Level 2 heading

Headings organize your writing into sections. The Wiki software can automatically generate a table of contents from them.

Level 3 heading

Using more equals signs creates a subsection.

Don't skip levels, like from two to four equals signs.

Start with 2 equals signs not 1 because 1 creates H1 tags which should be reserved for page title.
