Additional requirements
The above template is only for the single-page version of the template. The version of the template that can be used to make multiple pages in a series is Template:Intro to.
/#: Each page in the series should be saved as a numbered subpage, e.g.Help:Introduction_to_x/1. The template automatically links to the next numbered subpage. If the next numbered subpage doesn't exist, it links back to Help:Getting started/tabs: You must also create a/tabspage to contain the information for the left hand tab bar (See Template:Intro to/tabs for details)/base: You may additionally create a/basepage to contain a consistent bottom section to be shown on all pages in the series (See Template:Intro to/base for details)
