Oh, cool! The details code could be used for spoilers.
Spoiler: Where are you?
I’m right here. 
Yeah. I like that. (Oh course, there’s probably a code specifically for spoilers).
So, you want to make this easy on yourself? Make the tables in Excel and then just highlight and paste in here. It will auto format for you.
Just tested it for funsies seeing as it auto formats when you copy from json, so i thought excel might work too. It does. It assumes whatever your top line is, is the header and puts a bold line under it. The columns under that header are all auto aligned.
This took seconds.

Could you test that with cells that have left, center, and right alignment in both the header and data cells? I suspect it isn’t truly formatting it and is just using the default left alignment.
| WING TYPE | LOCATION | AVAILABLE Y/N |
|---|---|---|
| Test | Here | N |
| Test 2 | There | Y |
| Test 3 | Whimsy | Y |
| WING TYPE | LOCATION | AVAILABLE Y/N | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Test | Here | N | |
| Test 2 | There | Y | |
| Test 3 | Whimsy | Y | |

Oh my, it takes the plain text output of formulas too! How nifty. That bottom right is a basic SUM function.
Data Cells and Header cells formatted as requested and no, it does not function as a fancy editor that adds that level of formatting. It just grabs the basics and makes you a really easy table. Perfect for the basics and anyone can easily do it! Even me!

Cool. Very handy.
Look at the code, tables are in easy format.
You may change the alignment afterwards.
Since the software auto-adjust the column width based on the data length, you may want to manually break a long line.
You may do so, by inserting a <br> tag.
Yeah, I get to do it the hard way. ![:slight_smile:](https://d1hnj6esvk269c.cloudfront.net/en/d3/images/emoji/twitter/slight_smile.png?v=6" ":slight_smile:")

All I had to do was take a text document and put a tab between the number and the name another tab between name and source. Copy from text to excel and it puts it right in columns for me. Copy from excel into forum. Done.
Thank you, MissCheetah. It appears to use what Maskraider calls the “Easy format”.
This is what the syntax looks like with the table you posted:
|WING TYPE |LOCATION|AVAILABLE Y/N|
|---|---|---|
|Test|Here|N|
|Test 2|There|Y|
|Test 3|Whimsy|Y|
Which produces this:
| WING TYPE | LOCATION | AVAILABLE Y/N |
|---|---|---|
| Test | Here | N |
| Test 2 | There | Y |
| Test 3 | Whimsy | Y |
You could further adjust the alignment by modifying the second line in the syntax. But, as we found out earlier, whatever alignment you set, it applies to all rows, including the header.
I still like that you can just type it out in Excel and copy/paste it here. 
@Maskraider beat me to the post.

Yes! You can copy from a text doc into excel and then into here even. Let the software do all the work for you. For guides that is not ideal because those are fancy, but for most simple things people are used to excel. Just copy pasting and getting a use-able table is win win.
Same things happens if you copy paste from the json file. It puts it into easy format
Oh, now you’ve got me really curious…

It was just a test
Well, that didn't work like I expected to. It was a copy/paste job of a Word document I created back in... I stopped in Season 16. But, it was an ongoing project since D3 was released.I had to try it! I opened up the .txt of my Cosmetics post Nev sent me. Copy pasted a section. It did not put the source in a column. Then I realized that the thing separating number and name was a TAB. Added a TAB between the name and source, tried again, and it put everything into columns for me.
- TAB Name TAB Source

I understand. I just wanted to see what copy/pasting directly from a Word document would produce. (Not plain text. Word-formatted text).
I copied some straight from your code box into Word then to Excel. It needs a bit of tweaking as something is off in the Word formatting, but overall it is an easy transition.
My take away is that anything already in a Word or .txt can be easily modified with TABS and copied to Excel then the forum. Makes for simple conversions of some of our TS/CS/Bug copy paste replies.
No problem. I now have two methods of making tables.
For long tables I’ll use the “Advanced formatting”. This should be easy since I have a template to work with.
For shorter tables I’ll use the “Easy formatting”. This too will be easy thanks to your Excel information.

That chart was probably too large for these forums anyway.
I try to keep it updated here: The Amazon Basin - Diablo III: Seasons.
No, it fits. I just was having trouble grabbing the whole text in the code box because of how it scrolls. It fits here just fine! I also see why it had the odd stuff between line 4 and 5, extra tabs. Did that patch mid season? I assume that is why they are on diff lines.
Oh, and D3 Resource also has a fantastic season tracker. Diablo 3 Seasons Overview
Yes. Patch 2.3.0 was deployed right after Season 4. Then, before Season 5 started they deployed Patch 2.4.0. At the end of Season 5 we got Patch 2.4.1.
Always.
I got to try this. I went back to The Amazon Basin and entered Edit mode to copy that chart. I’m going to paste it below and see what happens.
You might want to stand back in case I blow something up. ![:fireworks:](https://d1hnj6esvk269c.cloudfront.net/en/d3/images/emoji/twitter/fireworks.png?v=6" ":fireworks:")
