List articles about Italy and Spain (7)

I believe the answer is:

itemise

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'list' is the definition.
(to itemise is to create a list)

'articles about italy and spain' is the wordplay.
'articles' becomes 'item' (I can't justify this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'about' shows that the letters should be reversed in order.
'italy' becomes 'i'.
'and' says to put letters next to each other.
'spain' becomes 'es' (es is an abbreviation for Spain).
'i' put after 'es' is 'esi'.
'esi' in reverse letter order is 'ise'.
'item'+'ise'='ITEMISE'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for itemise that I've seen before include "make inventory" , "List in detail" , "List exhaustively" , "List each thing separately" , "catalogue" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
