In general, bulleted list items begin with a lowercase letter and do not end in a period, unless each item forms a complete sentence.
Note: Each list should be capitalized and punctuated consistently even if there is a mix of complete and incomplete sentences. If the list contains mostly incomplete sentences, then each item begins with a lowercase letter and does not end in a period.
