: While one one hand, it does help, on the other hand, the need to fix the consistency issues with names is a factor at play right now.  Furthermore, I have discovered that there are more intervals that need to be added to the list. --[[User:Aura|Aura]] ([[User talk:Aura|talk]]) 19:40, 18 October 2020 (UTC)

== table syntax and column alignment ==
Table heading cells are marked with an exclamation mark at the beginning of the line, there's no need for an additional pipe char if there are no class or style attributes. Column alignment is done by adding more classes after <code>wikitable</code>, separated by spaces. Numbers with a fixed amount of decimals (2nd column) should be right-aligned (<code>right-2</code>). Ratios (1st column) look best if center-aligned (<code>center-1</code>).
Therefore I suggest to replace
<pre>
{| class="wikitable"
|-
!| Interval
!| Cents
!| Names
|-
</pre>
by this
<pre>
{| class="wikitable center-1 right-2"
|-
! Interval
! Cents
! Names
|-
</pre>
And finally let me add that a 6-decimal doesn't add anything if the minimal differences is more than 2 cents. It's only harder to separate significant information from the insignificant one when reading, IOW the excessive precision just adds noise here:
{| class="wikitable sortable center-1 right-2"
|-
! class="unsortable" | Interval
! Cents
! class="unsortable" | Names
