This template is used on approximately 650,000 pages, or roughly 1% of all pages. To avoid major disruption and server load, any changes should be tested in the template's /sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own user subpage.
For lists of up to 30 items (may increase later) without bullets, use a {} or {{Unbulleted list}} template. Typical uses are in infobox fields, and to replace pseudo-lists of lines separated with <br />. The templates emit the correct HTML markup, and hide the bullets with CSS (see Template:Plainlist § Technical details).
oppose, this list format has two major features (1) vertical and (2) without bullets. given that the standard list format in html is both vertical and with bullets, the distinguishing feature here is that it is without bullets. the vertical aspect is not special.

Ordered list items have a wider margin to accomodate for (larger) numbers: Item 1; Item 9999; The margin is twice as wide as those for unordered list items, so you can still line them up with wiki-markup. — Edokter (talk) — 10:01, 31 January 2013 (UTC) Aha! Again thanks. To the original poster: why do you want to change the list-style-type?
Nested: The {} version of the template has a bullet that is black like ordered list numbers instead of dark blue like auto-generated unordered list bullets, for a more consistent appearance in complex lists. The example below uses manual ordered numbering that, like manual unordered bulleting, is copy-pasteable:
There are three types of lists: unordered lists, ordered lists, and description lists (a.k.a. definition lists or association lists).In the following sections, various list types are used for different examples, but other list types will generally give corresponding results.
use standard wiki list markup * for unordered lists unordered lists are rendered without bullet points and with hanging indents; use standard wiki list markup ; and : for description lists; see Help:List; do not create lists with <br /> tags because that kind of list impedes accessibility; see MOS:ACCESS §Vertical lists
