Can someone tell me how to split the cast column into two, or even three if possible.

@Danstarr69: Hey, looks like you figured it out! If you need any more help, though, please do feel free to readd the {{Help me}} template as you did. All the best, Naypta ☺ | ✉ talk page | 19:12, 21 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Naypta It's not split. It's still in one big, long column. Danstarr69 (talk) 19:55, 21 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Danstarr69: Hrm, that's weird. It looks fine to me on Firefox on Linux - see the screenshot I've put on the page here. Correctly-split columns on Capstick's Law on Wikipedia What browser and operating system are you using? Might it be that your screen size isn't permitting multiple columns to show, or that your browser doesn't support the columns correctly? You can find information on browser support for the column layout here. Naypta ☺ | ✉ talk page | 20:04, 21 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Naypta I'm on a normal 16 inch laptop, on Windows 8.1 (as Windows 10 corrupted my other laptop with their forced updates in October 2017), and I'm currently using Microsoft Edge browser, as it doesn't seem to crash after having 40 or 50+ tabs open for over a week like Mozilla Firefox and (to a lesser extent) Google Chrome do.
However I've checked Firefox and Chrome too, and they both show the same single column.
I copied the column splitting text from Enzo Cilenti's filmography which is split into two columns, and when that didn't work I copied the text from BritBox's "programmes for 2017" which is also split into two columns (I split the BritBox shows myself on this same computer and browser), yet this article won't let me do the same with the cast.

@Danstarr69: That's very strange. My browser is showing it in at least two columns for any screen over 1363px wide. Are you sure you're not on the mobile version of Wikipedia? If you are, you should be able to scroll down to the bottom and click "desktop". Some column layouts won't show on the mobile version to optimise screen space on phones.

@Danstarr69: It seems to be highly dependent on your screen resolution, and I suspect your screen is too narrow for the columns to take effect. Try zooming out in your browser and see if it jumps to two columns? stwalkerster (talk) 21:13, 21 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
stwalkerster I've zoomed out, and I can see all 3 columns. I have to zoom out to 90% to see 2 columns. And I have to zoom out to 75% to see 3 columns. I suspect it's probably because the split columns on the 2 articles I mentioned are lower down the page, so aren't affected by the infobox like this is.
