		+
		+	There are two ways to format lists of people or organizations.
		+
		+	===Lists of short items===
		+
		+	- names of persons or organizations, or short phrases. Use a horizontal list, with items separated by <nowiki>]] \| [[</nowiki>
		+
		+	e.g. APCO, Bayer, Dow, Shell
		+
		+	:What you put in:
		+
		+	::<nowiki>[[APCO]] \| [[Bayer]] \| [[Dow Chemical]] \| [[Shell]]</nowiki>
		+
		+	:What you get:
		+
		+	::[[APCO]] \| [[Bayer]] \| [[Dow Chemical]] \| [[Shell]]
		+
		+	e.g. Jane Smith, chief executive officer and president; John Pratt, vice-president; Joe Bloggs, communications manager
		+
		+	:What you put in:
		+
		+	::<nowiki>[[Jane Smith]] - chief executive officer and president \| [[John Pratt]] – vice-president \| [[Joe Bloggs]] – communications manager</nowiki>
		+
		+	:What you get:
		+
		+	::[[Jane Smith]] – chief executive officer and president \| [[John Pratt]] – vice-president \| [[Joe Bloggs]] – communications manager
		+
		+	===Lists of longer items===
		+
		+	– where you give a number of points of information. Use a vertical list, with each item preceded by <nowiki>*</nowiki>.
		+
		+	e.g. Jane Smith, chief executive officer and president, paid £2,600,000 in the year ended 2006; Joe Bloggs, communications manager, paid £1,900,000 in the year ended 2006
		+
		+	What you put in:
		+
		+	<nowiki>* [[Jane Smith]], chief executive officer and president, paid £2,600,000 in the year ended 2006</nowiki>
		+
		+	<nowiki>* [[Joe Bloggs]], communications manager, paid £1,900,000 in the year ended 2006</nowiki>
		+
		+	What you get:
		+
		+	* [[Jane Smith]], chief executive officer and president, paid £2,600,000 in the year ended 2006
		+	* [[Joe Bloggs]], communications manager, paid £1,900,000 in the year ended 2006
