This page provides the standards for headings and how to create them. There should be no need for a heading with the page's title since the page's name should be its title. For example, an page on DNA Technology should be named "DNA_Technology". Headings can be created in the visual editor ("Edit" tab top right of the page) using the dropdown menu in the top right of the visual editor.
There is no need to add numbering within a page; Mediawiki automatically creates the within page numbering.
A within-page table of contents such as the one below this paragraph is automatically created by Mediawiki when three or more headings of any level are created within a page.
