<br />
The Collapse template is used for placing collapse boxes around discussions. It is a two-part template, used in conjunction with {{#switch: {{BASEPAGENAME}} | Collapse top={{tl|Collapse bottom}} ({{tl|cob}}) | Collapse bottom={{tl|Collapse top}} ({{tl|cot}}) | #default=its paired template }}.<br />
<br />
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.<br />
<br />
== Usage ==<br />
Place {{#ifeq: {{BASEPAGENAME}} | Collapse top | this template | {{tl|collapse top}} }} and {{#ifeq: {{BASEPAGENAME}} | Collapse bottom | this template | {{tl|collapse bottom}} }} around the text to be collapsed. For example:<br />
<br />
<pre>{{Collapse top|This is the title text}}<br />
{{lorem ipsum}}<br />
{{Collapse bottom}}</pre><br />
produces<br />
{{Collapse top|This is the title text}}<br />
{{lorem ipsum}}<br />
{{Collapse bottom}}<br />
<br />
== Parameters ==<br />
This template takes the following parameters, all of which are optional<br />
<br />
;''positional parameter 1'', named parameter 'title': These parameters give the main title of collapsed box, which occurs on the same line as the ''show'' link and is always visible. It defaults to 'Extended content'.<br />
;warning: If this parameter evaluates to true (i.e. is not 0, false, or empty) it will display a default warning line under the main title which reads 'The following is an archived debate. <span style="color:red;">'''Please do not modify it.'''</span>'<br />
;''positional parameter 2'': This is optional warning-line text. It will override the standard warning line above, and obviate the need for setting the 'warning' parameter.<br />
;'expand': If this parameter evaluates to true (i.e. is not 0, false, or empty) it will leave the material uncollapsed with the border and coloring. Default is to collapse the material.<br />
;'bg': Sets the background color of the collapsed material. Defaults to #CFC - a pleasant green. Other colors available from [[List of colors]].<br />
;'border': Sets the width of the border line on the collapsed material. defaults to 1px.<br />
;'b-color': Sets the border color. defaults to silver.<br />
;'padding': Sets the padding on the collapsed material in the colored area. defaults to 8 px<br />
;'width': Sets the width of the overall template. Use <code>|width=700px</code>, not <code>|Width=200px</code> (Upper case "W" doesn't work) or <code>|width=200</code> (omits "px" and doesn't work).<br />
;'border2': Sets the border of the box that appears when template is expanded; defaults to "1px silver" (no provision to change from a solid line)<br />
;'bg2': Sets background of the box that appears when template is expanded; defaults to white.<br />
<br />
If an entire section is being archived, remove the section header and add it as the first parameter of the template. This keeps the section header from showing in the TOC.<br />
