TemplateStyles not installed on the Second Life Wiki! This template provides a "Wikipedia logo"WCAG/ISO-standards-compliant accessible alternative to <br /> separated lists, per "Wikipedia logo"WP:UBLIST and "Wikipedia logo"WP:PLIST

Usage

{{plainlist}} starts a plain (i.e. unbulleted) list, such as:

It uses proper HTML list markup, which is more standards-compliant and more accessible than separating list items with <br />. Detailed reasons for using this template can be found at "Wikipedia logo"WP:UBLIST.

This template can be used with or without {{endplainlist}}. It is an alternative to {{unbulleted list}}, which performs the same function in a more concise but less wiki-style manner. Note that {{unbulleted list}} will work inside image captions, whereas {{plainlist}} does not.

Examples

{{plainlist| * [[cat]] * [[dog]] * [[horse]] * [[cow]] * [[sheep]] * [[pig]] }}

Alternative syntax

{{plainlist}} * [[cat]] * [[dog]] * [[horse]] * [[cow]] * [[sheep]] * [[pig]] {{endplainlist}}

=== Controlling line-breaking ===
Template {{tlx|nbsp}} may be used with {{tlx|wbr}} and {{tlx|nowrap}} to control line-breaking in bulletless lists, to prevent wrapped long entries from being confused with multiple entries. See [[Template:Wbr/doc#Controlling line-breaking in infoboxes]] for details.

== Technical details ==
{{tl|Plainlist}} works by constructing a {{Wikipedia|span and div|div}} with the {{Wikipedia|Cascading Style Sheets|CSS}} class "plainlist" which has the styles listed in {{Wikipedia|Template:Plainlist/styles.css}}.

{| class="wikitable"
! Wikitext	
! Expanded template	
! HTML

| class="nowrap" | <pre>
{{Plainlist|
* Example 1
* Example 2
* Example 3
}}
</pre>	
| class="nowrap" | {{nowiki2|tag=pre|
{{Plainlist|
* Example 1
* Example 2
* Example 3
}}
}}	
| <syntaxhighlight lang="html">
