Punctuation
Bullet points
Here’s how to do them. If the sentence before the bullets ends with a colon (like this one):
- start each point with a lower case letter (Word might try to autocorrect you so watch out for it)
- don’t punctuate at the end of each line
- finish the last one with a full stop.
If the bullets are a self-contained list (ie there’s no sentence ending in a colon before them) do them like this.
- Capital letter at the start of each one.
- And a full stop at the end of each one.
If your bullet points are all questions, ignore the above and start them with caps (even if you’ve got a colon). Because otherwise it looks a bit weird.
If your bullet points are answering a question, what do you do?
- Capital letter at the start of each one.
- Full stop at the end of each one.
