General Engineering Tutorials/Best Practice

Organize tutorials into a header describing audience, starting point, and replication goal followed by procedure, steps; procedure steps; procedure steps.

Procedures should be named, not numbered. Steps should be numbered with #. This way they can be easily edited, copied and reused.

Directly under procedure should be a horizontal row of pictures (created using gallery) with un-numbered steps in their captions, followed by text descriptions of the steps without referencing the pictures.
