{{template shortcut|i*|pre=subst:}}
{{always subst|auto=yes}}
== Usage ==
Creates an element that functions similarly to a colon-indent <code><nowiki>:foo</nowiki></code>, but on an HTML level is a bullet <code><nowiki>*foo</nowiki></code>. This is helpful for people using screenreaders and other assistive technologies. See [[Wikipedia:Colons and asterisks]].

The text must be included as a parameter, e.g. {{tlx|i*|The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy Wikipedian}}. Using the template simply in place of a bullet, followed by the text, will not work. If an <code>=</code> will appear (outside of a wikilink) somewhere in your message (including in a custom signature), you must prefix the message with <code>1=</code>.

Useful for situations like:
{{markup|
<nowiki>* Here are three things:
** Foo
** Bar
** Baz
{{invisible bullet|Now my comment is over. {{tildes}}}}</nowiki>|2=* Here are three things:
** Foo
** Bar
** Baz
*<li style="list-style:none;">Now my comment is over. {{tildes}}</li><!--{{subst:i*}}-->}}<!-- Template:Mra -->

Any reply can now continue as an <code><nowiki>**</nowiki></code> or <code><nowiki>*:</nowiki></code> without issue.

Use the {{param|indent}} parameter to add additional indentation before the bullet point:
{{markup|
<nowiki>{{i*|indent=::::|The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy Wikipedian}}</nowiki>|2=::::*<li style="list-style:none;">The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy Wikipedian</li><!--{{subst:i*}}-->}}<!-- Template:Mra -->
