Hello. Last few days, I went on [[Series 11 (Doctor Who)]] and switches two consecutive instances of the same writer for "|rowspan=2". Then, [[User:Zanda21]] simply reverted it with no edit summaries, so I added them back in (because no rationale was given, and the use of rowspans is fairly used on tables). Then, the same user reverted again to previous state with the following rationale: "Actually, there is. Rowspans are atrocious for anyone with a screenreader, as it does not take them into account and causes major issues for readers who use them. Same as colspans". Finally, [[User:Borisashton]] added them back, saying the were used all over the wiki even suggesting to bring it to the forums, but once again Zanda21 reverted edits with the same rationale, claiming rowspan were "introduced recently": ''"When people need help, I never refuse" These were introduced recently, so they should stay reverted until there's a policy to support it. Else, you're refusing entrance to anyone with a screenreader. Hover over the spans, see what happens.''. | Hello.

I really don't want to start an edit war over this, so I'm coming to admin to settle the question: can rowspans be used on tables for series pages? Thanks.
