Talk:LaTeX/List Structures

ChrisHodgesUK added a [style] argument and its description to the section on the enumerate environment, but this is a feature added by the enumerate package, which the new text does not mention. Using it without that package causes a confusing error message (about a missing \item---quite unhelpful and misleading). Additionally, the "Customizing Enumerated Lists" section already mentions how to change the label, although Chris's text might be a useful addition to that section, to provide a quick usage summary without having to go to the package docs.

I reverted the change because of the confusion it caused me (and could cause others) pending further discussion of how to better incorporate Chris's contribution, if useful.

 * Well spotted Michael M Hackett. I've put it in the "Customising..." section with a little tweaking, as there was no description of actually using enumerate there, only of doing it manually, as you mentioned above. ChrisHodgesUK (discuss • contribs) 15:56, 9 August 2012 (UTC)

ldots and etc
An anon user pointed out that the 'etc' acronym should not be used before an ellipsis because it is redundant. So we should update the load of pictures displaying this mistake in this page. --Ambrevar (discuss • contribs) 12:01, 4 March 2013 (UTC)
