Given this example, here's what the current Template:Listing generates:

Several variations have been proposed:
- Move "price" to the end:
- Shakespeare's Globe (The Globe Theatre), 21 New Globe Walk (along the south embankment), +44 (0)20 7401 9919, October-April 10AM-5PM daily, May-September 9AM-5PM daily.

Tickets for plays are often available on the day, particularly if you are prepared to stand in the yard. Tickets £15-32 (£5 standing-only tickets available).
- Move "price" to the end, and italicize "hours" and "price":

- Move "price" to the end, and italicize everything except the description:

There are other combinations, such as de-italicizing the "alt" tag (it's already in parentheses, so why does it need to be italicized as well?), and leaving "phone" un-italicized (italicizing it makes it hard to use italics to indicate the local vs non-local portion of a number, something I support doing).
I can mock up others (or help yourself), but so far there seems to be agreement that "price" should move back to the end like it used to be. It makes sense to discuss price after describing what's available at the place, and it's a logical place for adding extra information about reservations, dress code, etc.
