Thanks for the suggestions, a few random bits:


 * wikia markup automatically substitutes deprecated width to css width. I verified this last night when I stayed up way too late. So while I hear your message, and I will take it to heart for myself, I don't feel it necessary to evangelize to my contributors. We're a growing Wiki and, at least for right now, I'd rather spend my time cleaning up stuff like this than harp on others about doing it and then lose them for being overly critical.
 * I understand regarding infobox & wikitable. You're saying that adding style="float : right;" will make infobox moot and prevent css conflicts (even if none are happening now, preventing any that might occur in the future if either infobox or wikitable are changed.) However, removal of infobox does not resolve the issue I'm trying to get resolved. As I noted in the talk page.
 * Removing the padding introduces it's own issue, so I can't adopt that proposal. Removal of padding can cause the border of the wikitable to be unexpectedly/uncomfortable near the contents of the table. That's the whole reason we like padding to start with.

No, I'm more or less resigned to living with it, since the problem seems to occur only in Chrome and MSIE, and at least in Chrome where I can easily test CSS and evaluate "Metric" to see how Chrome is rendering things it's pretty clear that Chrome is rendering the padding-right outside of the border instead of inside the border like it should.

Nonetheless, let me end with my deep appreciation for your earlier assistance and I promise, at some point down the road, I will start evangelizing about deprecated HTML5 features to my contributors (but only after we've grown sufficiently large.)
