| Please ''do not'' use only one equals sign on a side ({{xt|<nowiki>=Heading=</nowiki>}}). This would cause a section heading to be as large as the page's name (title). The maximum number of equals signs is six.
| |
|
| |
|
| Heading names of sections (including subsections) should be unique on a page. Using the same heading more than once on a page causes problems:
| |
| * An [[Help:Wikilinks|internal link (wikilink)]] to a section, in the form {{xt|<nowiki>[[Article name#Section heading]]</nowiki>}}, will only link to the first section on the page with that name, which may not be the intended target of the link. See also [[WP:Linking#Linking to sections of articles|Linking to sections of articles]].
| |
| * When a section with a duplicate name is edited, the edit history and summary will be ambiguous as to which section was edited.
| |
| * When saving the page after a section edit, the editor's browser may navigate to the wrong section.
| |
|
| |
| ===Numbering===
| |
| For registered users who use the preference setting [[Help:Preferences#Misc settings|Auto-number headings]], sections are numbered in the table of contents and at beginning of each section heading.
| |
|
| |
| === Sorting order ===
| |
| For the ordering of (appendix & footer) sections see: [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Layout#Order of sections]].
