That really is the only bullet point rule to remember. Bullet points are brilliant – and can make you look brilliant. … then the sense of it all is shot down in a hail of bullets. Now look at what happens when it gets mashed up. What happens if I rephrase the list as a set of questions? However, caps or no, it is obviously important that each item in the list matches with the sense of the introductory phrase.
There is nothing actually amiss but it does looks wrong to my eye. The capitalisation doesn’t quite make sense to me. But to my taste it is really no more than one sentence with an artificial layout. Perhaps a list, any list or just some lists in particular, would look more impressive with initial caps. Should I have separated the items in my list as though they appeared in a conventional sentence, employing commas or semi-colons as required? Writer’s choice (depending on house-style).
#Typo baubles full
Would you have preferred a full stop at the end of each item? Or, perhaps, just at the end of the list? Fair enough, just so long as you do the same thing on every occasion in any given document. In the examples laid out above I chose to – Just, please, whatever you do, be consistent.
#Typo baubles license
You have license to impose order in your own way. More good news: there is, grammatically at least, no absolutely right or wrong way to execute it. Any: Ankh Charm - Really good bauble to have. > Poison stone is an uncommon drop from infernal mob. Any: Poison Stone - Grants immunity to poison and 2x damage to poisoned mobs Use over Bezoar.
> Bezoar is a common drop from cave spiders. Management needs bullets and the need for bulleted management is clear. Any: Bezoar - Gives immunity to poison, used in Ankh Charm.
make sense of a series of (i) words, (ii) thoughts, (iii) actions or (iv) proposals that might otherwise get lost in a densely signposted a) sentence, b) paragraph, c) page, or, nowadays, d) screen. The bullet point is an old school slug of typographic nicety that can 1. And, like a grey-suited businessman’s tie, it’s your choice of symbol that may project personality or brand.Īlternatively, as you prefer, your list may be ordered by: Nothing says ‘this is a serious document’ in the way that a well-bulleted list can. Solid and hollow dots hearts, clubs, diamonds, spades squares arrows and dashes logos, whatever in numeric or alphabetic order as you prefer, or whatever. The bullets targeted here are those typo-baubles that bedeck the page or screen by way of introducing items in a list. However, unless you are symbolophobic there should be nothing of that calibre to be afraid of in this blog.
