< Template:Archive list alpha
This is the template sandbox page for Template:Archive list alpha (diff).
Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]
This template uses Lua:
  • Module:Archive list alpha (sandbox)

Usage

edit

This template can be applied to any talk page or discussion archive, and will return links to all the lettered archives of that page or its parent page. In order for the template to work, the archives must follow the format Talk:PAGENAME/Archive A, with a capital A, a space before the number, continuing (.../Archive X, .../Archive Y, .../Archive Z, .../Archive AA). This template should not be substituted – that way, the list of links will update itself whenever a new lettered archive is added.

Valid parameters for {{archive list}} are:

  • root=<root> to specify a root other than that of the current page from which the template is transcluded
  • links=# where the number is how many links per line. The default is 10 links per line
  • nobr=yes set to yes to remove all line breaks. This parameter cannot be used in conjunction with links=.
