The archive box template should also be placed on the archive pages to ensure easy navigation between the different archives, current talk page, and main article. The archive box to the right can be used to toggle between the four different archives and the [[Template talk:Archive box]] page.
If all the archives of a talk page are numbered (<tt>/Archive 1</tt>, <tt>/Archive 2</tt> etc.), you can use the <tt>auto</tt> parameter to display links to them all automatically. Choosing the yes option will list the archives with numbers only:
:::<font size="4">ARCHIVE 2</font>
{{archive box|auto=yes}}
<pre>{{archive box|auto=yes}}</pre>
 
The list will update itself when new archives are added. If there are also named archives, you can add links to these as well. See the additional links shown in the archive box below:
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Alternatively, setting the <tt>auto</tt> parameter to "long" will give a prose version; all other parameter values will trigger the numerical format above, so if you want longer and more visible links, try:
{{archive box|auto=long|
[[{{BASEPAGENAME}}/Archive 3|December 2005 - January 2006]] and
[[{{BASEPAGENAME}}/Deletion discussion|Deletion discussion]]}}
<pre>{{archive box|auto=long|
[[{{BASEPAGENAME}}/Archive 3|December 2005 - January 2006]] and
[[{{BASEPAGENAME}}/Deletion discussion|Deletion discussion]]}}</pre>

The archive box template should also be placed on the archive pages to ensure easy navigation between the different archives, current talk page, and main article. The archive box to the right can be used to toggle between the four different archives and the Template talk:Archive box page.
