| col-2 = The [[Template:Col-2]] sets column width for each of two columns, with align=left, valign=top. The width, align or valign can be changed: <nowiki>{{col-2 |width=40%|align=right|valign=center}}</nowiki>.<br/><br/><br />
| col-3 = The [[Template:Col-3]] sets column width for each of three columns, with align=left, valign=top. The width, align or valign can be changed: <nowiki>{{col-3 |width=25%|align=right|valign=center}}</nowiki>.<br/><br/><br />
| col-4 = The [[Template:Col-4]] sets column width for each of four columns.<br/><br/><br />
| col-5 = The [[Template:Col-5]] sets column width for each of five columns.<br/><br/><br />
| col-6 = The [[Template:Col-6]] sets column width for each of six columns, with align=left, valign=top. The width, align or valign can be changed: <nowiki>{{col-6 |width=20%|align=right|valign=center}}</nowiki>.<br/><br/><br />
| col-start=The [[Template:Col-start]] begins a wikitable (same as <nowiki>{{col-begin}}</nowiki>).<br/><br/><br />

The {{tl|col-begin}}, {{tl|col-break}} and {{tl|col-end}} templates control columns of text on a page:<br />
:*<nowiki>{{col-begin}}</nowiki>: starts a table (followed by <nowiki>{{col-break}}</nowiki> for 1st column)<br />
:*<nowiki>{{col-break}}</nowiki>: triggers the start of each column<br />
:*<nowiki>{{col-end}}</nowiki>: ends the multi-column table.<br />
The widths of columns can be specified by using various additional codes. See below for examples.<br />
<br />
== Usage ==<br />
:: <nowiki>{{col-begin|width=70%}}</nowiki>: start table with width.<br />
:: <nowiki>{{col-break|width=66%}}</nowiki>: start column-1 as 66% wide.<br />
:: This is text in col-1.<br />
:: <nowiki>{{col-break|width=33%}}</nowiki>: start column-2 as 33% wide.<br />
:: Text column-2.<br />
:: <nowiki>{{col-end}}</nowiki><br />
The table will have two columns, with column 1 twice (2×) the width of column 2.<br />
<br />
A border of 2px (1px width on each side) corresponds to a 5%. Therefore, with a 2px border—for example, as in [[Wikipedia:Tutorial/Wrap-up and more info]]—the width needs to be 95% for the table to fit within the screen. Since it's possible that some tables might not have a border, correction on the individual page could be made after substitution. Another way to create a two column table is like this:<br />
<br />
{|<br />
|<br />
<pre><br />
{{col-begin|width=95%}}<br />
|-<br />
| <br />
Left column<br />
|<br />
Right column<br />
|}<br />
</pre><br />
|}<br />
