The Collapse template is used for placing collapse boxes around short discussions and bits of discussions (tables, long code samples, etc.). For entire discussion threads, use {{Collapse top}} and {{Collapse bottom}} instead.

This template should only be used in accordance with the Wikipedia:refactoring guideline; it should never be used to to end a discussion over the objections of other editors, except in cases of unambiguous disruptive editing.

Usage

Note: {{Collapse}} needs to be substed in order for the time stamp functionality to work properly.

{{Collapse|1=Discussion text to be put into box.|2=Optional custom heading}}

It is definitely safest to use the named |1= and |2= parameters, because otherwise any "=" character will break the template.

The bg parameter

The bg parameter is Optional. It changes the background color. use Web color values (e.g. #F0F2F5).

Example

{{Collapse|1=Discussion text to be put into box.|bg=#F0F2F5}} creates:

The padding parameter

The padding parameter adjusts the amount of cell padding (defaults to 8px):

{{Collapse|1=Discussion text to be put into box.|padding=20px}} creates:


Around header text

When used with a section of text, include the section header in the collapsed portion of text. For example, given:

Replace with:

The expand parameter

Simply add |expand=yes to have the box show up in expanded form with a "hide" link, instead of collapsed form with a "show" link. Note: |expand=no does not work, which is lame; to disable the feature, you have to remove the entire |expand parameter and value.
