{{Uses TemplateStyles|Template:Archive top/styles.css}}

The pair of templates {{tl|Archive top}} and {{tl|Archive bottom}} is used to close discussions on a talk page or a noticeboard.

When used on a talk page, these templates should be used in conjunction with the [[Bharatpedia:Talk page guidelines|talk page guidelines]] and relevant advice at [[Bharatpedia:Refactoring talk pages]]. Based on the type of discussion, they can sometimes be used by involved parties to end a discussion.

=== Usage ===
<syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext">{{Archive top|status=|result=}}</syntaxhighlight>
<syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext">{{Archive bottom}}</syntaxhighlight>

Place the {{tl|Archive top}} template below the header containing the discussion, then place {{tl|Archive bottom}} at the end of the discussion.

'''Do not include main section headers''': including main headers will disrupt archiving bots.

The templates have shorthand names: {{tl|atop}} and {{tl|abot}}.

=== Parameters ===
The template {{tl|Archive top}} takes three optional parameters, used for creating a floating box for discussion results:

* <code>status</code>: <code>resolved</code>, <code>withdrawn</code>, <code>moved</code>, <code>none</code>, or any short custom phrase.  A brief header (uppercased) to indicate the status of the discussion. Another name for this parameter is "head".
* <code>result</code>: the result of the discussion. Another name for this parameter is "body".
* <code>bg</code>: the background color for the discussion box. Accepts any valid [[Web colors#HTML color names|HTML color name]] or [[Web colors#Hex triplet|hex triplet]]. Default is <code>EDEAFF</code>.

These parameters are passed through to [[Template:Quote box]] to create the result box.

=== Examples ===

<syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext" style="width: 60%>{{Archive top}}

{{Archive bottom}}</syntaxhighlight>
