For an actual tour, you can use one option for all steps (simplest), or use different options for different steps.

Gettingstarted tour code walkthrough
This is a walkthrough of a simplified version of the gettingstarted tour, if it were written as an on-wiki tour. It covers more advanced features not described above:
