The list of articles should be in a bullet point format. Each bullet point starts with the article's name, in bold. If there is an icon associated with it, include it, using {{tem|icon}}. After the article's link, there should be a colon and a brief introduction to what the subject is about, and how it is different from the rest of the disambiguation links; this introduction should start in lowercase (it's still the same sentence) and end in a period.
