Hi,

I've set up this page for auto-archiving, as discussed.

Normally, I prefer to explain how to do stuff, but in the case of archive set-up, it's easier to just do it for you. The voodoo to make it work is [DIFFDIFFDIFF here]; the bot should come along within about a day and kick things off. Note the archive box at the top which, currently, will say "no archives yet (create)" - don't create anything, just let the bot do its thing.

It's set to DAYSDAYSDAYS days (DAYSDAYSDAYSd), you might want to change that. Note that it won't archive very small threads or things with no sigs in (ie no date) - you can cut those yourself and paste 'em into the archive page if you want.

So - that's about it; no action required, just let the bot do its thing, and - if I've done it correctly - all should be well. If it goes wrong, of course, give me a shout. Cheers!SIGSIGSIG

Maybe

{{skiptotoctalk}}
{{talkheader}}

Then

{{User:MiszaBot/config
|archiveheader = {{atnhead}}
|maxarchivesize = 150K
|counter = 1
|minthreadsleft = 8
|algo = old(90d)
|archive = Talk:Mara Salvatrucha/Archive %(counter)d
}}
{{User:HBC Archive Indexerbot/OptIn
|target=Talk:Mara Salvatrucha/Archive index
|mask=Talk:Mara Salvatrucha/Archive <#>
|leading_zeros=0
|indexhere=yes}}

Then projects could be collapsed, ie change FROM

{{WP Crime|class=C|importance=Mid}}
{{WikiProject Secret Societies|class=C|importance=high}}

TO

{{WPBS|collapsed=no|1=
{{WP Crime|class=C|importance=Mid}}
{{WikiProject Secret Societies|class=C|importance=high}}
}}

And add

{{AutoArchivingNotice
|small=yes
|age=90
|index=./Archive index
|bot=MiszaBot I}}

Remember to create the index page, with;'
