For tabular data. We used to have one but it was removed, it would be nice to have it back again.

Again, what would you use it for? I know myself what table bbcode does.

I'd personally use it for laying out posts in a more readable form, such as patch notes for versions or theorycrafting out balance ideas.

Long lists can sometimes be quite hard to read I find.

Why would you want to restrict bbcode? I don't see any negatives.

It isnt about restricting bbcode but the effort to add it; the effort for uak who probably has other things for ENT to do.

Any ELO and stats related things can be added on the wiki with more powerful formatting (see lihl). Regarding patch notes, I dont see how a table can help you? It offers more columns, yes, but patch notes or suggestions barely go in width but rather length.

And if you still need some sort of formatting so badly, using a pre-defined format with bbcode will get the same result.

Anyway, I will leave it here and uak will do it when he has time.

Tried adding some bbcode from https://www.phpbb.com/community/viewtop ... 5#p4078025 but as the person said, users can use [td] and [tr] outside of [table] to mess up the layout. I don't see a robust way to implement this without having that issue or raising other potential security concerns.
