You can copy/paste from an Excel file into an HTML/wikitext table &mdash; just not all at once. What you have to do is first set up the basic code for a table. In this example, I will be using a table with 2 rows and 3 columns.

Next you could copy/paste data one-by-one from each cell of the Excel file into the table. Note that if you have a large table with many cells, this process will be very time-consuming!

And when you're done the result would be a table:

Like I mentioned above, this will take a lot of time if you have a large table. But it is one of the most basic, straight-forward ways to create a table on a wiki.

If you have a very large table, techie people have shortcuts for quickly making a table out of it. If someone else working on your language project team with you has data-entry experience, giving this task to them would make sense.

If you don't know anybody else who can do it &mdash; come back to this thread once you have access to your Excel file. If you can copy/paste the entire Excel table onto a test page on your wiki (no matter how messy it looks) and give us a link to that page so that we can look at the data, we might be able to suggest an alternative solution for what you want to accomplish.
