Basic Editing Tutorial Page 3


The last topic for Basic Editing is the use of the asterisk, the number sign and the colon. These are useful when you wish to display a table of contents, or bullet topics or paragraph indentation. The asterisk is used to simply place a bullet before your text. The number sign is used to place a number before your text. And the colon is used to simply indent your text without a bullet or number. If you place multiple of the same character in a row, the web browser understands this to mean an indented sub-listing.

  1. This topic explains the different type of list bullets.
    1. Numbered, or
    2. Simple Bullets
  2. We also provide you will different working examples.

    So, as you can see by the above 4 numbered bullets. We placed a number sign on a new line followed by a space and the text describing the topic for that bullet.

    When you place multiple number signs in a row (in the above example, 2 were used), the web browser understood that to imply a sub-list.

      You can have multiple bullet listing on your wiki page.
