<translate>
The <tvar name=1>{{Collapse top}}</tvar> template, and its paired template <tvar name=2>{{Collapse bottom}}</tvar>, are used for placing a collapse box around a talk page discussion.
</translate>
<translate> Place <tvar name=1>{{Collapse top}}</tvar> and <tvar name=2>{{Collapse bottom}}</tvar> around the text to be collapsed.</translate>
<translate> For example:</translate>
{{Collapse top|title=This is the title text}}
Sample contents text
{{Collapse bottom}}
<translate>
produces:
</translate>
This is the title text
Sample contents text
|}
<translate>
<tvar name=1>{{Collapse bottom}}</tvar> should always be placed on its own line.
Parameters
</translate>
<translate> This template takes the following parameters, all of which are optional.</translate>
<translate> They are case-sensitive.</translate>
<translate> Those that take CSS measurements require them in CSS format (e.g. <tvar name=1>1em</tvar> not <tvar name=2>1 em</tvar>).</translate>
|1=<translate> (or first unnamed parameter)</translate>, |title=, |reason=, |header=, |heading=
<translate> Will give the collapsed box a title, which occurs on the same line as the show link and is always visible.</translate> <translate> It defaults to "Extended content".</translate>
<translate> For example, <tvar name=1>{{Collapse top|title=This is the title text}}</tvar> or <tvar name=2>{{Collapse top|This is the title text}}</tvar>.</translate> <translate> Note: The shorter, unnamed markup will not work if the title value contain an equals (<tvar name=1>=</tvar>) character.</translate>
|warning=yes
<translate> Will display a default warning line under the main title which reads "The following is a closed debate. {{<tvar name=1>Strong|style=color:red</tvar>|Please do not modify it.}}"</translate>
<translate> Any non-empty value supplied to this parameter will have this effect (i.e. <tvar name=1>|warning=</tvar> will not work as expected).</translate>
|2=<translate> (or second unnamed parameter)</translate>
<translate> This is optional warning-line text.</translate> <translate> It will override the standard warning line above; it is not necessary to also use <tvar name=1>|warning=yes</tvar> in this case, though doing so is harmless.</translate>
|left=yes
<translate> Will align the title along the left margin (in RTL languages, along the right margin instead).</translate>
<translate> By default, text is centered, specifically between the left edge of the green box and the left edge of the "show" link.</translate>
<translate> Any non-empty value supplied to this parameter will have this effect (i.e. <tvar name=1>|left=</tvar> will not work as expected).</translate>
|expand=yes
<translate> Will leave the material uncollapsed with the border and coloring.</translate> <translate> Default is to collapse the material.</translate>
<translate> Any non-empty value supplied to this parameter will have this effect (i.e. <tvar name=1>|expand=</tvar> will not work as expected).</translate>
|bg=
<translate> Sets the background color of the title of the collapsible bar.</translate> <translate> Defaults to "<tvar name=1>#F8FCFF</tvar>", a whitish color.</translate> <translate> Named colors are listed at List of colors.</translate>
<translate> For example, <tvar name=1>{{Collapse top|This is the title text|bg=#008000}}</tvar> or <tvar name=2>{{Collapse top|This is the title text|bg=green}}</tvar> (numeric HTML color codes require the leading <tvar name=H>#</tvar>).</translate>
|fc=
<translate> Sets the font color of the title of the collapsible bar.</translate> <translate> Defaults to "<tvar name=1>black</tvar>".</translate>
<translate> See <tvar name=bg>|bg=</tvar>, above, for details on color options.</translate>
|border=
<translate> Sets the width of the border line on the collapsed material.</translate> <translate> Defaults to <tvar name=1>1px</tvar>.</translate>
<translate> For example, <tvar name=1>{{Collapse top|border=2px}}</tvar>; going much thicker than this is not very useful.</translate>
|b-color=
<translate> Sets the border color.</translate> <translate> Defaults to <tvar name=1>silver</tvar> (<tvar name=2>#C0C0C0</tvar>).</translate>
<translate> See <tvar name=bg>|bg=</tvar>, above, for details on color options.</translate>
|padding=
<translate> Sets the padding (distance from borders) on the collapsed material inside the colored area.</translate> <translate> Defaults to <tvar name=1>8px</tvar>.</translate>
|width=
<translate> Sets the width of the overall template relative to the page (or a block element containing the collapse box).</translate> <translate> This should virtually always be given as a percentage, e.g. <tvar name=1>|width=50%</tvar>, or in relative <tvar name=2>em</tvar> units, e.g. <tvar name=3>|width=30em</tvar>.</translate> <translate> Pixel-based values should be avoided, as they are effectively meaningless – the result will be different depending on each user's browser and local CSS settings (which browser and operating system it is, zoom level, font sizes, etc.).</translate>
|border2=
<translate> Sets the properties of the border of the box that appears when template is expanded.</translate> <translate> Defaults to <tvar name=1>1px silver</tvar> (there is no provision to change from a solid line).</translate>
<translate> For example, <tvar name=1>{{Collapse top|border2=2px}}</tvar> (only width or color will be changed if only one value is supplied).</translate>
<translate> See <tvar name=bg>|bg=</tvar>, above, for details on color options.</translate>
|bg2=
<translate> Sets the background color of the box that appears when template is expanded; defaults to <tvar name=1>white</tvar> (<tvar name=2>#FFF</tvar>).</translate>
<translate> See <tvar name=bg>|bg=</tvar>, above, for details on color options.</translate>
|indent=
<translate> Indents the box from the left of the page.</translate> <translate> Defaults to no indentation.</translate> <translate> Each <tvar name=1>:</tvar> in talk page markup is approximately equivalent to <tvar name=2>1.6em</tvar> of indent (e.g., to match <tvar name=3>::::</tvar> indentation level, use <tvar name=4>|indent=6.4em</tvar>).</translate> <translate> You can also use a percentage value.</translate>
<translate> Pixel-based values should be avoided (see <tvar name=1>|width=</tvar>, above, for the reason).</translate>
<translate>
