A template intended to aid the creation of lists which are strings of items separated by a "divider" or "separator" character. {{middot}}
, which redirects to this template, may also be used. Please note "Linewrap management" and the Example given below.
- Character used
- The divider/separator character used here is a bold middot (·) as it usually appears less conspicuously than a bullet (•) or the vertical-line ( | ) but more visibly than a plain middot (·). (The vertical-line also resembles the uppercase letter "I", lowercase "l" or the upright parts of "h", "k", etc.)
- Linewrap management
- The template prefixes the bold middot separator with a non-breaking space ( ) so
{{·}}
is meant to be suffixed to each item, i.e. without a space between it and the preceeding item in the list, as shown below. This prevents the separator being linewrapped to the starts of lines.
- <small> font-size alternative
- For lists using a font-size 80% of normal font-size or less,
{{·}}
becomes too small. Use •
(i.e. a non-breaking space followed by the bullet character) instead.
- Example
- Code:Template:Spaces
item 1{{·}} item 2{{·}} item 3{{·}} item 4
Result: item 1 · item 2 · item 3 · item 4
