Cascading Style Sheets allows for flexible formatting of a page. They should be used instead of tables for non-tabular content whenever possible, because they can be manipulated by the reader or overridden by an author if your CSS is embedded in another page via a template.
Wiki headings
Wiki headings use the following default CSS:
