TOC has vanished

Since recently no articles seem to have a TOC. The HTML for a page contains:

<meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" />

where I'd expect to see a TOC, but no content. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2.27.171.241 (talk) 13:23, 10 March 2023 (UTC)

Today (25th March 2023), the table of contents has reappeared! On desktop it appears in a separate scrolling section to the left of the document. I hope it is here to stay. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2.27.171.241 (talk) 16:02, 25 March 2023 (UTC)

I'm not seeing TOCs on any Wikipedia pages anymore - why? This is a degradation, IMHO. Thanks. Sullidav (talk) 13:23, 8 August 2023 (UTC)

@Sullidav: I see a TOC at the top of this page. However, this is not the page to report such problems (it is the talk page for discussing improvements to the page Help:Section), you should first try WP:HD, where I see an existing thread Wikipedia:Help desk#Missing TOC; failing that, try WP:VPT. In both cases, you should state which pages are affected, which skin and browser you are using, and whether there is any difference when you are logged out. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 14:30, 8 August 2023 (UTC)

@Redrose64 - Thanks. I do not see a TOC at the top of this page, so it's evidently some kind of browser/interface error. Glad it's not a Wikipedia change. Sullidav (talk) 19:24, 8 August 2023 (UTC)

Follow-up - I switched skins to an older one as that discussion suggests, but it looks like the issue was that I was used to seeing TOC at top of the page, not where it is now, in the left column below the Wikipedia menu. I think that's the only issue - that TOCs moved to a sort of hidden place. Sullidav (talk) 19:32, 8 August 2023 (UTC)

So you were using Vector-2022 skin, which is a pile of crap. But this is still the wrong venue to report such problems. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 19:35, 8 August 2023 (UTC)

TOC -> ToC

The acronym for Table of Contents (i.e., TOC), is correctly written as ToC and not as TOC, since we write the word of non-capitalized, the acronym should reflect that, as is true for all other acronyms of such sort. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 188.230.193.195 (talk) 11:19, 1 January 2024 (UTC)

Highlight information

At a certain point this request may simply violate the style standards of Wikipedia and the answer to it is 'read harder'. Further, the content I am requesting highlighted may not be important enough to justify.

That said, I feel the sentence "The maximum level number is six" is a particularly important one for those seeking Help:Section. I think some stylized emphasis would aid in quickly scanning the page.

Please change the unemphasized sentence "The maximum level number is six" to have some emphasized stylization. Tule-hog (talk) 23:44, 24 July 2024 (UTC)

 Not done for now: please establish a consensus for this alteration before using the {{Edit semi-protected}} template. DonIago (talk) 12:56, 25 July 2024 (UTC)

Is this talk page the right place to seek consensus for that edit? Tule-hog (talk) 21:49, 25 July 2024 (UTC)

You're looking for an edit to Help:Section. This is the Talk page for that Help page, so I would say so. DonIago (talk) 02:20, 26 July 2024 (UTC)
