At line 48 changed one line
People like Alex argued against allowing leading whitespace, citing the markup for [Headings] as a counter example. People like Christoph and Alain however reported that users will indent lists. The output then confuses non-technical people and requires a certain amount of handholding.
Lists can be nested:

!! WikiMatrix
Creole:
{{{
* Item 1
* Item 2
** Item 2.1
** Item 2.2
}}}
At line 58 added 85 lines
Recommended HTML:
{{{
<ul>
<li>Item 1</li>
<li>Item 2
<ul>
<li>Item 2.1</li>
<li>Item 2.2</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
}}}
Output:
* Item 1
* Item 2
** Item 2.1
** Item 2.2
!!! Mixing
Nested lists can be mixed by repeating the list item character multiple times:
Creole:
{{{
* Item 1
* Item 2
## Item 2.1
## Item 2.2
}}}
Recommended HTML:
{{{
<ul>
<li>Item 1</li>
<li>Item 2
<ol>
<li>Item 2.1</li>
<li>Item 2.2</li>
</ol>
</li>
</ul>
}}}
Output:
* Item 1
* Item 2
## Item 2.1
## Item 2.2
!!! Leading Whitespace
People like Alex argued against allowing leading whitespace, citing the markup for [Headings] as a counter example. People like Christoph, Alain and Radomir however reported that users will indent lists. The output then confuses non-technical people and requires a certain amount of handholding.
Note that leading whitespace has no effect on the nesting of the list item. The number list item character repetitions determines the nesting level.
Creole:
{{{

<ul>
