Examples
This example shows a banner holder grouping multiple {{Copied}} and {{Translated page}} templates, with an altered image icon:
{{Banner holder |collapsed=yes |text=This page contains text [[WP:CWW|copied]] or [[WP:TFOLWP|translated]] from other articles |image=Merge-arrow-3.svg |size=36 |
{{Copied |from=SRC |from_oldid=rev |to=DEST |to_diff=dest-rev |to_oldid=prev-rev |date=DATE}}
{{translated page|de|ICE 1|version=45565777|insertversion=210289191}}
}}
 | This page contains text copied or translated from other articles |
Choosing banners to collapse
The choice of which banners to collapse is left up to editors' discretion. Some banners have dedicated collapse headers, such as:
- WikiProjects – {{WikiProject banner shell}}
- Redirect categories – {{Redirect category shell}}
- {{On this day}} templates – self-collapsing
