It's hard to tell from those links. The stakes are super important. You want long wide thick stakes that will last a long time in wet soil, hold well, and you want a bajillion of them. (You don't want plastic stakes, nor stapley things.)
Later today I'm going to be redoing some poorly installed edging. If you want to do it well, scrape everything down on either side of the line and tamp it down. (You can do that by hand but if you can rent a plate compactor that's better.) lay down loose soil, install he edgingt, add soil, tamp, add soil, tamp.
If you do put down landscape fabric, go deep. Tamp, lay it down, cover, tamp. Otherwise it will quickly float to the surface in places, get exposed to UV light, and start to tear.
