    Default

    If you have three or more section headings in an article, MW will automatically create a table of contents. Section headings are those with wikitext using equal sign ( = ) delimiters like:
    Code:
    ==Header==
    ...text...
    
    ===Subheader===
    ...text...
    ====Another subheader====
    ...text...
    If there are fewer than three, you can force the table of contents to show with
    Code:
    __TOC__
    As far as the other boxes - they are typically templates such as infoboxes. You can make these with bordered tables or bordered <div>s. If you search these forums for "infobox", you'll find lots of posts on how to import and use them.

    Default

    The Table of Contents (TOC) is automatically shown once there are four or more headings in the article and the default location is on the left side.

    To have the TOC appear on the right side you need to create a template called TOCright and use that template to articles where you want the TOC to appear on the right side.

    The boxes that contains picture and tables are infoboxes.
