converting to new format
preserving the markup characters from the previous line will avoid the rare formatting oddity when mixing asterisks, colons, and number signs throughout a list
Line 22:
 
 
To create a list, add an [[Asterisk (punctuation)|asterisk]] (<tt>*</tt>) at the start of each point. This goes after any colonsmarkup (<tt>:</tt>, <tt>*</tt>, or <tt>#</tt>) that arewere used in the preceding line. It will add a ''bullet point'' (•) to each line, like this:
 
{| class="wikitable" border="1" style="width: 100%;"
Line 32:
<tt><nowiki>:* First list item</nowiki></tt><br />
<tt><nowiki>:* Second list item</nowiki></tt><br />
<tt><nowiki>::** Sub-list item under second</nowiki></tt><br />
<tt><nowiki>:* Third list item</nowiki></tt>

::**Sub-list item under second
