{{#ifeq:{{FULLPAGENAME}} | Template:Plainlist | {{high-risk| 149000+ }} }}
This template provides a [[Web Content Accessibility Guidelines|WCAG]]/ISO-standards-compliant accessible alternative to <code><nowiki><br /></nowiki></code> separated lists, per [[WP:UBLIST]] and [[WP:PLIST]]
==Usage==
{{tl|plainlist}} starts a plain (i.e. unbulleted) list, such as:
{{plainlist|
* [[cat]]
* [[dog]]
* [[horse]]
* [[cow]]
* [[sheep]]
* [[pig]]
}}
It uses proper HTML list markup, which is more standards-compliant and more accessible than separating list items with {{tag|br|s}}. Detailed reasons for using this template can be found at [[WP:UBLIST]].
This template can be used with or without {{tl|endplainlist}}. It is an alternative to {{tl|unbulleted list}}, which performs the same function in a more concise but less wiki-style manner. Note that {{tl|unbulleted list}} will work inside image captions, whereas {{tl|plainlist}} does not.
==Examples==
{{Markup
|<nowiki>
{{plainlist|
* [[cat]]
* [[dog]]
* [[horse]]
* [[cow]]
* [[sheep]]
* [[pig]]
}}
</nowiki>
|
{{plainlist|
* [[cat]]
* [[dog]]
* [[horse]]
* [[cow]]
* [[sheep]]
* [[pig]]
}}
}}

=== Controlling line-breaking ===
Template {{tlx|nbsp}} may be used with {{tlx|wbr}} and {{tlx|nowrap}} to control line-breaking in bulletless lists, to prevent wrapped long entries from being confused with multiple entries. See [[Template:Wbr/doc#Controlling line-breaking in infoboxes]] for details.
==Technical details==
{{tl|Plainlist}} works by constructing a [[span and div|div]] with the [[Cascading Style Sheets|CSS]] class "plainlist" which has the following style (see [[MediaWiki:Common.css]]):
<syntaxhighlight lang="css">
.plainlist ul {
line-height: inherit;
list-style: none none;
margin: 0;
}
.plainlist ul li {
margin-bottom: 0;
}
</syntaxhighlight>
{| class="wikitable"
! Wikitext
! Expanded template
! HTML
|- style="vertical-align:top;"
| class="nowrap" | <pre>
{{Plainlist|
* Example 1
* Example 2
* Example 3
}}
</pre>
| class="nowrap" | {{nowiki2|tag=pre|
{{Plainlist|
* Example 1
* Example 2
* Example 3
}}
}}
| <syntaxhighlight lang="html">
<div class="plainlist">
<ul>
<li>Example 1</li>
<li>Example 2</li>
<li>Example 3</li>
</ul>
</div>
</syntaxhighlight>
|}
==Redirects==
* {{tl|Startplainlist}}
==See also==
* {{tl|unbulleted list}} – essentially the same but uses <code><nowiki>| ... | ... | ...</nowiki></code> instead of <code><nowiki>|* ... * ... * ...</nowiki></code>
* {{tl|flatlist}} and {{tl|hlist}} (replacements for comma- or dash-separated lists)
* {{tl|bulleted list}}
* {{tl|ordered list}}
