Module:Sports table
 | This Lua module is used on approximately 67,000 pages and changes may be widely noticed. Test changes in the module's /sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own module sandbox. Consider discussing changes on the talk page before implementing them. |
 | This module is rated as ready for general use. It has reached a mature form and is thought to be relatively bug-free and ready for use wherever appropriate. It is ready to mention on help pages and other Wikipedia resources as an option for new users to learn. To reduce server load and bad output, it should be improved by sandbox testing rather than repeated trial-and-error editing. |
 | This module is subject to page protection. It is a highly visible module in use by a very large number of pages, or is substituted very frequently. Because vandalism or mistakes would affect many pages, and even trivial editing might cause substantial load on the servers, it is protected from editing. |

More styles
The module uses Lua to create the tables. Most functionality is obtained from the main module, but specific column formatting comes from the style sub-modules. The existing styles can handle a lot of different options. In case you need additional options it could be useful to create a new style. Note that some tweaking of an existing style could give you the functionality you need, rather than creating a completely new style. In case you do create a new style, you might want to refer to the Lua reference manual.
Other options
Other options can be used, for example: {{#invoke:Sports table|main|style=WL OT
|sortable_table = yes
|source=ICC
|update=July 28, 2018
section
When there are two sports tables on the same page, you can use |section= to provide an anchor name for the table. Pages transcluding the table, will have modified "VTE" links where the "view" link points to the anchor. Pages transcluding the table and using |transcludesection= will only show tables with a matching |section= and not all tables.
sortable_table
"yes" makes the table columns sortable
source
Adds a link which should point to a web resource with the information for verifying or updating the table
update
Gives the date when the table info was last updated. This is to be set manually – it's not automatically changed when someone changes the table. For a final table set "complete".
float
Set to left or right to float the table to the left or right on the page
title_source
To append a reference to the title and suppress the need for a source at the foot of the table
