Template:TOCright/doc

{{TOCright}} forces the auto-generated Table of Contents for an article to appear floated to the right side of the page, in order to improve article layout.

Usage

Insert {{TOCright}} at the point in the article where you want the top of the Table of Contents box to appear. This should usually be after the text of the lead section, and just before the first section heading. Use with {{-}} or {{clear}} to prevent collision with text; use the clear parameter (see below) to prevent collision with images.

• Avoid placing the TOC in a visually poor location. Crossing a section division is probably a poor idea.

Do not place this template so that the TOC aligns with a large image or infobox; this breaks the layout on narrow screens (even users with screens as wide as 1024px wide can have problems). Also, a TOC that crosses a section division is probably a poor idea, if that can be avoided.

Unless the section in which the {{TOCright}} is placed is long enough, the result may well be undesirable.

It should only be used in cases where the TOC gets in the way of other content or is detrimental to the layout of the page; it should not simply be used for aesthetics since it tampers with the standard appearance of articles. See Help:Section#Floating the TOC for further guidelines.

Limitations

Since the Vector 2022 skin forces the table of contents into a sidebar or a pop-up menu, this template does not control the placement of the TOC in that skin.
