'''3F.''' At the bottom of "Edit Source" click the button that says "Show Preview." This button allows you to see the changes you made without saving the page. You should see something similar to the section below. As you can see, each section has the title with an underline at the top, and a link "Back to Top" at the bottom. All of our content, that we will add in later, will end up between the line and the "Back to Top" link.

'''3G.''' Repeat steps 2B through 2E with the rest of the sections. Below is an example of what it should look like once you've created our three sections: "Articles," "Announcements," and "Resources," in that order.
'''3G.''' Notice the brackets at the beginning (<nowiki>{{</nowiki>) and end (<nowiki>}}</nowiki>) of the text in step '''3C'''. These brackets are very important because the mark the beginning and end of the section. If you miss the brackets, then you will see a whole bunch of random text on the screen instead of the section. If you miss the brackets, you may see something like the text below, instead of the section in step '''3F'''.

Good work! You have successfully created 3 new sections on your wiki page! This stuff isn't easy, so take a second to give yourself a pat on the back :)
== 4. Add an article to the "Articles" section using [https://www.familysearch.org/en/wiki/Template:Kalispell_FHC_Article Kalispell FHC Article] template ==
Now that we have our sections, we can start adding our content to each of the sections. We are going to start with our first section "Articles" and add an article. I created light blue boxes for displaying articles. These boxes draw people's attention, but aren't too distracting.
For our example we have one article we want to add. The text for the article is below for reference:
