Template:Collapsible list/doc

Documentation subpage}} Template shortcuts|clist}} lua|Module:Collapsible list}}

This template produces a collapsible list. It is possible to set CSS]] styles for the "frame" (the tag|div}} tags surrounding the list), for the list title, and for the list items. The template supports an unlimited number of list items.

This template is typically used in WP:Infobox|infoboxes]] and WP:NAVBOX|navboxes]]; it should not normally be used in regular article content, per MOS:DONTHIDE]].

Regarding using this template in infoboxes, MOS:DONTHIDE acknowledges that "a few infoboxes also use pre-collapsed sections for infrequently accessed details. If [such] information ... seems extraneous or trivial enough to inspire pre-collapsing it, consider raising a discussion on the article (or template) talk page about whether it should be Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not#Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information|included at all]]."
