Guidelines

 * When editing a data table that uses the  parameter, be aware that this may break copies of the table that look for specific columns or row data.
 * This is also the case for any of the data table extensions listed above. Be especially careful with this data as it is usually used in several articles.
 * Category:Pages with Data Tables lists all the pages that copy a particular data table. After changing a data table, it is recommended to check all the pages that query it. You may need to the copying page's cache for any changes to appear in the copy.
 * When a column does not apply to a particular row, use the special  value rather than leaving the cell blank.
 * Pages with blank data table cells are added to Category:Articles with Incomplete Data.
