Usage of periods/full stop

ピリオドについて
◎Periods

Never use periods after centered heads and running heads. They are not necessary after captions or legends not in complete sentence form, after items in a column, and at the end of entries in an index.
Note that the items in a list should be parallel in construction, that is, all phrases or all sentences; however, if one item in the list is a complete sentence and therefore requires a period, then each item in the list, including phrases, should end with a period.
