Help:Lists
From Conservapedia
Lists are HTML constructs which are adapted in Wiki syntax thusly:
A bulleted (unordered) list is created by starting every newline (i.e. following a Return) with an asterisk (*):
* firstline
* second line
* third line
</nowiki>
produces:
- firstline
- second line
- third line
You can indent further:
* firstline
** second line
*** third line
* back in with the fourth line
** fifth line
* And back in with the sixth line
</nowiki>
producing:
- firstline
- second line
- third line
- back in with the fourth line
- fifth line
- And back in with the sixth line
Numbered (ordered) lists use the same procedure but with pound (hash) marks:
# firstline
# second line
# third line
</nowiki>
produces:
- firstline
- second line
- third line
You can indent further:
# firstline
## second line
### third line
# back in with the fourth line
## fifth line
# and back in with the sixth line
</nowiki>
producing:
- firstline
- second line
- third line
- back in with the fourth line
- fifth line
- And back in with the sixth line
The remaining type of list is a definition list, it uses semicolons (;) and colons (:):
;Scurvy:a disease caused by lack of vitamin C
produces:
- Scurvy
- a disease caused by lack of vitamin C
Note: this automatically bolds the wording before the colon and return/indents the wording after.
The types of list can be mixed, try them out.
