This style for Lua-based is meant to build group and league tables for competitions with a win-loss format decided either in regular time or in overtime/shootout. Note that this module is used extensively, so test potential changes rigorously in the sandbox and please ensure consensus exists before implementing major changes. The rest of this documentation explains how to use this module with the WL OT style in an article or template, check the table of contents for specific items.
In its simplest form only several parameters need to be used to build a table

The main command is the {{#invoke:Sports table|main|style=WL OT}} statement which basically calls the module and enables you to set everything up. Then you list the positions of the teams as,, etc for however many teams you need in the table. You can use full team names there without spaces if you want, but using codes (as in the example) can make it easier. For each team you now define the wins, OT wins, OT losses, losses, goals for and goals against by using,,,, and respectively (with TTT replaced by the team code). If you do not define these numbers, it is automatically assumed to be 0. It is good practice though to include them anyway and to align the columns using appropriate spaces (as in the example), so the code is easy to read. The last step now is to define the parameters which determine what name is shown in the table, you can use wiki markup and templates in here as well. See
