User Talk Archiving Primer
- Create a new User Talk Page with the suffix "/Archive 1". Here is the link to it. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Username/Archive 1
- It will say that the page does not exist yet. Go and press edit.
- Add at the top the following code. {{User:Cumbrowski/usertalkarchivenav}}
- Open your default talk page at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Username and press edit.
- Select everything you want to archive and cut it out of the page ("Ctrl-X")
- Paste the content into the new talk page after the {{User:Cumbrowski/usertalkarchivenav}} template
- Add a link on your standard talk page to the Archive page {{archive box|auto=yes}} *
* You can also use {{archive box|auto=long}} instead to make the linke to the archive pages on your main talk page include the word "Archive X" in the anchor text instead of just "X". - Save the standard talk page and you are done
- Notes
- The next archive pages would work the same, just call them .../Archive 2 ..../Archive 3 etc.
- The {{User:Cumbrowski/usertalkarchivenav}} template is a modified version of the {{atnhead}} template and adds the little box to the archive which you can see here User_talk:Cumbrowski/Archive 1. It creates a link to your current talk page automatically (that's why the specific name .../Archive X). It also adds a little navigation to the previous and next archive page. In addition to that (my custom part) does it add a reference to your user page and shows your name (that it is your user talk archive) and the {{userpage}} at the bottom. I also changed the font sizes and colors to emphasis the important parts.
- The {{archive box|auto=yes}} on your main user talk page creates a little "Archive" box with links to all your archive pages automatically. You don't have to change that one anymore. It automatically detects, if new archive pages were created.
