Title: Demanding additional [li] tags in list !!
Post by: webtricks on December 25, 2019, 04:35:18 PM
I mean seriously! Just 2!  >:( >:(
Why would I create a list for just 2 items!
Increase it to 4 at least.

Reason for demand:
  • 1. Because I am too lazy to type/paste more.
  • 2. Because it's Christmas

Wait! Did I just create list with two items?

According to google:

Quote
list
/list/
noun
1. a number of connected items or names written or printed consecutively, typically one below the other.

A list is a number of items.  One is a number, so theymos gave you twice as many as would have been required to call it a "list."  :P

Merry Christmas.

I agree with this proposal assuming that the additional 2 required tags are automatically added and turned into cat-emojis. Paging theymos.

Well, that was technical. Are you lawyer or something?

That was selfish. You defied the purpose of whole movement. I'm dissapointed. Comrades won't be happy.

Merry Christmas.

Same to you. :)

...why are you making this a big deal again?


Its normal English, a list is a plural form of a singular item, multiple instances, even if it is just 2. Gee, someone should really start get started with the on-forum Course thing that theymos started. People be dying out of boredom here.

Please go drink some Wine, and get hammered. Its Christmas ffs.

This is probably one of the most ridiculous complaints due to laziness I've seen this month.

I agree a bit though. It's completely fine when I'm on my computer as I can easily copy-paste, but goddamn it's definitely a hassle when I'm typing on mobile.

Typing
Code:
[li][/li]
does not take too much time and I doubt that there are users who plan to type long will be eagerly to do it on mobile.
When they plan to make a long reply, they might wait till having access to computer

How often people make list with more than 2 items?
How many people want to do a long reply on mobile?
I imagine the answer will be found with these two questions.

I was speaking from personal experience, and I definitely like making multiple points when I'm talking about something really in-depth.

With that said, you're unnecessarily putting a little bit too much thought into it lmao calm the heck down. It's nothing but first world problems. We're just poking around here.

There should be a button to add one li-tag to a selection (just like there's a bold button).

It is, but I know you want it too!

At least, I have a tut for you.
Instead of manually typing 1. & 2. for your list, like that
  • 1. Because I am too lazy to type/paste more.
  • 2. Because it's Christmas

You can use the option type=decimal, that will automatically replace bullets with ordinal numbers for your list.
Example:
  • First item
  • Second item
Code:
[list type=decimal]
[li]First item[/li]
[li]Second item[/li]
[/list]

Any other options I didn't know about?

LoyceV merit this!

A list is a number of items.  One is a number, so theymos gave you twice as many as would have been required to call it a "list."  :P

Why are you discriminating against the existentially challenged?   Zero items must start an empty list, correct?  Zero is a number...

Testing one more option:

  • This is the first item
  • This is the second item
  • This is the third item
  • I'm tired of thinking up list items
This uses:
Code:
[list type=lower-roman]

Thank you Loyce. I did not know the option (lower-roman). I can not use any words to express my mood now. I appreciated your merit-lifting today. Happy holidays to you, Loyce.
