Template:Archiving/doc

Use this template on a talk page when you are archiving it to prevent edit conflicts (like {{inuse}}).

If archiving a section (e.g. via cut and paste), do

{{archiving|section=yes}}

(actually, you can set section to anything, but yes makes the most sense)

Please do not substitute this template, as it uses ParserFunctions.
