Column-generating template families
The templates listed here are not interchangeable. For example, using ((col-float)) with ((col-end)) instead of ((col-float-end)) would leave a HTML "div" (division) open, potentially harming any subsequent formatting.

† Can template handle the basic wiki markup {| | || |- |} used to create tables? If not, special templates that produce these elements (such as (((!)), ((!)), ((!!)), ((!-)), ((!))))—or HTML tags (<table>...</table>, <tr>...</tr>, etc.)—need to be used instead.
