'''Note:''' {{NOTE}} In general, the References section is the very last section of each article. This is an exception to the rule, because the categories are shown below the article itself. You simply assign categories to your article by using the same formatting as with normal internal article links, using double square brackets. Here is an example:
[[Category:Victorian doctor]]
→Categories: added text
The very first paragraph of an article is the heading. The Heading has no headline, because the title of the article itself is the heading's headline. Here you should place a brief description. The description should be no shorter than two sentences, and no longer than six sentences. If you can, cite where the information for this description came from. If the information in the description is absolute common knowledge, that is the only time you may omit a citation. If the information could be considered biased (or difficult to believe), a citation must be added.<ref>this is the first citation</ref>
'''Note:''' [[Help:Editing/Basic structure/Article skeleton|You find a copy template here.]]
== First section ==
Here's where you start placing content that isn't part of the heading. Make a section headline by placing equals signs on both sides of the title of this new section. Only information related to this section is to be placed here. If you have other information, make a new section below. All information placed in these sections must be sourced (a citation must be added).<ref>this citation is for the first category</ref>
Example:
== First section ==
'''Note:''' By convention the headline should be capitalized in '''sentence-style capitalization''', where the first word is capitalized and the rest of the words are lowercase, unless they are proper nouns or proper adjectives. '''Please don't use title-style capitalization here.'''

== First Section ==
Good:

== Second section ==
=== Sub section ===
=== Sub section ===
As an example, we'll place a sub section here. If you click edit (next to this section), you'll notice that sub categories have '''three''' equals signs on each side of the sub section title.<ref>sub section citation</ref> You'll also notice that not only does the title of a sub section look somewhat different (smaller font), but the sub section index at the top of the page also reflects the new hierarchy.
==== A sub sub section ====
==== A sub sub section ====You can create a deeper 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>sub sub section citation</ref>
== External links ==
This is a special section which should always be the '''last but one section ''' in an article, if used at all. Here you collect links to external information, which is not part of the IntactiWiki. In the IntactiWiki, please use the [[:Template:LINKS]] instead, which simply outputs the required section headline (External links) (which avoids variants of the spelling and wording). So you just type '''<nowiki>{{LINKS}}</nowiki>''' at the beginning of a line.
* [http://en.wikipedia.org Link to the English Wikipedia] which is an external link for IntactiWiki
* [http://www.google.com Google]
== References ==
This special section should always be the '''very last section ''' of an article. It automatically collects and formats all references noted in the article. Therefore, the References section needs a special tag '''<nowiki><references/></nowiki>'''. In the IntactiWiki, please use the [[:Template:REF]] instead, which simply outputs the two required lines: the section headline (References) plus the references tag. So you just type '''<nowiki>{{REF}}</nowiki>''' at the beginning of a line.
<references/>
== Categories ==
<pre>[[Category:MyTest]]</pre>
You can create any category as you like to, but you may want to [[Special:Categories|check out existing categories]] first, to avoid duplicates and nonsense categories. If a category has no category heading text already, it will be shown in red, like our example does. Some templates bring along categories which are also collected at the footer area of an article.
[[Category:MyTest]]
We recommend to use a contributor-defined hierarchy when assigning categories to articles.
Each categorized page should be placed in all of the '''most specific categories''' to which it logically belongs. This means that if a page belongs to a subcategory of C (or a subcategory of a subcategory of C, and so on) then it is '''not''' normally placed directly into C. (See {{W|Categorization#Categorizing_pages}})
'''Example:''' Please assign all articles about circumcision complications to the [[:Category:Circumcision complication]] but not to [[:Category:Complication]] which as a parent category should only collect categories and articles which do refer to complications in general.
Source-related categories like [[:Category:From IntactWiki]] should always be placed at the very bottom of the list of categories, sorted alphabetically.
<pre>[[Category:Person]]
[[Category:Male]]
[[Category:Deceased]]
[[Category:Author]]
[[Category:Intactivist]]
[[Category:Victorian doctor]]
[[Category:Italy]]
[[Category:USA]]
[[Category:From IntactWiki]]
[[Category:ERROR URL]]</pre>
