Template documentation

This template is used to close discussions on a talk page or a noticeboard.

When used on a talk page this template should only be used by uninvolved editors or administrators in conjunction with the talk page guidelines and relevant advice at refactoring. It should not be used by involved parties to end a discussion over the objections of other editors.

Usage

Place this template below the header containing the discussion, then place Template:Discussion bottom at the end of the discussion. A summary of the conclusions reached may be included as a parameter.

Again: Place it below the header. Do not include the header, it will break archiving bots!

Examples

{{Discussion top|reason=The result of this discussion was '''Template created'''...}}

*How about calling it ''discussion top'' and ''discussion bottom''?
