Emphasis in Type

Sometimes you need your words to pop in order to place emphasis on them. For the most part, these tools should be used sparingly. After all, if everything is emphasized, nothing is. And your article looks like crap.

Essential/Non-essential headers

If you are writing a particularly long article and/or an article required for Basic NET training, you may want to indicate some sections as "essential" reading and other sections as "supplemental". This is not a trick with text so much as it's a very small table that sits on top of a page section. For an example in context, see: Basic NET Class Goals.

NETwiki standard:

• "Essential" should be a single line table in "firebrick" red, spanning 25% of the page, white bold text.
• "Supplemental" should be a single line table in "gold", spanning 25% of the page, white bold text.

Section Importance: Essential

{|class="wikitable" style="width: 25%; "
|+
| style="background: firebrick; color: white" |'''Section Importance: Essential'''
|}

Section Importance: Supplemental

{| class="wikitable" style="width: 25%; 
|+
|style="background: gold; color: black"|'''Section Importance: Supplemental'''
|}
