Description:
If a template contains a section that looks like:
...
! Shopping list
| [[Has shopping list::{{{Shopping list|}}}
...
...and in a page that calls that template, the value for the "Shopping list" field (whether or not it was populated by a form) looks like:
* Apples * Bananas * Carrots
...then the first line will be displayed incorrectly: it will show up as "* Apples", instead of "Apples" after a bullet. This is because, in MediaWiki, "*" is only recognized as a bullet in a list if it is the very first thing on a line. (The same holds for "#", for numbered lists.)
The solution for this is simple: add a newline to the template, so that it instead looks like:
...
! Shopping list
|
[[Has shopping list::{{{Shopping list|}}}
...
