Header cell vs. normal cell[edit]

@Redrose64: I've usually seen this used like a header (saying something like "Future extension"), sometimes above another {{S-rail}} header row. What's the semantic reason for making this look like a header but not actually a header? Jc86035 (talk) Use {{re|Jc86035}}

The appearance is perhaps historical, but header cells should only be used for actual headers - these may be column headers, or row headers. It's called {{s-note}} because it's for notes. Notes do not necessarily precede something - more often, they follow it. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 13:59, 4 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Redrose64: Wouldn't a note following a header or another group of cells use {{S-text}}? (I still think this is usually used as a header, like at Liverpool Street station. If there isn't anything wrong with using {{S-rail}} in the middle of a table…) Jc86035 (talk) Use {{re|Jc86035}}
