===Creating Sections===
If you are writing anything longer than a few paragraphs, there will be a good chance that it reads better if split into sections, and has a table of contents
If you split your page into sections, editing will be easier, as you can select to edit just one section (and any sub-sections), instead of using the '''Edit''' tab which shows the entire page in the editing window.
*All you need do is mark your headings appropriately.
**Only those with administrative access can edit this page, so standard users do not see an "Edit" tab for this page
*WikiText will then automatically create the sections, deal with all the formatting of headings, and make the page look good.
**If you create more than three sections, the Wiki will automatically generate a contents page
before your first heading.''
**If you want some text to be seen before the table of contents, don't use a heading before that text.
To force creation of a table of contents on the right hand side of the page (so letting the reader see your introductory text before this) use <nowiki>{{TOCright}}</nowiki> as this page does.
