Template:Collapse bottom

This documentation is transcluded from Template:Collapse top/doc.

The collapse template is used for placing collapse boxes around discussions.

Usage

{{Collapse bottom}}

Place {{Collapse top}} and {{Collapse bottom}} around the text to be collapsed. 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.

TemplateData

TemplateData is a way to store information about template parameters (the description of those and of the whole template) for both humans and machines. It is used by VisualEditor and possibly other tools like Upload Wizard.


Existing template documentation
At Wikimedia Commons, it is recommended to use {{TemplateBox}} with either ‎useTemplateData=1 or ‎useTemplateData=only on the ‎/doc subpage and transcluding it with {{Documentation}} into the template. ‎<nowiki>-tags can be wrapped around the arguments, if required, to avoid templates being expanded.

Newly created template documentation and imports
Another option, especially for imported templates, or for users with JSON experience, is placing raw ‎<templatedata>-tags into the Wikitext of the template, as described in various Wikipediae.

Discussion
There is an ongoing discussion about that matter. Feel invited to comment if you are experienced in either way, your time permits and if you like to share your opinion or to make a suggestion.
