Technical use
To create a level 2 headline, simply put two = signs around the text you wish to headline, at the beginning of a line, or, alternatively, choose a heading using the Headline dropdown in the toolbar. Level 1 headlines are the same style of the article title, and should be avoided in any case.
Sub-headlines are created with 3 = signs, and so on. In the table of contents, the hierarchy of the sections will be displayed in accordance to the headlines; level 2 headlines will be displayed as 1, 2, 3, etc., while level 3 headlines as 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, and so on.
Use in the Twinsuniverse
For the common layout and arrangement of the articles in the Twinsuniverse, see Twinsuniverse:Articles layout.
In addition to the common headlines, you may always use level 3 headlines to divide each section into sub-sections. For example, the Description section may contain sub-sections like History, Development, etc. See School of Magic for an example of a level 3 headlines use.
