Include the archive box in the article by adding
{{Archive-box|[[/Archive]]}}
to where you want the archive box to appear. How you present a list of archive pages is up to you. You can separate them with commas, pipes (vertical lines: '|') or as lists. See examples below. Notes:
{{Archive-box|[[{{NAMESPACE}}:{{PAGENAME}}/Archive|Archive name]]}}
If using the full page, it is suggested that you include the optional "|Archive name" shown above, using an appropriate name.
The box uses a style that makes it float to the right. This means that where it appears in the page it will be aligned to the right edge of the page (more accurately: the containing box, but that is an unnecessary detail) and all following content will flow around it.
The template contains multiple parameter variables that are intended to give the user additional customization and flexibility when using the template.
title
none
results in no title below the image.alt-title
header
header-color
width
font
border-color
background-color
image
none
results in no image.image-size
For actual examples of the use of this template, use the what links here link in the toolbox on the sidebar, near the top on the left side of this page (unless you are using an unconventional skin ... in which case you probably know what you are doing).
