== Lists and Indenting ==
You can create bulleted and numbered lists in a quite natural way. All you do is inserting the line containing the list item. To get bulleted items, start the item with an asterisk "{{{*}}}"; to get numbered items, start it with a number template "{{{1.}}}", "{{{a.}}}", "{{{A.}}}", "{{{i.}}}" or "{{{I.}}}". Anything else will just indent the line. To start a numbered list with a certain initial value, append "{{{#}}}''value''" to the number template.
To nest lists of different levels, you use different depths of indenting. All items on the same indent level belong to the same (sub-)list. That also means that you cannot change the style of a list after you started it.
For more information on the possible markup, see HelpOnEditing.
=== Example ===
{{{
If you indent text
like this, then it is indented in the output
you can have multiple levels of indent
And if you put asterisks at the start of the line
* you get a
* bulleted
* list
* which can also be indented
* to several levels
A numbered list, mixed with bullets:
1. one
1. two
1. one
* bullet 1
* bullet 2
1. two
1. three
* bullet
1. one
Variations of numbered lists:
* Lowercase roman
i. one
i. two
* Uppercase roman (with start offset 42)
I.#42 forty-two
I. forty-three
* Lowercase alpha
a. one
a. two
* Uppercase alpha
A. one
A. two
