 === Lists ===
+:''See [[Help:List]] for advanced use cases for lists.''
+There are tree basic types of lists in HTML that are supported in MediaWiki markup: [[#unordered|unordered]] (or "bulleted") lists, [[#numbered|numbered]] lists, [[#description|description]] lists. Each type of lists can be created within wiki source code by just indicating the items at the beginning of the line (the list is automatically built around them). Each item has to start on a new line.
-You can create bulleted lists by one or more <code>*</code> (asterisk) chars at the beginning of the line:
+==== Unordered ====
+Unordered list items are marked by <code>*</code> (asterisk):
-* first level
+* Coffee
-** second level
+* Wine
-** second level
+* Milk
-* first level
-You can create numbered lists by one or more <code>#</code> (number sign) at the beginning of the line:
+==== Numbered ====
+Numbered list items are marked by <code>#</code> (number sign):
-# first level
+# Coffee
-## second level
+# Wine
-## second level
+# Milk
-# first level
-...and you can of course mix both, if you know what you're doing ;)
+==== Description ====
+Description items are marked by <code>;</code> (semicolon) for term and <code>:</code> (colon) for the description:
-# first level
+; Coffee
-#* second level
+: a brewed drink prepared from roasted coffee beans. (from: ''[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coffee Coffee - Wikipedia''])
-#* second level
+; Wine
-# first level
+: an alcoholic beverage made from fermented grapes. (from: ''[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wine Wine - Wikipedia]'')
