MoS
No problem being a newb, we all were at one point! And I really need to start linking MoS when I do edits, 'cause people always ask what I'm talking about; trust me you're not the first one! :) Anyway, MoS stands for Manual of Style, the basic guide to style conventions on Wikipedia. In the article in question, what I did was remove the heading. All WP articles have the lead section (WP:LEAD). These by convention do not have a heading; the Table of Contents goes after for all headings. Hope I helped, and hope to see you around.
