  • Template:Fake heading/styles.css[e]

Usage

This template is used to create examples of section heading wiki markup in help and similar pages and should NOT be used in articles. Fake headings do not appear in the table of contents. They are styled to appear the same as the default heading styles in the Vector skin, and will not be influenced by custom CSS or skins.

Parameters

  • |level= or |sub= is the level number: valid values are 1 through 6. The default is 2, equivalent of a == Main heading ==. Level 1 is usually reserved for the page's title.
  • An unnamed parameter (which can also be specified as |1=) is used for the section title.
