The {{collapse top}} template (or {{cot}}), and its paired template {{collapse bottom}} (or {{cob}}), are used for placing a collapse box around a talk page discussion, especially when the content contains complex wikimarkup such as tables. For very simple content, the one-piece template {{collapse}} can be used instead.
Usage
Place {{collapse top}} (or {{cot}}), and {{collapse bottom}} (or {{cob}}), around the text to be collapsed. For example:
{{collapse top|This is the title text|OptionalIDToMakeThatEachColapsibleCollapseAndExpandSeparately}}
Sample contents text
{{collapse bottom}}
produces:
| This is the title text
|
| OptionalIDToMakeThatEachColapsibleCollapseAndExpandSeparately
|
|
Sample contents text
