Here's how to create a list:

Headers

There are six kinds of headers; levels 1 through 6, six being the smallest. These are transcribed using equals signs on either side of the header.

For header one, type =Header 1=. For header two, type ==Header 2==. And so on:

Header 1

Header 2

Header 3

Header 4

Header 5
Header 6

Usage: Topics and subtopics within pages.

Indentation

To indent a paragraph, use the colon sign.

For a single indent, type :. For two indents, type ::. And so on:

Single indent
Double indent
Triple indent

Usage: Mostly in talk pages to reply to a specific comment.

Bulleted and Numbered Lists

To create a bulleted list, use the asterisk sign. To create a numbered list, use the pound sign.

For a level one bullet, type *. For a level two bullet, type **. And so on:

  • Single bullet
    • Double bullet
      • Triple bullet

Use a single pound sign, #, for each number:

  1. First
  2. Second
  3. Third

Usage: Mainly for listing topics or giving ideas.

Newlines

You can use the break tag to force a new line when using unformatted text.

Use a single break tag, <br>, to force a new line.

This list is not formated,<br>
so you need the break tag,<br>
to start each new line.

Usage: When you want unformatted text to wrap the page in a specific way.
