How to make custom table cell with repeating image pattern in Wikipedia?

My goal is to be able to make a table cell in Wikipedia have a hatch pattern instead of a solid color.

This is relatively easy to do in html since the background image you give an html table cell will tile to fill its space, you can just give it a pattern image.
