If they are visibly involved as pictured, sections can be selectively taken from there. If end sections are not grossly involved, submit one perpendicular section, {{Moderate-begin}}every other perpendicular section{{Moderate-end}}, {{Comprehensive-begin}}or the entire end sections{{Comprehensive-end}}.]]
