This template is intended to be used in a list in the article itself, rather than in a navigation template like Template:Navbox. Based on Template:Reflist, but different in that the text to be displayed is manually created rather than a list of references.

Usage

{{columns-list|number of columns|
text (usually a list)
}}

If the number of columns is omitted, two columns will be used.

This template uses CSS3 multiple column layout and is not supported by all browsers.
