/*

== Heading formatter ==

This script adds a tab to fix some formatting in the article.  When you press the tab, it adds whitespace to space headings the way they are when you press the '''+''' button on a talk page, and it also removes extra newlines in the article.

Then it adds an edit summary and presses ''Show changes'' for you so you can check it for mistakes.
