Table of Contents
By default, MediaWiki will only display a table of contents if there are more than five headings. To force a page with less headings to have a table of contents, you can use:
__TOC__
To get the table of contents to float to the right side of the page use:
{|align=right
|__TOC__
|}
Including a page in another page
Using transclusion, you can include a page inside another page.
{{:The page name}}
Showing an example of wiki text
MediaWiki always interprets wiki text unless you tell it not by surrounding the text with the <nowiki> tag.
