894:"Ref." is nice and short, but keeps the period to make it clear it's an abbreviation. I think the tooltips are helpful, just in case there's any confusion ("ref" is pretty widespread, but it's not guaranteed universally understood). Regarding the plurality, if all rows only have a single reference, it should be singular, just like we'd have singular "County" as the title in a country list with one country per row. And if at least one row has multiple references, it should use (s) to indicate an optional plural. Even if all rows have multiple references, I don't really like 11 as much, since it sends the false signal that multiple references are required, and for dynamic lists, someone adding a new row with only a single reference would be unlikely to know/remember to change it to 12. 1270:, or (in descending order of preference) 12, 15, or 16 as second to fourth choices. See my comment above about bikeshedding. We have better things to do than templatize a bunch of nit-picking options few people will ever care about or use, like plurality or punctuation changes. I initially favored 15 and 16 over 11 and 12 because more sources are never forbidden, and we are not doing any kind "References" to "Reference" conversion in actual article headings if only one reference happens to be present. And "Reference" sounds like an instruction. However, it later occurred to me that "ref." is equally an abbreviation of "references" as of "reference"; it is not mandatory to stick an 3113:
appropriateness of each list item. A reference index floating by itself looks wrong (to me). An obvious alternative is to repeat the (named) reference for every list item; easily done, of course but the result would look lame-brained (to me). Another obvious (but worse) alternative would be to append the reference to the last item; but then it would be unclear whether this reference was supplied for the list as a whole or merely for its last item. And one could supply an introductory sentence ("According to Taiwan Docs, the film has been shown in the following festivals:"), but this adds flab. Is there a better way of referencing an entire list? --

example given would be better as an inline list.) Your version is how a lot of lists are already done. But in this case it's a poor choice, because it's not a format that's very good for lists of a few examples. It implies that it's a complete list (or at least a complete list of notable instances of whatever the subject it is, or all the instances we are going to be treating in the article − e.g., we often use it for cast lists for films and TV shows). It looks like an index or glossary of some sort, and we also frequently use it for that purpose (with entries often corresponding to sections that follow).

but not yet have the article. It is technically incorrect to remove all of these links on the basis of "non-notable" when what you really mean is that they don't have a Knowledge article. It seems like "many editors" are just using the "non-notable" moniker as an excuse to remove items to get around lists that don't use the "Knowledge articles only" standard, but it should be obvious how this is a harmful practice to Knowledge. I don't understand how good editors resort to these kind of harmful ways when
2832:. So, I'm also wondering why these links would not still qualify to be in a list under the sister project provision even if they were not notable since you were quoted as saying they must be one or the other. It seems to me that removing them under one provision while ignoring the other is nothing but an excuse to remove them simply because you don't like them for some reason or another. The template Mburrel describes seems like a reasonable way to encourage turning undesirable pages into good pages... 1137:. Lack of points at the end of contraction abbreviations (Dr, St) is effectively standard in British and some other dialects, while the presence of them is effectively standard in American and probably a few other dialects. Dropping the points after truncation abbreviations (Prof., Hon.) isn't an effective standard in any, and the major British style guides deprecate the practice (which is primarily found in news journalism, e.g. the stylebook of 35: 260:. It'll be interpreted as disruptive to delete valid list entries that have sufficient sourcing in their own main articles, just to try to force someone else to do the work of porting over one or more of those citations. It would also be disruptive, though, to go around removing citations from a list on the excuse that the list items in question are already sourced in other articles. Basically, 2952: 1382:. I'll start introducing it to a few pages (conservatively for now, meaning not changing any pages that don't already use the template's exact format). The nice thing about it being template-ified is that if wiser minds than us come along at some point and decide we did this wrong, changing it will be as simple as changing the template, whereas right now it's not an option. 1471:. The argument is that prose makes clearer certain information whereas a list can not, and the example is a list that starts with the intro text: "20th-century architecture of New York City." But what if only the intro text needed to be clearer and the list would work? What if instead of "20th-century architecture of NEW YORK CITY?!!!!" (sorry, had do that 2598:(plain/bullet list), which makes the prose quite impossible to separate into the individual elements.

It 2434: 649:, the vast majority of readers already know what that is and are looking for something more specific). The list format encourages clicking away to one of the list items more than prose paragraphs do. Most of our list articles exist as a form of navigation and have little or no stand-alone content of their own beyond an explanatory lead. 2113:- We have been doing this in the "List of xxxx albums" series for a few years now to keep list size down. What I like best about the statement is that instead of just stating that no citation is required if there is a linked article, it states that verification from sources in the linked article is part of the process. 2352:::A highly cited guide to the use of isotope geochemistry in solving geological problems, and the methods involved.

back them up. The exception would be when it's a list of a permanently fixed number of things that do not change (e.g. already-complete list of presidents of a company that no longer exists).

The editor in question may have only been interested in that particular Prime Minister, saw "Fifth Prime Minister of Andorra" and thought that was silly and wanted truncating, and did so -- or vice versa.

Yeah I suppose so, ideally, but it's unlikely to happen. You're talking about, an editor comes across an article about a particular Prime Minister of Andorra, and (say) changes the infobox image caption from "Prime Minister of Andorra" to "Fifth Prime Minister of Andorra" or vice versa, thus making

When it comes to how we present lists of items, my oppion is to always default towards tables. There is almost always more information than just the items and their descriptions (bullet list style). Creating tables allows the reader to quickly assess that additional information in a structured way.

The point of the MoS section isn't that it's impossible to encapsulate the same information in a list with long items; it's that WP is primarily a prose work, and lists should mostly be used for information that doesn't work well as a paragraph and works better as a list. (Actually, the bare-list

Hmm, well this wasn't quite as definitive as I'd hoped. However, I do find 207.161.86.162's point about some British English articles not using periods persuasive, so I built that into the template as a non-default option but otherwise took the coder's prerogative and designed it as I believe it

As far as I know, it is correct to remove unlinked or red-linked items out of an embedded list, as those items are deemed non-notable. But is that the case, or can every item related to the subject of the article be added, sourced or unsourced, with or without article?

Years ago several editors worked hard to come up with guidelines on how best to write these sections/articles. Not all are in agreement and there never was a complete consensus. Those of us in agreement wrote the following guidelines:
