:win percentage or winning percentage looks like it's a bit of a UK/US thing, win is more common in the UK than winning. Regarding bolding, just because those sources don't bold the column is not necessarily a reason for WP not to, you could call it WP's house style. That said, almost anything is possible and looking at the code for WDL it doesn't look the most difficult change to put a bold/normal font weight flag in, although for backwards compatibility with all the existing tables there would have to be an acceptance that bold is the default.

::FWIW, re: [[WP:ENGVAR]], "winning percentage" is used in sports such as basketball, and in league tables that this is used, it's a safe bet none of those are from the UK. Re [[MOS:BOLD]], we do have a house style, and it seems that this is not one of the cases... at least I can [[WP:IAR]] association football usage since it is near universal. The league table not having boldface for teams using winning percentage, it's all near universal.

:::@[[User:Howard the Duck|Howard the Duck]] I'll have a play around in the sandbox. Is this only WDL or are there any others that need to be considered? [[User:Nthep|Nthep]] ([[User talk:Nthep|talk]]) 10:58, 19 April 2025 (UTC)
