Should we imitate FREEZE artefacts?: who on earth told you that making lists via asterisk is "rusty wikispaces syntax" ?

:::Nope. The standard list model really is the most reliable. Ever heard of Internet Explorer 6? [[User:PiotrGrochowski|PiotrGrochowski]] ([[User talk:PiotrGrochowski|talk]]) 19:21, 30 September 2018 (UTC)

::::I literally don't understand this argument at all because the '''rendered''' Wikimedia page from a list with asterisks has exactly the form <nowiki><ul><li>...</li><li></nowiki>... So which one is used in the wikitext can't possibly have an effect on how it renders in IE6 or whatever. It's exactly the same once it's rendered and is only different when editing the source. —[[User:Keenan Pepper|Keenan Pepper]] ([[User talk:Keenan Pepper|talk]]) 14:42, 1 October 2018 (UTC)
: Absolutely yes (to Keenan): I love the "inoffical lists" and hate the <code><nowiki><ul><li></li></ul></nowiki></code> stuff. Why make it so complicated??? Wiki means fast. I don't see anythong faster than placing <code>*</code> at the beginning of the listed items. I'm not aware that this was being discussed somewhere. --[[User:Xenwolf|Xenwolf]] ([[User talk:Xenwolf|talk]]) 19:03, 30 September 2018 (UTC)

:: The "FREEZE" thing was just me and Tyler playing with this until we got it to work. We never intended for these conventions to become standardized, it was just the easiest way to parse. [[User:Mike Battaglia|Mike Battaglia]] ([[User talk:Mike Battaglia|talk]]) 19:36, 30 September 2018 (UTC)
