Lists can get complicated, if they are nested in other lists, items get longer than just one line, for instance whole paragraphs. Items contain images and so on. The wiki markup is optimized for simple lists, for complex lists MediaWiki allows for embedding HTML all three types of lists. | Lists can get complicated, if they are nested in other lists, items get longer than just one line, for instance whole paragraphs.

<dd>[[File:Test-120x60px.png|right|60px]] The cent is a logarithmic unit of measure used for musical intervals. Twelve-tone equal temperament divides the octave into 12 semitones of 100 cents each. Typically, cents are used to express small intervals, or to compare the sizes of comparable intervals in different tuning systems, and in fact the interval of one cent is too small to be heard between successive notes. | <dd>[[File:Test-120x60px.png|right|60px]] The cent is a logarithmic unit of measure used for musical intervals.
