OneClickArchiver allows you to instantly archive a single discussion with a click, via an "archive" link that displays for each section on discussion pages.

Noticeboards and other high-traffic discussion pages, normally archived automatically by bots, have gotten long and less manageable recently due to bot instability. OneClickArchiver was created to better enable experienced editors to clear out old discussions themselves, without having to rely on bots. Any discussion page can be set up to use OneClickArchiver.

Use of this tool does not obviate your responsibility to understand when archiving a thread is appropriate. In particular: Public noticeboards should only be archived by experienced editors. Respect a public page's posted archiving policy; if you are unsure, ask. It is rarely appropriate to archive threads in another user's talk page
