Tables of Contents
MediaWiki adds a table of contents at the top of the page when you have four or more headers.
To change this behavior, at the top of the page, add:
__NOTOC__ Hides the table of contents (TOC). __FORCETOC__ Forces the table of contents to appear at its normal position (before the first header). __TOC__ Places a table of contents at the word's current position (overriding __NOTOC__).
