Template documentation[ view · edit · history · purge ]

This documentation is transcluded from Template:Read more/doc.

The read_more template is used to collapse text or content.

Usage

Surround the text or content to be collapsed with a single {{Read more}}, or a pair of {{Read more top}} and {{Read more bottom}}.

Template parameters

Parameter	Description		Default	Status
`1` text content	collapsed text or content		empty	required
`header`	header		(read more ...)	optional
`bg`	background	Sets the background color of header. (Note: to avoid the afterimage issue of the toggle animation, explicitly specification of background color is recommended)	empty	optional
`expand`	expand	Sets non-empty to expand by default.	empty	optional

Template data

Parameter text is empty

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.
