Template:Documentation

The * template is used to add bullets (example: ) by substituting '''•''' automatically.

Usage

The recommended usage is to use spaces before and after the template.

[[Bones]] {{*}} [[Big bones]]

The template renders one space on each side of the bullet. Bones Big bones

For long dotted lists each list item can be put on its own line, with spaces between each item and the template.

[[Bones]] {{*}}
[[Bat bones]] {{*}}
[[Wolf bones]] {{*}}
[[Big bones]] {{*}}
[[Dragon bones]]

As before, the template renders one space on each side of the bullets. Bones Bat bones Wolf bones Big bones Dragon bones

When the list is too long and line breaks, the class "nowraplinks" should be used.

<div class="nowraplinks">
[[Bones]] {{*}} [[Bat bones]] {{*}} [[Wolf bones]] {{*}} [[Big bones]] {{*}} [[Dragon bones]] {{*}} [[Bones]] {{*}} [[Bat bones]] {{*}} [[Wolf bones]] {{*}} [[Big bones]] {{*}} [[Dragon bones]] {{*}} [[Bones]] {{*}} [[Bat bones]] {{*}} [[Wolf bones]] {{*}} [[Big bones]] {{*}} [[Dragon bones]]
</div>

Using "nowraplinks" forces the line break to come after one of the bullets.
