Use of Lists

Lists are commonly used and can be useful. In order to maximize usefulness there are several rules you should follow:

  • List elements should be ordered to maximize performance.
  • Important items should be placed at the top of the list.
  • Lists should be formatted for easy scanning.
  • A series of related items should be displayed as a list, not continuous text.
  • Each list should have an introductory heading.
  • List style should be appropriate (i.e., numbers for ordered items, bullets for items of equal value).
  • For each list item, capitalize the first letter of the first word.
