===Sections===
 
Sections in a page will follow the page's [[wikipedia:WP:LEAD|lead/introduction]], and under certain conditions, the [[wikipedia:WP:TOC|table of contents]].
 
====Section headings====
Line 31:
 
====Horizontal rule====
{{see|wikipedia:WP:LINE}}
 
The horizontal rule represents a paragraph-level thematic break. Do not use in article content, as rules are used only after main sections, and this is automatic.
Line 44:
 
====Table of contents====
{{see|wikipedia:WP:TOC}}
 
When a page has at least four headings, a table of contents (TOC) will automatically appear after the lead and before the first heading. The TOC can be controlled by magic words or templates:

===Indent text===
{{see|wikipedia:WP:INDENT}}
 
Indentation is most commonly used on talk pages.
Line 871:
 
* The part after the hash sign (#) must match a [[Section_editing#Creation_and_numbering_of_sections|section heading]] on the page. Matches must be exact in terms of spelling, case, and punctuation. Links to non-existent sections are not broken; they are treated as links to the beginning of the page.
* Include "| link title" to create a stylish ([[wikipedia:WP:Piping|piped]]) link title.
* If sections have the same title, add a number to link to any but the first. [[#Example section 3]] goes to the third section named "Example section". You can use the pipe and retype the section title to display the text without the # symbol.
 
Line 1,050:
===Categories===
 
* To put an article in a [[Wikipedia:Categorization|category]], place a link like <code><nowiki>[[Category:Example]]</nowiki></code> into the article. As with interlanguage links, placing these links at [[wikipedia:WP:FOOTERS|the end of the article]] is recommended.
* To link to a category page without putting the article into the category, use a colon prefix (":Category") in the link.

See the Wikipedia's [[Wikipedia:Image use policy|image use policy]] for the policy used on Wikipedia.

* This should be used very sparingly, thumb images are always of the same width.
* There is an [[#upright tag|''upright'' attribute]] that can be used to display tall images. These tags are optimised for both laptop and mobile phone screens.
Line 1,530:
 
'''[[Help:Template|Templates]]''' are segments of wiki markup that are meant to be copied automatically ("transcluded") into a page.
They are specified by putting the template's name in <nowiki>{{double braces}}</nowiki>. Most templates are pages in the [[wikipedia:WP:Template namespace|Template namespace]], but it is possible to transclude mainspace pages (articles) by using <nowiki>{{:colon and double braces}}</nowiki>.
 
There are three pairs of [[html element|tags]] that can be used in [[wikitext]] to control how transclusion affects parts of a template or article.

In order for the software to interpret wiki markup, its parser first scans the page. When it sees its nowiki tags

The rest of the section consists of simple, live examples showing how a single nowiki tag escapes entire linkage structures, beyond [[&nbsp;wikilink&nbsp;<nowiki />]] and {{&nbsp;template&nbsp;<nowiki />}}:

===Pre===

{{tag|pre|o}} is a parser tag that emulates the HTML {{tag|pre|o}} tag. It defines preformatted text that is displayed in a fixed-width font and is enclosed in a dashed box. HTML and wiki markups are escaped and spaces and line breaks are preserved, but HTML entities are parsed.
