume? In that case the width can't be made any wider. I'll look into it... isaacl (talk) 12:33, 4 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
you might try adding |class=nowrap where necessary? Frietjes (talk) 13:06, 4 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I was about to say exactly the same thing, VTE was encroaching the text, which was why I reverted it.Z.I. Barbour (talk) 16:02, 4 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Isaacl: Not a mobile browser, on my laptop. The way I just edited it now worked for the way I browse. I can check mobile as well to see if it works there. – Muboshgu (talk) 16:25, 4 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I have not seen the same issue as you with the win-loss record breaking onto two lines. Is this something new, or have the standings tables always looked like this? Do all of them have the same issue? Have you set a larger default font size? (However, since the table is sized relative to the font size, it should in theory scale up accordingly.) A wider table width may help. (I forgot that tables wider than the viewport on mobile devices will scroll left-right, so the wider width will still help there). isaacl (talk) 20:07, 4 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Winning percentage starting with 0.

@Muboshgu:Somebody should remove 0. in winning percentage as no MLB standings show winning percentages with leading 0 outside of Wikipedia. The leading 0 wasn't always there, why somebody add the zero before the decimal point? Seeing the leading zero in winning percentages irritates me. PlanetStar 05:24, 8 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
