I haven t edited the Abkhaz language article at all and I m not quite sure what you re referring to there By clunkiness I meant how much code you ve added particularly all the width specifications and the colspan and border specifications though I have made peace with those The width specifications unlike the colspan and border ones seem in most cases to have no effect removing them doesn t seem to change the appearance of the table Therefore for simplicity s sake I removed them I suppose you must have added them to make all columns have equal width In that case you could simplify by using percentages and specifying the widths of the heading columns at the top I ll show you what I mean in the Modern Greek phonology article
