I don't think so because I recall reading it was a complex. But for now we should, it should be named its builder. (STD. lol) '''-[[User:TheJustinAllenK|TheJustinAllenK]] ([[User talk:TheJustinAllenK|talk]]) 22:39, 4 November 2011 (GMT)'''

These are companies that are presumably returning from the old eras. I tried to get as many as I could but I only could get six. '''-[[User:TheJustinAllenK|TheJustinAllenK]] ([[User talk:TheJustinAllenK|talk]])'''
== Change to table style? ==
This page as well as those similar seem to have a lot of unused space, and I thought the best way to redo these was to put the information into a table. I took the contents of this page and created a page that seems to reduce the empty space and organize the info into a convenient table. Here's the example using this page's information:

Thoughts? '''[[User:IanPhoenix|Ian Phoenix]]<sup>''[[User talk:IanPhoenix|talk]]''</sup>''' 03:15, 12 May 2013 (BST)
:I think the sortable table is a great idea. We should use it for all "Businesses in x" pages.--[[User:Hehe5|Hehe5]] ([[User talk:Hehe5|talk]]|[[Special:Contributions/Hehe5|edits]]) 06:16, 12 May 2013 (BST)
Tables are really great, I'm a big fan, but my concern is that this list would get too big to manage. When we have 1000 businesses here, the page will be hard to edit (especially for newer users) compared to the current format. We may end up with duplications (because the page code isn't sorted, just the output). Also, even if you can sort it by type of business, it will still mean a LOT of scrolling to find (say) Restaurants.
I think a better idea would be to have several tables - on different pages. So a list of restaurants, a list of shops etc. This page would link to all those sub-pages. We could even have an 'All Businesses' list that imports the others automatically into a massive sortable table, if that would be useful. What do you think?

:If it can be executed, I think it's a great idea. The only thing is creating a code that actually imports the list to this page. '''[[User:IanPhoenix|Ian Phoenix]]<sup>''[[User talk:IanPhoenix|talk]]''</sup>''' 00:41, 13 May 2013 (BST)
::That's easy, actually. Just make the table on each page, then put <code><nowiki><includeonly></includeonly></nowiki></code> around the actual table rows (excluding the <code><nowiki>{|</nowiki></code> parts). Then we can just include each list into the main list as if it were a template. Each list would then automatically provide its rows into one big overall sortable table.

::I've been working on the separate pages, and so far the main page just has links to each category, but I'm not familiar enough with wiki language/tools to execute combining the lists into the main page.
