Your driftwood sample section is nice but on mobile it is a bit messed up due to the auction tracker taking so much real estate.
Unfortunately, that section is inside a wiki template, and a table would require using another template ... but our wiki doesn't let you have a template inside a template (in this case, a table inside an "Itembox" template).

Also, different screen sizes can position things differently (eg. on my phone everything looks fine). However, I changed the styling and text a bit, so it should look better now.

The cleanest example I've seen (could be a bit more minimalist) is the tables Frantz256255 did at the bottom of some mob pages. If everyone did a table it would be chaos but as a tally it pretty complete. A nice table for stuff like the goblin ring submissions would probably be the cleanest way to implement this.
Yeah, he was able to use a table because he put it outside of the template, at the bottom of the page. The Driftwood Chest page (or any other) could be redone that way, but it might not look as good at the bottom (and people might miss it).

In theory, I think the best solution would be to add a bunch of new fields to the "Itembox" template, and then if those fields are present have the template add a table itself. It probably wouldn't be that hard (the existing template is very simple) ... but I have other wiki projects at the moment, so I'll leave that as a project for someone else.

I think a forum admin worked a script to scrape logs for all the drop data as a project for the wiki but not sure what happened to that.
I thought I heard about a log parser awhile back, but it was just from a regular player, for personal log parsing. I hadn't heard of any effort to collect people's data for the wiki (although that'd be cool!)
