How can I align items under the 'See also' section?

I'm adding:

==See also==

'name' is mentioned in the book 'BOOSEY & HAWKES: THE PUBLISHING STORY' written by Helen Wallace.

[[Space:%27Boosey_%26_Hawkes%2C_the_Publishing_Story%27_by_Helen_Wallace-1|'Boosey & Hawkes, the Publishing Story' by Helen Wallace-1]]

to profiles, some of which I'm not the PM.

When the 'See also' section already exists, my additional item does not align properly, but partly goes to the left hand margin. Examples are:

https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Bach-217

https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/ბალანჩივაძე-4

https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Humby-93

All advice warmly received. Thank you.

Use an asterisk hard up against the left edge.
From a style standpoint, there are only a few that have a "two" == that are allowed - otherwise it will give you an error. See Also is not one of them. So typically, you would find the breakdown something like:

== Biography ==

== Sources ==

=== See Also ===

By giving it "three" ===, you will avoid the error and put the items in the See Also within the Sources subsection.
Or... what Chris said below! Looks like he and I were typing at the same time, but I think he's got the official way to do it and I'm finding out I might need to adjust how I've been doing it - thanks, Chris!
Thank you Melanie, I had wondered how to achieve that effect.

Best wishes.

Mike

You have a line break between ' ....Wallace.' and '[[Space ...' which terminates the bullet list. You need to delete that.

Wonderful service! Thank you Andrew. Best wishes.
Hi Michael,

Small note: In our standard style, "See also" should be plain text instead of a headline. https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Help:Biographies

Cheers,

Chris
Thank you Chris. I've got me some work to do! Best wishes. Mike
