What do the 'create', 'order', 'numeric', and 'ascending'/'descending' parameters mean, how do they function, and how do I use 'colspan' and 'rowspan' on this module? -- [[User:PK2|PK2]] ([[User talk:PK2|talk]]) 07:51, 18 August 2020 (UTC)

== Edit request: Accessible code ==

{{Edit template-protected}}

First of all, I hope I've used an appropriate temple for this edit request. There seems to be no [[Template:Edit module-protected]], and there's no [[Template: AutosortTable]] in front of this module.

My request is this: please add the necessary code to increase the compatibility of the output with [[WP:ACCESS]], esp. [[MOS:DTAB]].

Specifically, I'm hoping for two changes:

# Add the capability of specifying a table caption. (Wikitables do this with <code>|+ Some caption</code> in the wikicode.)

# When generating a new row, emit the first cell as a row header with scope. Wikitables do this with <code>!scope="row"| </code>. The current module code produces simple data cells with <code><nowiki><td></nowiki></code>, which doesn't help screen reader tools.

Thanks, <i>&mdash;&nbsp;[[User:JohnFromPinckney|JohnFromPinckney]] ([[User talk:JohnFromPinckney|talk]])</i> 19:16, 14 February 2021 (UTC)
