Editing Template:Tree list/doc

This family of templates  can be used to create a properly structured and accessible tree. This can be used to display family trees, succession to thrones, etc. They comprise:
{{Tree list}}
* {{tl|Tree list}}
** {{tl|Tree list/end}}
** {{tl|Tree list/branching}}
{{Tree list/end}}

== Syntax ==
=== Start and finish of the tree ===
The tree must include a start and finish, using the templates {{tl|Tree list}} and {{tl|Tree list/end}} respectively. The tree is essentially a series of nested lists built with the asterisk *.

<pre>
{{Tree list}}
* Here goes the content of the tree using asterisks.
{{Tree list/end}}
</pre>

=== The branches of the tree ===
Each branch of the tree is built using nested lists:
<pre>{{Tree list}}
* A first level branch
** A second level branch
*** A third level branch
{{Tree list/end}}</pre>
produces
{{Tree list}}
* A first level branch
** A second level branch
*** A third level branch
{{Tree list/end}}

=== Unlabelled branches ===
An unlabelled branch may be formed by using the {{tl|Tree list/branching}} template.
<syntaxhighlight lang="tid">{{Tree list}}
* A first level branch
** {{Tree list/branching}}
*** A third level branch
*** Another third level branch
*** The final third level branch
** A second level branch
** {{Tree list/branching}}                 <!--- This branch ends the second level --->
*** A third level branch
*** The final third level branch
{{Tree list/end}}</syntaxhighlight>
produces the following:
{{Tree list}}
* A first level branch
** {{Tree list/branching}}
*** A third level branch
*** Another third level branch
*** The final third level branch
** A second level branch
** {{Tree list/branching}}
*** A third level branch
*** The final third level branch
{{Tree list/end}}
