Commentary

Great idea. For the Japanese column, I'll just recommend using kanji. Or, perhaps, I can even modify the Template:Term_list template to include the other languages. Unfortunately, there is no way I can help with this list, 'cause of my language limitation. It's been 16 years since I ever took German. Lemme know if you need anything.

A: What I need is how to use symbols and examples thereof for tables. I get a lot of crap when I google for it. As for German, I was thinking SimonN can help out with that. Senechal (talk) 05:33, 21 December 2014 (UTC)

Extra: I'd like to keep most of the non-English stuff separate, along with the indexing column. Eventually, I want to have a bulletproof list of terms sorted in a logically presentable order, where an alphabetical order or varying sorting criteria may not be sufficient. I do want word genders present when appropriate. Senechal (talk) 08:42, 21 December 2014 (UTC)

Footnotes

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Footnotes

Here is a source on using Footnotes.
  • Example:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Super_Bowl_champions
Heavy use of footnotes there.

Simply put:

<ref name=refname><!--footnote here, only need to do once--></ref>

Coupled with:

{{reflist|name=refname}}

All footnotes associated with "refname" will collect where the reflist template is located, such as its own section, or even just below the table. The code for reflist here is the same exact as in normal Wikipedia. So, I'll expect it to have the same functionality here. KyuuAA (Talk:キュウ) 02:09, 22 December 2014 (UTC)
