Template:EnglishList

Usage

This template acts as a function to convert a comma or other separated list string into an English list (a list with the word "and" or "or" before the last element). It is designed to be combined with inline DPL lists.

{{EnglishList
  |text=<List of items>
  |sep=<Optional separator string/character that exists between words;
         default is the ascii comma code (&#44;)>
  |andstr=<Optional string to use instead of " and ".
            A typical application may use " or " instead.
            Note: to get spacing correct, you need to use the ascii space code (&#x0020;)
             (i.e. "&#x0020; or &#x0020;")
}}

Notes

• The input text is only altered if the specified separator, or the default ",", exists within it.
