@domob1812 Would you be able to review this? I shall be obliged.

ACK 11131a9. I'm not a native speaker, but to me it makes more sense like this.

NACK. The wording on the site is not equivalent to the misquote in OP. It is standard practice in English for bulleted lists to be worded this way; the bullets are not to be interpreted as suffixes for the sentence prior to the list.

Source on this "standard practice"?

APA style guide:

Items That Are Phrases. If bulleted list items are phrases or sentence fragments (i.e., not full sentences), begin each bulleted item with a lowercase letter (for exceptions, such as proper nouns, see Sections 6.14–6.21). There are two options for punctuating a bulleted list in which the items are phrases or fragments.

Phrases Without End Punctuation. The first option is to use no punctuation after the bulleted items (including the final one), which may be better when the items are shorter and simpler.

Some strategies used by faculty of color in the United States for survival and success on the tenure track include the following:

• learning the rules of the game
• being aware of who possesses power
• working doubly hard
• emphasizing one’s strengths and establishing some authority
• finding White allies (Lutz et al., 2013; Turner et al., 2011)

Phrases With End Punctuation. The second option is to insert punctuation after the bulleted items as though the bullets were not there, following the guidelines in Sections 6.3 and 6.4 for comma and semicolon usage; this option may be better when the items are longer or more complex.

Adolescents may crave the opportunities for peer connection that social media affords because it allows them to

• communicate privately with individuals or publicly with a larger audience,
• seek affirmation by posting pictures or commentary and receiving likes or comments,
• see how their numbers of friends and followers compare with those of their peers, and
• monitor who is doing what with whom by seeing how many peers like and comment on their posts and comparing the feedback they get with what others received (Underwood & Ehrenreich, 2017).

@yanmaani Not trying to sound too snide here, but no native English speaker would react with anything other than a facepalm to citing APA as representative of how native English speakers write.

Also AFAICT that APA quote doesn't even purport to cover this text. The current text is not a phrase, it's a complete sentence with an implied subject.

Not that this matters, since APA's advice is very clearly wrong even for the sample text they provide. (Though I admit it's appropriate that their advice uses Newchurch theological propaganda as the example text.)
