Please do not edit this page unless you're wanting to edit the manual itself, it is an example included in the manual.

Example

The following is an example of how to use the variable %NR% to set the font size. This will list articles in Category:Fruit examples, by title (in descending order), limited to a count of four. Each result will be formatted to appear on a new line and the font size will be set using a parser function (math) expression, to calculate the current article sequence number (starting from 1) times 0.5em, which will increase the font size each subsequent article. 

{{#dpl:
|category    = Fruit examples
|count       = 3
|ordermethod = title
|order       = descending
|format      = ,\n<span style="font-size: ²{#expr:%NR% * 0.5}²em;">'''[[%PAGE%]]'''</span>,\n,
}}

Result

{{#dpl: |category = Fruit examples |count = 3 |ordermethod = title |order = descending |format = ,\n%PAGE%,\n, }}
