Most articles actually need very little '''text formatting'''.

Most articles actually need little '''text formatting'''. All formatting is achieved by placing symbols either side of text. You can either type it manually, or add it through the toolbar at the top of the editing area.▼

Headings and subheadings can be added by clicking {{menu icon|Advanced|left}} then {{menu icon|
Selecting "Level 2" will format text as a main heading, the most frequently used subdivision of any page.
<br>"Level 3" gives you a subheading for a Level 2 heading, and so on.
<br>To create a heading without using the toolbar, put text between <code><nowiki>=</nowiki></code> signs; the number of {{code|1==}} signs on each side of the text indicates the level:
<br><code><nowiki>==Heading==</nowiki></code> (Level 2)
<br><code><nowiki>===Subheading===</nowiki></code> (Level 3)
Text can be made '''bold''' or ''italic'' using the {{menu icon|'''B'''|non}} and {{menu icon|'''''{{mono|I}}'''''|non}} buttons on the toolbar.
<br>To create bold or italics without using the toolbar, put text between <code><nowiki>'</nowiki></code> apostrophes; three on each side for bold, or two on each side for italics.
<br><code><nowiki>'''bold'''</nowiki></code>
<br><code><nowiki>''italic''</nowiki></code>
<br>An article's subject should always be written in bold the first time it is mentioned, but not thereafter. For detailed guidance on how and where bold and italic text should be used, see the Manual of Style sections on [[MOS:BOLD|bold]] and [[MOS:ITALIC|italic]] formatting.
