{{TOC right}} forces the auto-generated Table of Contents for an article to appear floated to the right side of the page, in order to improve article layout; {{TOC left}} is the equivalent template to float the TOC to the left.
Usage
- Insert
{{TOC left}}
at the point in the article where you want the top of the Table of Contents box to appear. This should usually be after the text of the lead section, and just before the first section heading, in accordance with MOS:LEADELEMENTS. Use with {{-}} or {{clear}} to prevent collision with text; use the clear parameter (see below) to prevent collision with images.
- Avoid placing the TOC in a visually poor location. Crossing a section division is probably a poor idea.
Note
Unlike Wikipedia, which uses TemplateStyles, the SL Wiki already included a reasonably good 'hacked' {{TOC}} template, and {{TOC left}} only redirects it (probably badly).[1]
