Cut cells into parts: Instead of trying to make a super-cell that spans rows/columns, split it into smaller cells while leaving some cells intentionally empty. Use a non-breaking space with or {} in empty cells to maintain the table structure. Custom CSS styling: Override the wikitable class defaults by explicitly specifying:
Also, if the table has cell spacing (and thus border-collapse=separate), meaning that cells have separate borders with a gap in between, that gap will still be visible. A cruder way to align columns of numbers is to use a figure space   or   , which is intended to be the width of a numeral, though is font-dependent in practice:
Template:Diagonal split header allows splitting the background color (see below) Template:Diagonal split header 2 produces a line with consistent thickness in very large table cells (see below) As the effect is achieved by drawing a diagonal line across the cell, the two headers are still part of the same cell and can easily overrun the line.
Type the codes for each table cell in the next row, starting with a bar: {| |+ The table's caption |- | cell code goes here |- | next row cell code goes here | next cell code goes here |} Cells can be separated with either a new line and a single bar, or by a double bar "||" on the same line. Both produce the same output:
Required for accessibility purposes on data tables, and placed only between the table start and the first table row. ! header cell Optional. Each header cell starts with a new line and a single exclamation mark (!), or several header cells can be placed consecutively on the same line, separated by double exclamation marks (!!). |-new row

3, 4, 5 and 6 illustrate four different ways that cells in a table can look in wikitext. Each cell must be separated from the previous cell in its row by either inserting two vertical lines between the cells, if the cells are placed on the same line, or putting the second cell on a new line, with one vertical line ("|") at the beginning.
