Using Dashes instead of Sections
I noticed on Australian Institute of Landscape Architects you hyphons (--) instead of section headings (==). Section headings are much better than hyphons becuase the MediaWiki software recongizes them and is able to create a table of contents from them (a table of contents will appear if there are 4 or more headings). Section headings get lower as you add more equal signs. For example a Level 1 heading is one equal sign like this =A Heading, a level two section is like this ==A heading==. Because the MediaWiki software uses a Level 1 heading for the title of every page it is best to start out with level 2 headings and go down from there. For more about editing read the welcome template which I am substituting below. -- Nn123645 (talk) 16:19, 22 December 2007 (UTC)
