How about making this a wikitable?[edit]

I personally am not a fan of tables like this one. Would there be any objection to my making this a wikitable, by simply adding "class=wikitable"? – Muboshgu (talk) 23:40, 17 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Agree. I have no preference for either style, so I'll vote agree. (is this a vote? :P)--NullSpace (talk) 10:30, 18 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I guess a vote will do. I just wanted to see if there would be any objection. We'll see if any objections happen after I make the change. – Muboshgu (talk) 21:20, 18 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Disagree, looks very ugly. –BuickCentury Driver 00:52, 24 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Improving the table[edit]

Since this wikitable sorts, I propose to modify the table to look like this (example 2016 World Series):

Game	Date	Score				Location	Time	Attendance
Game	Date	Away team		Home team		Location	Time	Attendance
1	October 25	Chicago Cubs	0	Cleveland Indians	6	Progressive Field	3:37	38,091
2	October 26	Chicago Cubs	5	Cleveland Indians	1	Progressive Field	4:04	38,172
3	October 28	Cleveland Indians	1	Chicago Cubs	0	Wrigley Field	3:33	41,703
4	October 29	Cleveland Indians	7	Chicago Cubs	2	Wrigley Field	3:16	41,706
5	October 30	Cleveland Indians	2	Chicago Cubs	3	Wrigley Field	3:27	41,711
6	November 1	Chicago Cubs	9	Cleveland Indians	3	Progressive Field	3:29	38,116
7	November 2	Chicago Cubs	—	Cleveland Indians	—	Progressive Field

Proposed changes:

All of the text in the wikitable will be centered.
There will be a {{dts}} template embedded for the dates.
The score column, while unsorted, will span four columns with away team and home team spanning two columns each for the teams and respective scores.
