As noted above, in a numbered list in a large font, some browsers do not show more than two digits of indentation width, unless extra indentation is applied (if there are multiple columns; then indentation for each column).

Lists and tables are two different ways to format multiple, similar items on a page. Lists and HTML tables go back to Wikipedia's early days. The current wikicode tables (see the section about tables), which you can edit more easily and even sort, came later. You'll find many more lists than tables on Wikipedia.
This navbox is intended for use at the bottom of the documentation pages of list-generating and -formatting templates. It takes no parameters. The above documentation is transcluded from Template:HTML lists/doc .
Template:Columns-list turns a list into a list with columns. It is a wrapper for {{ div col }} , except it wraps the template by allowing for the content to be in the template rather than above and below.
Lists made with bullets are called bulleted lists. The HTML element name for a bulleted list is " unordered list ", because the list items are not arranged in numerical order (as they would be in a numbered list ).
To start a new list, just click on one of the two menu items shown here. Or, if you already have typed the list (on separate lines), select (highlight) the list you have typed, then click on one of the menu items. Shown here are examples of the two types of lists: unordered (bullet) and ordered (numbered).
