Wikipedia:Community feature requests/Hide columns in tables

Hide columns in tables

• Problem: Big long tables in Wikipedia can become hard to navigate
• Proposed solution: Allow readers to hide or collapse columns in tables
• Who would benefit: Readers. Also editors may be more inclined to add extra data columns
• Category:Reading
• More comments: For example consider a List of conutries by population. You want to view just the country name and percentage of world. Being able to hide/collapse the other columns would be handy.
