Template talk:Bold list

Substituted or transcluded?
Is there a way to modify this template so that it can be transcluded? I tried just now and  produced , which really isn't the behaviour I'd like.

I think this template would be more useful if it could be substituted. Wikicode itself is enough of a barrier for new users (and some who aren't so new), and template editing even more so. Editing this with the visual editor is both a challenge in itself, and adds a lot of extra work.

I think an italic list template would be even more useful, since there are cases where you have to list several species with un-italicised commas (or full stops). And would it be possible for bulleted lists (e.g., as a starting point for a list of species).

trim and ignore empties?
For meta templating, I found it useful to trim and ignore empty values (much like ). Shall I update the code? Dpleibovitz (talk) 19:00, 7 September 2022 (UTC) PAGE ]]) 16:20, 8 September 2022 (UTC)

 * @PerfectSoundWhatever Sounds good to me. The real question for meta-templating is how you want to handle missing values. Currently  will display as a or b since we use ipairs. If we want it to continue after a skipped value, you'd have to use the sandbox version. --Ahecht ([[User talk:Ahecht|TALK
