When writing bulleted items, what are the rules for placing periods? Presumably bulleted items that aren't sentences wouldn't require punctuation: - Orange - Apple - Banana But how about sentence bullets? - I am happy - She was happy - He is happy still Should that be: - I am happy. - She was happy. - He is happy still? And how do I distinguish between cases? What happens if there are multiple sentences per bullet? **Update:** This is actually going to be published from a corporate website, so the house rules are less clearly defined in that case, but I think that is a great point regardless.
