Template:*/doc

File:Information icon-grey.svg

This is a documentation subpage for Template:*. It contains usage information, categories, and other content that is not part of the original template page.

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.

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
