Although they shouldn't be used for every line, I think using subheads is good. As an encyclopedia is made to find information, I think this should be made easier. Even for small articles, I find it convenient if there's a heading indicating in which part of the article I may find a short history, a collection of external links, or a simple example, or the specific detail I'm looking for. Also, subheads can help making it clear for a writer what he's writing about in that part of the article. jheijmans
