Overview Table Suggestion[]

Hello. I found the bare list of civics somewhat lacking in terms of having a quick overview, so I made a small table of the Ancient Era(edit: also Classical) civics as an example of what I'd like to have available in terms of using the wiki. If this list looked more like this table, it could be a great central place to see most relevant civic information at once.

Before editing a semi-major article page, or expanding the table to the entire civics tree, I thought it would be best to discuss this first. Is this a good idea? Should we replace the existing list with such a table? Is my table in line with this wiki's style guidelines? Should we expand this table to cover all civics, or should we have separate tables per era? Is a table the best option for presenting this information, or should we use something else? Should this table replace the current list, or merely add to the page as an alternative presentation?

Please leave your thoughts on this topic below this paragraph, and sign your edits so we can keep track of the discussion. Thank you for reading my suggestion.

P.S.: I also noticed there is no information for the civic prerequisites on the current article page at all. Should that information be present on the article page? edit: I have added the civics these civics lead to.
