Usage

This template is a self-reference and so is part of the Wikipedia project rather than the encyclopaedic content.

Collapsible option

This template's initial visibility currently defaults to collapsed, meaning that it is hidden apart from its title bar.

To change this template's initial visibility, the |state= parameter may be used:

• {{Manual of Style|state=expanded}} will show the template expanded, i.e. fully visible.
• {{Manual of Style|state=autocollapse}} will show the template autocollapsed, i.e. if there is another collapsible item on the page (a navbox, sidebar, or table with the collapsible attribute), it is hidden apart from its title bar, but if not, it is fully visible.
