Formatting

Here are my suggestions for improved formatting:

• Literals: UI items should be bold, or bold+italic). Bold stands out better than italic alone
• Links: brighter blue to help them stand out
• Indent text/headings under ==heading 2== to better separate sections.
• Increase size of ==heading 2== to make it more separate from ===heading 3===
• Add a bar/background color to headings
• Left align when possible

Consistency and Simplification

Recommendations for consistent formatting:

• One =heading 1= per page, as recommended in the Mediawiki documentation
• Describe UI items/options with a clear separation between the word and the description
  • Term on its own line, and the descriptions on next line, indented
  • Not bulleted. Visually interferes with the word itself, and is consistent with most of the manual and other manuals
• Bullets are only for examples/lists of things
• Numbered lists for explanation of steps
• Tables are for larger lists with descriptions
• Use logical heading nesting

Recommendations for simplification:

• Omit unnecessary sub-headings, like ==Description==. (It should be assumed that what is written is a description).
• Avoid being verbose. Be concise.
• Don't include unnecessary images
• Remove "mode" from ref boxes, unless necessary
