For external links, don't use the standard mediawiki syntax, but our special template which will also give access to the page on the Internet Archive, in-case it gets deleted.
{{link | website=http://taff.org.uk | text=TAFF}} {{link | website=http://taff.org.uk | text=TAFF | capture=2019}}
For tables, don't use the mediawiki standard tables, use the SimpleTable extension with a '||' separator between columns.
