The | The Tenth Fleet Wiki '''Guide to Layout''' is an in-depth description about how to lay out an article. It is not a guide for [[Help:Editing|wiki markup]] or a [[TenthFleet:Manual of Style|Manual of Style]]; it is simply a summary of how to write a clean, simple, and well-organized article. | ||

Start your article by [[ | Start your article by [[TenthFleet:Follow highlighting conventions|strongly emphasizing]] the subject of your text. This serves to highlight what your article is about, making the subject as clear as possible for the reader's benefit. | ||
If the article is several paragraphs long (or more), it's best to keep the first paragraph as short and succinct as possible, with a clear explanation of what the article is about. However, do ''not'' title your introductory text with an "Introduction" or similarly-titled header. Leave the opening paragraph(s) without a header, so that the table of contents is generated after the introductory text. | If the article is several paragraphs long (or more), it's best to keep the first paragraph as short and succinct as possible, with a clear explanation of what the article is about.
