Table
The table is divided to the following columns on the list above:
Ordering – allows you to change the ordering of the categories.

Author – a contestant (user) who has submitted the entry form for competition.
Created Date – sorting by created date of the entry.
Votes - the count of votes for entry.
Approved - determines the state of the approval. After the submission the form the entry can get the "Unapproved" status (depends on component settings). It is displayed in the contest after approval only. See the document Approving entry.
Changed - determines the state of the entry. If a contestant (user) changes anything in entry form then the entry automatically gets the "Changed" status. But changes may not come into effect unless they are confirmed (depends on component settings). See the document Entry Data Comparison.
