Usage

edit

Creates an element that functions similarly to a colon-indent :foo, but on an HTML level is a bullet *foo. This is helpful for people using screenreaders and other assistive technologies. See Wikipedia:Colons and asterisks.

The text must be included as a parameter, e.g. {{i*|The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy Wikipedian}}. Using the template simply in place of a bullet, followed by the text, will not work. If an = will appear (outside of a wikilink) somewhere in your message (including in a custom signature), you must prefix the message with 1=.

Useful for situations like:

  • Here are three things:
    • Foo
    • Bar
    • Baz
  • Now my comment is over. ~~~~

Any reply can now continue as an ** or *: without issue.

Use the {{{indent}}} parameter to add additional indentation before the bullet point. {{i*|indent=::::|The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy Wikipedian}} becomes:

  • The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy Wikipedian
