Bold, italics, links, pre can be embedded in lists. Whitespace is optional before and after the - or # character.

Unordered Lists#

These lists are usually also refered to as bullet lists, however this term is misleading because with css you can format it as bold dashes as well...

Creole:

- Item 1
- Item 2

Recommended HTML:

<ul>
<li>Item 1</li>
<li>Item 2</li>
</ul>

Output:

  • Item 1
  • Item 2

Leading Whitespace#

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.
