Introduction

Lists are a WikiText item similar to Headers, but used much less often. You can have bulleted, numbered, definition, indented, and mixed lists.

Types of Lists

Bulleted Lists

Bulleted lists are probably the most simple of the lists. To make them, type:

*Item
*Item
**Sub-item
***Sub-sub-item

You can continue adding more items and sub-items with more asterisks (*). This is what the code above looks like:

Numbered Lists

Like bulleted lists, number lists are also pretty simple. To make them, type:

#Item
#Item
##Sub-item
###Sub-sub-item

You can continue adding more items and sub-items with more hashtags (#). This is what the code above looks like:

  1. Item
  2. Item
    1. Sub-item
      1. Sub-sub-item

Definition Lists

Definition lists are harder than bulleted or numbered lists. To make them, type:

;item:definition
;item:definition
;item:definition:alternatedef

And so on. This is what the above code looks like:

item
definition
item
definition
item
definition:

Indented Lists

Indented lists are very helpful; they can be used as lists and for regular text. To make them, type in:

:1 indent
:1 Indent
::2 indents (sub-item)
:::3 indents (sub-sub-item)
::::4 indents (sub-sub-sub-item)

And so on, adding more :'s for a larger indent. This is what the above code looks like:

1 indent
1 Indent
2 indents (sub-item)
3 indents (sub-sub-item)
4 indents (sub-sub-sub-item)

Mixed Lists

Mixed lists are lists containing one or more methods of listing. Below is an example:

indent
  • Another bullet (with indent)

The code for this:

*Bullet
**##Number with bullet
: indent
:*Another bullet (with indent)
