Syntax

{{Collapsed text
| name (alias = 1)
| content (alias = 2)
| show
| hide
}}

The following parameters are required:

• The |name= parameter is the collapsible section's name. Its not visible, but it should be unique per page. This must be a single word, use camelCase, "_" or "-" instead of spaces if necessary. If there are two collapsible sections with the same name on the same page, the buttons will toggle both of them. (Because the name is how they tell the difference) The first unnamed parameter also works as an alias for this one.
• The |content= parameter contains whatever should be collapsed. The second unnamed parameter also works as an alias for this one.

Using optional parameters, the text of the opening and closing buttons can be customised.

• |hide= this parameter sets the text for the button which hides the content, defaults to "Hide".
• |show= this parameter sets the text for the button which shows the content again after it has been hidden, defaults to "Show" and is initially hidden (until the content gets hidden)

{{Collapsed text |name=example |content=Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat. Duis aute irure dolor in reprehenderit in voluptate velit esse cillum dolore eu fugiat nulla pariatur.
