Create '''bulleted lists''' with asterisks (<code>*</code>):

* Item 1

* Item 3

</pre>

* Item 1

* Item 2

** Item 2b

* Item 3

 

=== Numbered Lists ===

Create '''numbered lists''' with number signs (<code>#</code>):

 

<pre style="white-space:pre-wrap; width:150px">

# Item 1

# Item 3

</pre>

# Item 1

# Item 2

## Item 2b

# Item 3

 

=== Description Lists ===

A '''description list''' is a list of bold terms, each followed by one or more lines of indented normal text. To create a description list, place each term on a new line and precede it with a semicolon (<code>;</code>). The following description is then preceded with a colon (<code>:</code>). Use multiple lines if desired. Do not use a semicolon simply to make something bold!

 

<pre style="white-space:pre-wrap; width:150px">

;Item 1

: description 2

</pre>

;Item 1

: description 1a

;Item 2

: description 2

;Username and timestamp

: Use four tildas (<code><nowiki>~~~~</nowiki></code>) to automatically leave your username and a timestamp. Use this on article discussion pages.

;Columns

: Use the {{t|columns}} template to create columns. Use <code><nowiki>{{columns|count=N|TEXT}}</nowiki></code>, where "N" is the desired number of columns and "TEXT" is the content to be split up into columns.
