Article layout is to a large extent standardized on Avatar Wiki. Sections and their headings should largely be consistent across broadly similar categories of articles. In addition, all articles should have lead sections that summarize the subject of an article, unless otherwise stated, and the applicable infobox template if one exists.

In general, these sections should appear in this order if they are needed in an article:

History is always used for the background history of the article's subject. It must be the first heading. On event articles, it is the background that led to the actual event. Never name such sections anything else other than "History".
Trivia sections are permitted; they must always use this title to make this clear.
See also is always used for sections that include links to relevant articles.

The word "the" should never be used to start a heading e.g. "Battle" instead of "The Battle" unless it is the beginning of an episode name e.g. "The Puppetmaster".
