== First category ==Here's where you start placing content that isn't part of the header. Make a category by placing equals signs on both sides of the title of this new category (click edit next to this category to see how that works). Only information related to this category is to be placed here. If you have other information, make a new category below. All information placed in these categories must be sourced (a citation must be added).<ref>this citation is for the first category</ref> == Second category ==This is a new category, for new information not related to the above category. Make as many categories as needed (the more the better). Please avoid combining a lot of content into a single category, and split it up into more than one category, organized by the content.<ref>this citation is for the second category</ref> == Multiple sources ==In this category, we'll add more than one citation. The first citation will be for this claim.<ref>source for first claim in the "Multiple sources" category</ref> The second citation will be for this claim.<ref>source for second claim in the "Multiple sources" category</ref> == How many categories? ==There should be at least 4 categories for every article (whenever possible). Even more categories are encouraged. Once you've created at least 4 categories, a category list will appear at the top of the article (under the header).<ref>this citation is for the "How many categories?" category</ref> === Sub category ===As an example, we'll place a sub category here. If you click edit (next to this category), you'll notice that sub categories have '''two''' equals signs on each side of the category title.<ref>sub category citation</ref> You'll also notice that not only does the title of a sub category look somewhat different (smaller font), but the sub category index at the top of the page also reflects the new hierarchy. ==== A deep sub category ====You can create a deep hierarchy by adding even more equals symbols. You'll notice that with every level, the title looks a bit different. At this level the horizontal line disappears.<ref>deep-sub category citation</ref> == Adding images ==To add an image, use the following. <PRE>[[Image:yourpicturefile.jpg|right|thumb|Put information about the picture here]]</PRE> == How to cite your sources ==Please visit [[Editing/Cite|this page]] to learn how to cite your sources. When you are done, come back here to finish the review. == Citations and references ==Read the numbered references below. Pick a couple, click the edit tab at the top of the page, then scroll down and try to find these references (don't use the find command you cheater!).
