Introduction
[edit]How archive works
[edit]When there are quite a few posts in the talk page, the oldest ones (except for welcome) will be moved to the archive pages. Also, at the end of the year, all posts will be moved to the archive (except for welcome). At then, a new archive page will be created.
Sorting
[edit]Archives are sorted by year. For example it is year 2222, all the old posts that year will be moved to archive page Archive_2222. On December 31, 2222, all posts will be moved into Archive_2222 and Archive_2223 will be created for next year's use.

[edit]To hold a discussion, place DISCUSSION at the top of the discussion (but below the title). This will indicate that the discussion is in progress. After the discussion is finished, replace DISCUSSION with {{Discussion top}} and place {{Discussion bottom}} at the bottom of the discussion.
