{{#switch:{{lc:{{PAGENAME}}}}
| 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>. 
| 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>. 
| col-4 = The [[Template:Col-4]] sets column width for each of four columns. 
| col-5 = The [[Template:Col-5]] sets column width for each of five columns. 
| 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>. 
| col-start=The [[Template:Col-start]] begins a wikitable (same as <nowiki>{{col-begin}}</nowiki>). 
}}
The {{tl|col-begin}}, {{tl|col-break}} and {{tl|col-end}} templates control columns of text on a page:
:*<nowiki>{{col-begin}}</nowiki>: starts a table (followed by <nowiki>{{col-break}}</nowiki> for 1st column)
:*<nowiki>{{col-break}}</nowiki>: triggers the start of each column
:*<nowiki>{{col-end}}</nowiki>: ends the multi-column table.
The widths of columns can be specified by using various additional codes. See below for examples.

== Usage ==
:: <nowiki>{{col-begin|width=70%}}</nowiki>: start table with width.
:: <nowiki>{{col-break|width=66%}}</nowiki>: start column-1 as 66% wide.
:: This is text in col-1.
:: <nowiki>{{col-break|width=33%}}</nowiki>: start column-2 as 33% wide.
:: Text column-2.
:: <nowiki>{{col-end}}</nowiki>
The table will have two columns, with column 1 twice (2×) the width of column 2.

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:

{|
|
<pre>
{{col-begin|width=95%}}
|-
|
Left column
|
Right column
|}
</pre>
|}

{{col-begin|width=95%}}
{{col-1-of-4}}
{{tl|Col-begin}}
{{tl|Col-2}}
Column 1 here
{{tl|Col-2}}
Column 2 here
{{tl|Col-end}}
{{col-2-of-4}}
{{tl|Col-begin}}

Column 2 here
{{tl|Col-4}}
Column 3 here
{{tl|Col-4}}
Column 4 here
{{tl|Col-end}}
{{col-4-of-4}}
and so on, up to {{tl|Col-7}}
{{col-end}}
