Template:Comma separated entries/doc

From Guild of Archivists

This template is used primarily in infoboxes to create a comma delimited collection of items, only adding the commas where needed.

For lists of items, without bullets, use {{plainlist}}.

Usage[edit source]

{{comma separated entries|entry1|entry2|entry3|entry4|entry5|...}}
