To make HTML pages as helpful as possible and to provide a good direct accessibility not only to humans, but also (indirectly) to search engines, some structural outlines have evolved. Especially the Wikipedia community came up with a set of rules that are also applicable to other sites run by the MediaWiki software.
General rules
- Wiki pages contain one <h1> heading dedicated to the lemma (title, page name) which is provided by the wiki software itself
- The introductory section of each page starts directly under h1 (without a subheading like "Introduction" or "Definition").
- Headings within the page should start at <h2>
- A good article structure tries to avoid single children in terms of subsections.
A concluding request
If you have a problem with the visual appearance of headings (fonts/font sizes), please don't try to fix it case by case using inline HTML, but let us know so we can work out a way to fix it together via CSS! Thanks 😊
