This template creates unbulleted lists. Each item in the list may have Wikipedia:CSS styles added to it individually, by appending a numbered parameter.

Usage edit

Basic usage

{{unbulleted list|first item|second item|third item|...}}

All parameters

{{unbulleted list
|first item|second item|third item|...
|class     = class
|style     = style
|list_style  = style for ul tag
|item_style  = style for all li tags
|item1_style = style for first li tag |item2_style = style for second li tag |...
}}

Parameters edit

Positional parameters (1, 2, 3...) – these are the list items. If no list items are present, the module will output nothing.
class – a custom class for the <div>...</div> tags surrounding the list, e.g. plainlinks.
style – a custom CSS style for the <div>...</div> tags surrounding the list, e.g. font-size: 90%;.
list_style – a custom CSS style for the <ul>...</ul> tags around the list. The format is the same as for the |style= parameter.
item_style – a custom CSS style for all of the list items (the <li>...</li> tags). The format is the same as for the |style= parameter.
item1_style, item2_style, item3_style... – custom CSS styles for each of the list items. The format is the same as for the |style= parameter.

Controlling line-breaking edit

Template {{nbsp}} may be used with {{wbr}} and {{nowrap}} to control line-breaking in bulletless lists, to prevent wrapped long entries from being confused with multiple entries. See Template:Wbr/doc for details.

Wrapping this entire template with {{nowrap}} causes syntax errors. Use |class=nowrap instead.

Technical details edit

{{Unbulleted list}} works by constructing a div with the CSS class "plainlist" which has the following style (see MediaWiki:Common.css):

.plainlist ul {
    line-height: inherit;
    list-style: none none;
    margin: 0;
}
.plainlist ul li {
    margin-bottom: 0;
}
