It seems to me that this article should be renamed "64th Cannes Film Festival" as it is refered to by edition number rather than year on the current official website;

[3]
Official posters from the last two years also use edition number rather than year in the title;

What do others think?

A couple of tables for the top 2 sections (Competition and Un Certain Regard) would be fine. The rest however doesn;t have to be all tabled. It bloats the page unecessarily and doesn't help very much in any practical way I can imagine. Is the sorting function so important to justify table format? A list folded in two columns takes up a minimal space and is very friendly to smaller width screens. I mean, use an 800px screen and see what happens. Multiple cells break in several lines, making the whole page much much longer. One looses the sense of what one is looking at. Scrolling and scrolling when a list would have it all available in a minimal length. Just compare this page on a smaller screen with the 2006 Cannes Film Festival. Can we please agree on a restrained use of tables in such awards pages? Thank you. Hoverfish Talk 15:11, 28 July 2017 (UTC)
I have no problem removing the highlighter formatting from the lists. The rest is very incosiderate for anyone that doesn't have a wide screen. I am well aware of the other film festivals. In some cases the total table width is limited in % just to fit an image to the right of it. Try this in a small screen. The image goes under the table and the table width remains limited, squeezing everything even more. I am trying to keep as much of the "de-facto standard", but some mistakes have to go for all these articles. What is a section called "Key"? Is there anything in MOS that permits for such an invention? A key has to go under the table, not have a section of its own. So fine, no highlights in lists and everything in sortable tables. I can go with this, even though I think it's inconsiderate towards many users. But if the sorting is left half finished or not done, then this function remains practically useless for the reader. If something must be considered de-facto standard, it'd better be a correct practice. Hoverfish Talk 18:36, 28 July 2017 (UTC)
