What Wilks measures

Wilks adjusts a lifter's total for bodyweight so lifters in different weight classes can be compared on one scale. It was the standard coefficient in powerlifting for decades. Many federations have since moved to DOTS or IPF GL, but Wilks is still widely quoted and used by some meets.

How the score is computed

Wilks multiplies your total by a coefficient derived from your bodyweight and sex. The formula here is the original Wilks and matches the values OpenPowerlifting publishes, checked against the stored score on every entry in the dataset.
