    With checkboxes you can create simple to-do lists
    Insert Checkbox : A checkbox is a single checkbox element. You insert a checkbox by clicking the Menu Icon Btn-Wikicode-Checkbox.png or the 'Checklist elements' dropdown item. Ticking the checkbox in view mode alternates the checkbox hook between false and checked and updates the article's version history, edit mode doesn't update the history. Wikicode: The Code Editor (i.e. not the WYSIWYG Editor) edits checklist tags. i.e. the value="" unchecked states table below or the color hex codes further below. Clicking the Btn-Wikicode-Checkbox.pnginserts only. You need to add the Prepare Mail identifier.
                            <bs:checklist value="checked" /> Prepare Mail
    <bs:checklist value="false" /> Book Hotel
    
                        

    Creating Lists[edit | edit source]

    Prepare Checklist : In order to insert a checklist in an article, you must first create a checklist template that contains the necessary check list elements. This is done by creating a new article in the Template namespace. For example create a new article named 'Template:Status'. Then in the Code Editor (i.e. not the WYSIWYG Editor) ad the check list items as exampled above, as a list. Save the Template and remember the Template's name as you need to add this name to Insert list dialogue below.

    Assign colors : To facilitate visibility, you can assign list element colors. This is done by entering the pipe symbol ( straight line ) after the item identifier followed by a HEX color code.

                                * Prepare Mail| #FF9900
    * Book Hotel| #00FF00
    
                            

    Assign colors[edit | edit source]

    To support element status visibility color codes can be linked to the list elements. This is done by adding the pipe symbol (straight line) after the list element name followed by the HEX color Code.
