Can you please teach me how to put a new content section in any article page, you know, like an Errors section or Spoilers in an article that doesn't have one, one that is not an episode page to be precise, or a names section, or an eye color and a hair color section on a character profile on a character page? | Can you please teach me how to put a new content section in any article page, you know, like an Errors section or Spoilers in an article that doesn't have one, one that is not an episode page to be precise, or a names section, or an eye color and a hair color section on a character profile on a character page? {{unsigned|Magicalgirlkat}} | ||
:Hi! First of all, thanks for being a contributor on Bulbapedia. Happy to have you! Adding {{DL|Help:Wikicode|sections}} to articles is pretty simple. Just add <code><nowiki>== Section title ==</nowiki></code> in the spot you want the section to be and put the text for that section below it. If you'd like to make a subsection of an existing section, just add an extra equals signs on each side i.e. <code><nowiki>=== Subsection title ===</nowiki></code>, placing the subsection below the section you want it to be part of. If you add another equals sign to each side, you'll make it a subsection of a subsection, and so on. | |||
:If you'd like to try it out, you can use the preview button (next to the Save Page button) to see if it worked before saving changes. Or on mobile, it will automatically generate a preview, and you can press the back button on the top left to go back and make additional adjustments. Once you think you've got it right, just save the changes to publish them to the site. You can also experiment over at the community {{bp|sandbox}} in order to test and figure out the code and more complex things such as tables, without needing to edit any actual articles. | |||
