 This wiki comes with some unique notation for expressing ideas.
 * Inline expandables
-** A block of text, sometimes in the middle of a sentence{{x|this is an example of an inline expandable!}}, to provide important nuances without ruining the flow{{x|or overwhelming the reader with walls of text upfront}}.
+** A block of text, sometimes in the middle of a sentence{{x|This is an example of an inline expandable!}}, to provide important nuances without ruining the flow{{x|or overwhelming the reader with big walls of text upfront}}.
 * Popup notes
-** Similar to above, but used in tables or when the note has multiple lines.{{p|This is an example of a popup note!}}
+** Similar to above, but used in tables or when the note has multiple lines.{{p|This is an example of a popup note!<br /><small>(btw it doesn't ''have to'' have multiple lines)</small>}}
 * Green links
 ** These also generate {{p2|popups|This is another example.}}.
+* Calculations
+** Math is sometimes needed to illustrate a point. We like to do real-world estimates of things, to see if an idea is [[Term:viable|viable]] or not. The equations might look a little cryptic, but you can usually click on different parts to see the numbers and where they came from.<!-- TODO: add a popup calculation called "(example)" -->
+* Tabs
+** For grouping multiple similar pieces of content.
+* Links that start with the '/' character
+** These are links to ''subpages'' of the current page. Subpages are used for deeper analysis, or for focusing on a specific part of the world. {{x|Subpages could even provide alternative versions of the same page ("/alt") in case people have a hard time finding full consensus on what should be on a particular page.}}
 * Links that start with the '#' character
 ** These are not hashtags. These are links to ''sections'' of the current page.
-* Links that start with the '/' character

-* Calculations
+JavaScript is needed for expandables, popups, and calculations. These also don't with screen readers unfortunately - [[Project:Expandables/Feature_requests|yet]].

-<!-- TODO: think of a simple example calculation and add it here. Doesn't have to be inside the bullet list. -->
