Template:Plainlist/doc

Usage

{{Plainlist}} starts a plain, or unbulleted, list, such as:

• • cat
  • dog
  • horse
  • cow
  • sheep
  • pig

It uses proper HTML list markup, which is more standards-compliant and more accessible than separating list items with <br></br>. Detailed reasons for using this template can be found at WP:UBLIST.

This template can be used with or without {{endplainlist}}. It is an alternative to {{Unbulleted list}}, which performs the same function in a more concise but less wiki-style manner.

Examples

{{Plainlist |
* [[cat]]
* [[dog]]
* [[horse]]
* [[cow]]
* [[sheep]]
* [[pig]]
}}

• • cat
  • dog
  • horse
  • cow
  • sheep
  • pig

Parameters

• class – adds a CSS class to the containing div.
• style – adds CSS style options. Complex styles should not be used in articles (per wp:deviations) but may be acceptable on user, project, and talk pages.

Example: |style=border:solid 1px silver; background:lightyellow

• indent – indents the list by a number of standard indents (one indent being 1.6em), particularly handy for inclusion in an indented discussion thread.

Example: |indent=2
