             Bug #: 34564
           Summary: Numbered Lists can only be started from index 1. if
                    using media-wiki syntax
           Product: MediaWiki
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: Parser
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [email protected]
    Classification: Unclassified
   Mobile Platform: ---


It is not currently possible to produce ordered lists using the # style syntax
from an index of 1., 

In the following :
http://en.wikisource.org
/wiki/Page:The_Cutter%27s_Practical_Guide_1898_Edition_Part_1.djvu/14

There are a number of lists which start from an index which is NOT 1.

According to http://www.w3schools.com/html5/tag_ol.asp the ol tag (which is
what I am assuming is being used to generate the lists), has the option to
specify the starting index. 

MediaWiki doesn't seem to have a way of specifying the relevant param meaning 
that to do the appropriate formatting I have to format using RAW HTML, which is
something of a hack, and might 'break stuff'.

Much appreciated if the parser could be updated in a manner that allows
for a list using # style syntax to specify an arbitary start index.
