Template:Tree list: Difference between revisions

<includeonly><div class="treeview"></includeonly><noinclude>

'''Tree list''' is a simple template that calls upon some CSS in [[MediaWiki:Common.css]] to change the appearance of bulleted lists so that they have continuous connected lines. This makes hierarchical relationships much easier to follow with the eye. You open a tree list by simply invoking the template and then typing a bullet list, but make sure to close the list with [[Template:Tree list/end]] afterward.

{{Tree list/end}}

Now, what if you want to show a node as a child of a previous parent in the list, not the parent of the current list of children? You invoke [[Template:Tree list/branching]]. The three asterisks before the call to branching means "End the list of children of the last third-level parent".
