Steps to replicate the issue (include links if applicable):
Issue: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Adverse_childhood_experiences#Incarceration
What happens?:
Whenever a table is used in a bullet point (probably at the end of the bullet point), the indent for any number of bullets, starting at one, starts the indent from the indent of the table in question, hence the bullets of stack 1 and 2 (* and * *) are indented as if there were two more bullet indents, equivalent to "* * *" and "* * * *" (stack 3 or 4), even if the table was terminated (</table>).
(spaces are used because asterisks will bold text then)
What should have happened instead?:
The base bullet stack should have reset to 0 (it was 2 when I previewed my comment). After </table>, the single "*" (stack 1) made the bullet point indented as if there were 3 asterisks (bullet stack 3) and same for "* *"/stack 2, resulting in indentation of bullet stack 4. They should have resulted in indentations equivalent to those of bullet stacks 1 and 2, respectively.

... :::Let's break [[WP:SYNTH]] down and see how it relates to the situation: :::* Do not combine material from multiple sources to state or imply a conclusion not explicitly stated by any of the sources. :::** Based on my now reverted additions to the article:<table> :::<tr><td>Article text</td><td>36</td><td>37</td><td>85</td></tr> :::<tr><td>Parental incarceration significantly disrupts the household environment, thus potentially altering the development of young children and infants.</td><td>"Young children, who are still forming their sense of security and attachment, may struggle to adjust to these upheavals. This instability can have long-term consequences for their cognitive and emotional development."</td><td><i>N/A</i></td><td>''N/A''</td></tr> :::<tr><td>These significant life changes can lead to financial issues, especially if the incarcerated parent was the primary holder of financial responsibilities for the household.</td><td>"Incarceration often leaves families in financial distress, particularly if the incarcerated parent was the primary breadwinner."</td><td><i>N/A</i></td><td>''N/A''</td></tr> :::<tr><td>Research shows that children of incarcerated parents face significant cognitive and health challenges during their development.</td><td>"Young children, who are still forming their sense of security and attachment, may struggle to adjust to these upheavals. This instability can have long-term consequences for their cognitive and emotional development."</td><td>"Research indicates that children of incarcerated parents face formidable cognitive and health-related challenges throughout their development."</td><td>''N/A''</td></tr> :::<tr><td>The effects also depend on the type of ACEs experienced with studies showing that people who had an incarcerated parent during childhood are significantly more likely to be incarcerated themselves.</td><td>"Studies indicate that children of incarcerated parents are significantly more likely to be arrested or incarcerated as adults."</td><td>"While certainly not all children who experience parental incarceration are destined to become incarcerated themselves, the arrest and incarceration of a parent is a painful experience, and has been linked to a child’s own, eventual justice system involvement."</td><td>''N/A''</td></tr> :::<tr><td>A study regarding African Americans shows that African American children are: :::* ''(1 intermediate list item)''</td><td>''N/A''</td><td>''N/A''</td><td>"... :::* An African American child is six times as likely as a white child to have or have had an incarcerated parent." :::* ..."</td></tr> :::<tr><td>...

If someone can answer this, then I would have a better understanding. :::* '''If a single source says "A" in one context, and "B" in another, without connecting them, and does not provide an argument of "therefore C", then "therefore C" cannot be used in any article.''' :::** '''''Our problem appears to be here!'' We should consider other mentions of my additions in the sources, should any discuss what I tried to add in multiple contexts, without connection nor a conclusive argument. We could also add more sources, but this should be a last resort.''' :::'''[[User:Faster than Thunder|Faster than Thunder]] ([[User talk:Faster than Thunder|talk]] | [[Special:Contributions/Faster than Thunder|contributions]])''' 04:41, 22 February 2025 (UTC)
