Do you add a full stop at the end of each entry on a list?
Lists are effective ways to summarise points. They make content glanceable and are much easier on the eyes than a series of sentences. Here are the general rules for list entries: 1. Add full stops to the end of each entry if they're proper sentences. This means any entry that follows proper sentence structure and contains other punctuation. You see it at work with this list that you're reading right now. 2. Avoid full stops if they're short, fragmented statements or standalone words, as commonly seen in shopping lists.
