Tables
Constructing tables here!
Trying to create good looking tables! ...You know, for the articles; but they need to reach perfection somewhere. If YOU feel like it, you can create a table here too, so that everyone can learn, including yourself. You can experiment on this page all day long - just leave your name as the title of the table, so that it'll be more organized.
To do such a thing, you would need to do something like this:
{| class="standard-table"
|+ your name goes here
!Header
|-
|Table
|}
For example:
| This will be a header | This will be a header2 | This will be a header3 |
|---|---|---|
| Column1; Row1 | Column2; Row1 | |
| Column 1; Row 2&3 | Column3; Row2 | |
| Column2; Row3 | Column3; Row3 |

Destroyed
The Aesthetics of Portal 2This Portal 2 aesthetic theme is displayed during the beginning of the single player campaign, in the Aperture Laboratories chambers closest to the earth's surface. It is characterized by rusted, decayed, and moldy areas filled with debris, broken glass, swaying vegetation and cables. The lighting is harsher than other areas in the game, and has distant skylights through plants and wires which cast big shadows. Soundscapes include noises by crickets, cicadas and birds.
Level transitions are usually placed in elevators surrounded by plants, with debris floating through the tubes. Some test doors are broken or malfunctioning.
In-Depth
In the single-player campaign this will be the first theme the player will encounter, and consequently had been designed to be visually striking and to leave as big an impact as possible on the player. This theme is supposed to everything feels very organic. On that note, however, do not confuse this with being dynamic; the player must get the feeling that everything is dying if not already dead, that this is the end, and that they are in solitude.
