Editing Module:Archive list/doc (section)

== Parameters ==

Valid parameters are:
* <code>root = ''<root>''</code> - use this to specify a root other than that of the page from which the template is transcluded.
* <code>links = ''#''</code> - the number of links to display per line. The default is 10.
* <code>nobr = ''yes''</code> - set this to <code>''yes''</code> to remove all line breaks. This parameter cannot be used in conjunction with {{para|links}}.
* <code>prefix = ''<prefix>''</code> - a custom prefix for the archives, without the number. The default is "Archive ".
* <code>prefixspace = ''yes''</code> - adds a space between the prefix and the archive number for prefixes specified with {{para|prefix}}.
* <code>linkprefix = ''<linkprefix>''</code> - a custom prefix for the display links, without the number. The default is blank. If auto=long, use 'none' to have it blank.
* <code>prefixspace = ''yes''</code> - adds a space between the link prefix and the archive number for prefixes specified with {{para|linkprefix}}.
* <code>sep = ''<sep>''</code> - the separator for archive links. The default value is the comma separator for the language set in your preferences: "<code>{{int:comma-separator}}</code>". If this is set to either <code>''dot''</code> (<code>{{int:dot-separator}}</code>), <code>''pipe''</code> (<code>{{int:pipe-separator}}</code>), <code>''comma''</code> (<code>{{int:comma-separator}}</code>), or <code>''tpt-languages''</code> (<code>{{int:tpt-languages-separator}}</code>), then it uses that separator as specified for your default language. If it is any other value, that value is used as it is. If this module is called from #invoke then whitespace is stripped, but if called from another module then whitespace is preserved. This allows for other modules to use this module to create wikitables, etc. If called from #invoke, the whitespace problem can be worked around by using <code>&amp;#32;</code> (for spaces) and <code><nowiki><br /></nowiki></code> (for new lines).
* <code>linesep = ''<linesep>''</code> - the separator for lines of archive links. The possible input values are the same as for the {{para|sep}} parameter, and the default separator text is <code><nowiki><br /></nowiki></code>. How often the value is displayed depends on the value of {{para|links}}.
* <code>start = ''#''</code> - the archive number to start listing archives from. This must be smaller than the largest archive number, or {{para|max}} if it is specified.
* <code>max = ''#''</code> - the largest archive number to list. This overrides the automatic detection of archive page numbers.
* <code>auto = ''long''</code> - outputs as a table. Changes default value of links to 3 and linkprefix to 'Archive '.
* <code>leavefirstcellblank = ''yes''</code> - leave the first cell of the first row empty, so that each row starts on a multiple of the number of links per line. In other words, this aligns the first column to contain round numbers (multiples of the <code>''links''</code> param). This can make long archive lists easier to read. This option is off by default for compatibility.
