For discussion
- Is there a usefulness and desire to create a more regular structure of “sub-sections” to our wiki entries?
- See Sherwood's example as a possibile guide Law of the Rights of Mother
- Template from example above entry-template
Basic Formatting
1. At the top of each page, give the title a heading level of one
====== Title of Page ======
2. Use succinct level 2 headlines to categorize major sections. exs.

Fancy Format - Boxes and Borders
It is possible to “WRAP” content with code that changes the way it is displayed. You'll see some paragraphs and sections visually set off on this wiki and my course pages in boxes with colorful borders. I'll share the code for some of these people, but we should discuss as a class whether and which to use. It won't contribute to overall coherence of the entries if we all use different visual markers. Be careful since each “box” has a pair of tags; you can easily “break” the box by omitting a closing tag or otherwise not “pairing” them. Also, some other formatting might not work when wrapped in a box.
